Expert Review Analysis

The Festool ETS 125 REQ-Plus is a compact, corded random orbital sander featuring a 2 mm sanding stroke designed for fine and superfine finishing. It combines a 250 W motor with Vibration-Stop balancing and Jetstream dust extraction to deliver swirl-free results on vertical, overhead, or detailed surfaces.

✓ Best for: Professional finishers, cabinetmakers, and detail-oriented woodworkers needing swirl-free results on vertical or overhead surfaces. Ideal for pre-sanding or polishing veneers, hardwoods, softwoods, and painted panels, as well as edge work near obstructions.✗ Not ideal for: Users requiring aggressive stock removal or high-speed sanding, as the 12,000-14,000 RPM range is slower than larger models. It is less suitable for tasks requiring unrestricted mobility due to the corded power design.

Pros

✓2 mm sanding stroke provides exceptional fine and superfine finishes with minimal swirls
✓Lightweight 2.4 lb design allows for fatigue-free one-handed overhead and vertical use
