Score: 72/100Rankings
The Porter-Cable PCCW205B is a 20V MAX cordless random orbital sander designed for professional material removal, delivering up to 12,000 OPM. It features a low-profile design with low vibration output and a versatile dust management system including a detachable bag and vacuum port. This bare tool is compatible with all Porter-Cable 20V MAX batteries for platform flexibility.
The DEWALT DWE6423 is a corded random orbital sander with a 3-amp motor and variable speed control, designed for general sanding and fine finishing. Its brushed motor and lack of specified cord length are notable limitations compared to modern brushless tools. It is best suited for DIY woodworkers performing general sanding tasks in a workshop setting.
