BLACK+DECKER BDCMTS Matrix Sander Attachment

I was a bit hesitant to buy the 'Bolt On' tools - until I saw a review that this was "one of the best tools of 2012 - potentially the decade" according to a review. I received the 'starter set' (includes the main body, drill attachment and battery) for Christmas. Soon after I started to look for the best prices on the attachments. I settled on the jigsaw and this sander attachment. Within a few days I had a use for each of them - and they did not disappoint.The Pros:Plenty of power - surprisingly more than a small handheld I used to ownEasy to controlGood assortment of sanding pads included (60, 120 and 240 Grit)Pads swap easilyThe Cons:At some odd angles it can be challenging to hold the trigger down while applying pressure to the surface you're sandingFor some jobs it's too tall and you need a handheld or sanding blockOther:The main body does get fairly warm when using this - but so far no problems so no stars off (yet)Basically it's a convenient and fairly powerful option. I don't know that I would get rid of the handheld sander just yet - but in many applications this wins as part of the set.

I purchased the B&D Matrix Drill because at the time it was the best deal in the store, for some forgotten reason I am a little prejudice against B&D products. Besides being the best price/power option at the store that day I was curious about the attachment functions.I ordered the Sander attachment through Amazon. I have used it for several projects from sanding smaller pieces of wood to smoothing out the end of PVC pipes that were cut a little rough. This sander works fine, I have had no issues with it. It has not been fragile, this was an issue I had first feared.I like that it is easy to replace the sanding pads, and that it is an exchangeable attachment for a single drill. It is not to difficult to exchange the parts when you get the hang of it, it maybe a little difficult to some until they get the hang of it.The only draw back for me is that the sanding pads can only be obtained online in my area, but that is not an issue with the product itself.

The Matrix line of tools are honestly some of the most handy and versatile equipment I've ever used as a DIY homeowner. They just work and work well. The warranty from B&D make it comforting to know you don't have to baby it just because it's not a Milwaukee or Snap On. The space saving is super nice for condo life too. I almost have all of the attachments at this point and they all serve their purpose great when I need them

Good for small projects like chairs or, um, I dunno, small projects. The battery on the Matrix don't last long so that's all you're really able to do right? I would like it if the sander attachment came with more pads as the ones used are proprietary. They're also not very cheap, but again, for small projects I guess it's fine. I do like having the matrix system with me on jobs in case I need to address something small & quickly.

If your expectations are that this will be the best sander in the world then you need to rethink your expectations. For a $30 tool attachment this is great value for money. It is perfect for small projects and has exceeded my expectations. I thought this would do a decent job, but it is actually a good sander, not the best sander but a good one. If you have the matrix system you need to get this.

I go this for my 20v Matrix Drill and it works amazing. I like the Matrix system since I can have numerous attachments and not have to deal with keeping up with numerous tools. The sander works great and being hooked to the drill make sit easy to hold. The unit includes a few things of sand paper, but since this unit has a normal size sand paper you can use any that fit it by just buying whatever grade you need from the store. The unit works great and sands down wood and (I recently had to sand some plastic) perfectly and is easy to hold when doing it. This is a great choice for anyone who has the Matrix drill and wants to be able to sand as well. Highly recommend!!

I ordered this BLACK+DECKER model BDCMTS Matrix Sander Attachment to use with my Black+Decker Matrix power drill. It's nice to have the option to switch out various attachments, such as this sander, or the circular saw. However, the drill itself doesn't seem to provide the same level of power (or torque) as a dedicated power sander tool. The design of the drill makes it easy to sand both softwood and hardwood.

Great Matrix add-on. Attached easy to my matrix drill. The matrix system is great! I finally purchased and used ALL of the add-ons. I and should have purchased the full Matrix system long ago.

Es para trabajos ligeros, no soporta por mucho tiempo el ritmo de trabajo, para áreas extensas sería importante conseguir una batería extra, buen desempeño en trabajos caseros pero en general buenos materiales y funcional, Black and Decker es garantía de herramientas.

Muy buena herramienta, como todo lo fabricado por esta marca.

Exelente trato

Es una herramienta complementaria si tienes el taladro Matrix, es una herramienta básica, si requieres más potencia busca otra opción, para tareas sencillas cumple

Muy bien, nuevos, empaquetados y funcionan a la perfección
