Makita GA4530RKD Angle Grinder Slide Switch, 115 mm, 720 W

Brilliant service from the seller and I would not hesitate to buy again from this seller. Well, what can I say about this Grinder, its a Makita what more do I need to say really? I suppose you could say it lasts years and I will say that I also have a Bosh Angle Grinder and although the Bosh is great for reliability, it does not run as smooth as these Makia's! These Makita's do run quieter than the Bosh, the Bosh is a little noisier. I highly recomment Makita Angle Grinders, but the Bosh is a good one too. I just prefer the Makita a bit more really. AAAA+

Not actually used this yet, bought it to cut paving slabs, but it has a good weight, and nice feel to it. Not too heavy, not too light. Considered £59 a decent price for a Makita grinder on Amazon. All my other power tools are Makita which have proved to be excellent, hence sticking with a trusted brand. Have seen a few comments about how poor the box is; I agree it's not a best effort from Makita. However, for those having difficulty refitting the grinder in its box, (I struggled with it initially then saw how it should be done)...if you look on the inside of the lid, there's a diagram/schematic showing how the grinder should be stowed. Have put a pic here with this review. Hope this helps someone.

Good quality grinder, ideal for smaller and localised areas of work.Good performance with cutting discs, grinding disc & wire cup brush.Tool case keeps everything together, and seems to be durable.I can recommend.

Makita GA4530RKD. I've used this grinder to shapen mosonary chisels and cut through 5mm thick angle iron, both tasks it performed well. Other reviewers have criticised the on off slide-switch but I find it very easy to use - push it in towards the body of the tool and then push forward to activate, just press it to deactivate. Very easy. The case could be better as others have noted, the main problem being the cable storage. On first opening the cable is tied up neatly and stuffed into a small compartment by the cable outlet of the grinder, but it's very difficult to get it back in there after use. A better solution is to take the cord back along the legth of the grinder and fold it into the larger compartment at the head of the grinder. With a flat disc loaded it closes easily, but with a thicker disc that has a raised locating lip it's a bit more difficult to close because of the extra thickness. The case isn't as good as the case on my Makita cordless drill, but at least it's a case! The disc guard is a friction fit affair that works really well. To reposition it just grab it and turn (while the grinder is switched off!) Much easier than a clamp I think. The handle is angled forwad a bit which could limit access to tighter spaces - I'd rather have a handle at right angles to the body, but it's not a critical factor. All in all, and for the price, which includes a diamond concrete cutting disc, grinding disc and case, IMO it's good value.

It's a Makita so it's not the cheapest, but it is very good. When we eventually blow the earth up through climate change, the cockroaches will rule but the Makita's will still be running.Buy it, forget about the price and keep using it. I brought it for cutting steel right angles from a TV aerial and cables on my roof, I didn't want to use a hacksaw on the roof so brought this. No idea about the angle grinder but it cuts quickly and effectively with the cutter. Its not lightweight but not too heavy, reassuringly hefty.Comes in a nice case as well. Lead is quite long.I'm very happy with it.

Very nice I love it

Good condition and quality for the value. Well packed and quick postage.

Not started my project yet but tried it out and happy with its performance. It’s not the biggest but for its size it will do the job nicely.
