Score: 82/100Rankings

The Worx WX823L.9 is a 20V cordless brushless random orbital sander featuring patented low-vibration technology and variable 3-speed control up to 11,000 SPM. It offers superior runtime and power compared to brushed models, with a dust-sealed switch for durability. Ideal for DIY enthusiasts and occasional professionals needing portable sanding for small to medium projects.

The Makita XOB01Z is a lightweight, cordless 5-inch random orbit sander designed for woodworkers seeking mobile sanding capabilities. It features three electronic speed settings and a large orbit action for swirl-free finishes, making it ideal for jobs away from power outlets. However, the lack of included batteries and the use of a brushed motor are notable trade-offs for professional heavy-duty use.
