Power to spare!
I needed a new grinder for grinding a concrete patio. My previous one burned out (it was a cheap one - $30, 5.8 amps). I decided to go with a good one this time. It has power to spare (10amp). Never slowed down during my grinding like my old one. It also did not get overheated like my old one. This is a great addition to my tool collection - especially Dewalt.
Even came with a carrying case.
Update (5/19/2012): I also found some auctions for this item here.

“My first grinder”
I’ve used grinders at work but I’ve never owned one of my own. Now dewalt may not be top dog when it comes to technology or enervation (like Bosch or Panasonic) but they usually make simple, tough and reasonably affordable tools. That’s really about all the counts. Most grinders I’ve used seems to be about the same in design so I didn`t care much about witch I picked as long as it was a good name brand. I started my tool collection off with dewalt long ago so that’s what I have stuck with. I like that paddle switch on this one, they are fragile but easy to work with. This particular one is self off locking, there is a little bit you have to rotate to push the switch down that`s on the switch. It was a little strange at first but quickly became comfortable to do. Also this one can be held on, as most can, simple click the paddle and it turns off. The only thing I don’t like is that if you where to drop it that locking mechanism on the paddle part of the switch may brake… The handle is a simple screw in, screw out deal that you can put on ether side of it. I don’t need to cut structural members all day so the 10 amps, 11K rpm and 4-½” size are plenty for round the shop jobs. Fast and powerful enough to cut a car frame but not to fast to use mild “scotch bright” type abrasives if need be. This one has a quick change threaded washer witch can be use for cutting disks or grinding disk without needing a backing ring or spacer for proper clamping and centering.
The case has provisions for holding disks (7/8″ hole), right now I’ve got four 1/8″ cutting, one ¼ grinding and two flap wheels in the holder. The tool still fits level in the case but any more and it might not. I don’t think screw on accessories are made to fit in the holder (as it has a 5/8 thread), but there is room in the case for a crimp brush or what ever else wont fit in the disk holder.
Over all not a bad package for a hundred bucks or so.
