Craftsman CMEG100
Score: 70/100Rankings
The Craftsman CMEG100 is a lightweight, corded angle grinder ideal for light-duty tasks like polishing and thin metal cutting. Its high RPM and low weight are advantages, but the lack of overload protection and lower power output make it less suitable for heavy industrial use.
The Black+Decker BDEG400 is an entry-level corded angle grinder featuring a metal housing and included grinding wheel. It lacks advanced features like overload protection or a brushless motor, which limits its performance for heavy-duty applications. It is best suited for occasional, light-duty home use.
