I took it out of the box without thinking I “just in case” threw the box away put it on my bench and it’s been working great I’ve cleaned and shined up one knife so far and it’s working really bitching. Woody ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don’t depend on buffing wheels they come with. *by A***R on February 16, 2026* Buffer solid but buffing wheels are not really usable . They just fly apart . ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great, but bring your own wheels *by M***C on August 8, 2025* I've found this to be perfect for my needs. It's surprisingly quiet and really doesn't vibrate much. I run mine with a leather stropping wheel and a thick cotton wheel for keeping my carving tools sharp and it works great. Do pick up your own wheels for this; the ones that come with it won't last long. ## Frequently Bought Together - POWERTEC 6-Inch Bench Buffer Jewelry Polisher - Includes 2PCs 80Ply Thic Buffing Wheels | Ideal Benchtop Buffing Machine for Polishing Metal, Jewelry, Knives, Wood, Jade, and Plastic (BF601) - SCOTTCHEN Buffing Polishing Wheel 6 inch (70 Ply) Extra Thick for Bench Grinder Tool with 1/2" Arbor Hole 2 PCS - SCOTTCHEN Buffing Polishing Cutting Compounds 4 Oz.
