Black & Decker BR300 5.2 Amp 3-Inch by 18-Inch Belt Sander with Cloth Dust Bag Review

I bought this sander at Lowes because it was inexpensive,
about $50, and I also thought that Black and Decker was
still a good name.Used the sander to sand old floor
adhesive off of plywood. The floor was approximately 4'X 6'.
For a brief moment I thought this tool purchase was going
to be worth the price.This is the first belt sander I have
ever used.I went through 4 belts in about 1 hour.
The belts would track true and sand good for a short time.
Then the belts would go off track and cut into the plastic
housing.I could turn it off and manually adjust the belt
back into the proper position but they would just go off track
even quicker after the first time.One of B&D's big selling
points is automtic belt tracking, no adjustment neccesary. It
did not work for me.I returned it to Lowes the next day no
problem.

I was going to buy the variable speed Dewalt until I read the
reviews about it on this site.I was cheap before so I thought
if I spent $200 on a sander I could pretty much expect to get a
good machine but now I am not so sure.I really like the idea
of being able to mount the Dewalt on it's stand and use it as
a fixed sander.Not sure what I am going to do now.
