Orbit or Palm Grip
Expert opinion regarding the best makes and models of DeWalt Sanders vary.

What to look for
At the core of most reviews are two basic requirements. First is the fact that DeWalt sanders are versatile and durable. Second is the particular use for which a sander was purchased in the first place. Therefore it safe to assume that the best DeWalt Sanders are those that provide the highest versatility, most extreme durability while at the same time meets a particular consumer's need. This is what a consumer should look for when trying to determine what DeWalt product is the best.
So what products fit the criteria? Well in sheer number of product reviews and raving reviews, revolving orbit DeWalt model D26453 takes the lead. This is because of the following reasons:
1. The particular model has a 5 inch effectively area and the unit itself is not much bigger. This ensures that the model is lightweight for ease of use but substantially heavy enough to provide enough down force for an effective polish.
2. The D26453 has a variable speed setting from 7000 to 1200 revolutions per minute to allow the user to decide the abrasive effect and can be used for initial sanding as well as finishing polish.
3. The D26453 is five inches for another reason, and this is to better polish at right angles and/or the areas were 2 pieces of wood join.
4. Random orbit Dewalt sanders allow the user to polish a particular area without visible swirl marks that are commonly associated with palm grip sanders.
5. The elliptical revolution of the random orbit sanders ensures that the surface of the material is evenly polished and the abrasive material does not touch the same area more than once. This means that there is less material removed while allowing the sander to last longer.
In closing, popular consensus names D26453 Dewalt sanders as the best make and model to be produced by Dewalt power tools. However, as a consumer must still determine the particular use for which a Sander will be primarily used for and adjust the purchase accordingly.
