Score: 85/100Rankings
The Worx WX822L.9 is a lightweight, cordless detail sander with a unique triangular base and variable speed control, ideal for precision work in confined spaces. Its main limitation is the small sanding surface and the need to buy batteries separately. It is best suited for furniture refinishers and existing Worx ecosystem users needing precision corner and edge work.
The FastCap FastBreak Edge Sander XL is a manual dual-edge hand sander designed for quickly breaking sharp edges on thick materials like melamine and plywood in a single pass. It requires separate purchase of sandpaper refills and is limited to edge breaking tasks. It is ideal for cabinetmakers handling entry doors and large panel stock.

Users generally rate the product positively, particularly those with specific use cases like detail work or existing Worx battery investments. Common praise focuses on ease of use, dust management, and the ability to reach tight corners.
