The dust pad is ideal for both flat and concave/convex surfaces. The included dust bag allows mobile dust collection, while the tool has an interface for vacuum hose attachment. It also has soft-start technology, constant speed and a hook-and-loop backing pad. The sander has a compact shape with close-to-the-workpiece design for control in hard-to-reach areas. Review: Niche Tool but I Love It - This is a bit of a niche tool, but that is the beauty of it. It's not powerful enough to do heavy work, and with vacuum dust collection connected you kill the ergonomic benefits of it– you may as well just be using a bigger, more powerful sander that is not limited by these expensive and small 12v batteries. But this tool is amazing for is the small stuff. Sanding down where you filled, getting pocket hole plugs smooth, quick touch-ups, trim work– this is just perfect. It is super light and super ergonomic, the hand feel is really superb. It is reasonably quiet. The dust collection is perfectly adequate for what it is. The battery life is perfectly adequate for what it is. The power is perfectly adequate for what it is. None of these qualities are especially good, but again, perfectly adequate for what this tool is. Would you be happy with this as your one and only sander? No, I don't think you would– I still use my DeWalt 5" orbital all the time, and my big Bosch 6" orbital even more. If I had to pick just one, it would certainly be one of the other two. That said, I use this all the time. This is really a niche tool, much like the excellent Bosch 12v planer. I love that. In a world where everyone is trying to make tools that are bigger and crazier, I really appreciate that Bosch is making these innovative and well-thought-out smaller tools that really work for working carpenters. Review: Great little sander - Love that it stops immediately when you click it off. Prefer this much over the cabled ones. ## Features - CORDLESS, POWERFUL 12V RANDOM ORBIT SANDER: combines compact palm grip build with power that’s engineered for professional applications - 5 INCH 8-HOLE SANDING PAD: ideal for both flat and concave/convex surfaces with optimal dust collection - ERGONOMIC PALM-GRIP DESIGN: helps provide maximum control and convenience - MOBILE DUST COLLECTION: allows choice of dust bag or vacuum hose attachment using a vac hose interface - EASY-TO-REACH ON/OFF SWITCH: offers intuitive operation - SOFT-START TECHNOLOGY: reduces startup torque to ease into the workpiece - INCLUDES: 12V sander, (1) medium backing pad, (1) sanding disc, (1) dust bag (battery sold separately) - Bosch 12V Max cordless power tools are covered by a three year limited warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09FYMG5MR | | Amperage Capacity | 5 Amps | | Battery Description | Lithium-Ion | | Best Sellers Rank | #49,651 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #41 in Power Random Orbit Sanders | | Brand Name | Bosch | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (342) | | Disc Diameter | 5 inches | | Grit Type | Medium | | Included Components | (1) Dust Bag, (1) GEX18V-5 12V Max Brushless 5 In.

Prefer this much over the cabled ones. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for small jobs/finishing. NOT for bigger jobs. *by A***N on October 14, 2025* WARNING- the batteries don’t last long, this is for very small jobs, Bosch basic 12V batteries only last 5-10 minutes full blast sanding. But for small jobs this is an EXCELLENT sander, smooth and powerful (with fresh batteries). Highly recommended for very small / finishing jobs. ## Frequently Bought Together - BOSCH GEX12V-5N 12V Max Brushless 5" Random Orbit Sander - Ergonomic Palm Grip, Dust Collection System, Speed Selector, Soft-Start Technology (Bare Tool) - BOSCH BAT414-2PK 12V Max Lithium Ion 2 Ah Battery 2-Pack - BOSCH JS120N 12V Max Barrel Grip Jig Saw, Cordless, Variable Speed, Tool-free Blade Change (Bare Tool) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/386984960-gex12v-5n-12v-max-brushless-5-random-orbit-sander-ergonomic](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/386984960-gex12v-5n-12v-max-brushless-5-random-orbit-sander-ergonomic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
