I bought this sander particularly for some sliding sash window restoration and it has proved to be a very good buy. It is very solidly built, however this means it is quite heavy and makes it impossible for my wife to use on vertical surfaces, although I have no problem with it. The filter really does work surprisingly well, collection much of the dust generated. The motor is more than powerful enough, and heats up little even with extended use. My one gripe is the long front handle, which prevents the tool being used right into corners, leaving about 75mm unsanded which has to be finished off by other means. Apart from this I can recommend the tool most highly, and its performance is further enhanced by using quality belts. Cheap belts just don't cut it. Literally!

This belt sander is the replacement for the PBS 60. As a replacement it is too heavy, has too much power, and the dust filter is nearly useless. Bosch do not product a dust bag that fits this machine.

This is a good, no nonsense belt sander. It works very well with a self-centering belt which can move a tremendous amount of material. It has, to my mind, two problems. The first (and lesser problem) is the fact that you cannot buy an inversion stand for the sander to make it a bench sander (although you can for its bigger brother, from the Professional range). The second, and greater, problem is the small, bent tube which attaches the dust collector cassette to the sander. You cannot buy spares of these. I have tried both Bosch and power tool spares specialists (here in the UK and further abroad). They are not available. I lost my connector and when I used the sander without it I was covered in dust in about 3 seconds. This might sound rather amusing but the attendant damage to lungs could be significant. Apart from the belts themselves there are only two parts which attach to the sander and one of them is not available. It's madness. If you have lungs of steel and don't mind being absolutely covered in dust this is a very useful piece of kit.Read full review

I bought this primarily to sand pallets and it does a great job. I've hooked it up to a bench stand and a vacuum cleaner to make it even easier to use. It just feels like a well built piece of kit. I used it for about an hour non stop and it was fine. Very easy to change belts. I would recommend wearing ear defenders when using it.

My husband says it is powerful but very swift. He has already managed to sand down someones oak dining table which had been varnished. Now polishing with beaswax. Brilliant!! Given the table a fantastic new life....
