ReviewThe Bosch 6-inch random orbit sander/polisher is a multi-purpose, variable speed tool with a powerful 3.3 amp motor that ensures exceptionally smooth results no matter what surface you're working on. Its pad both orbits and rotates, duplicating natural hand-sanding action for a finish that looks like you spent all day and a whole lot of elbow grease. Chock full of performance and convenience features, this sander/polisher is designed for comfort and reliability.

The 3727DEVS has a rugged, die-cast aluminum gear housing with a Bosch exclusive dual-bearing pad mount that eliminates wobble and vibration -- plus an integral pad dampening system that helps prevent swirl marks for a fine, consistent finish. Its high-performance microcellular backing pad conforms to the contours of your workpiece, and the through-the-pad dust extraction system pulls dust away from the work surface to maximize sanding efficiency while extending your paper's life. This sander/polisher also offers Constant Response circuitry, which maintains constant speed under load and provides overload protection.

But it's not all work and no ease of use. The 3727DEVS is styled to be gentle on your hands because a firm grip means more precision and better accuracy. The tapered soft-grip top matches your natural hand angle, and the ergonomic handles allow multiple grip positions in order to prevent fatigue. The front handle even comes off, so it's easier to sand in tight spots. And the 3727DEVS is as comfortable to operate as it is to hold; its soft-start function reduces start-up torque for smoother performance, and the trigger has a lock-on button for long projects. Best of all, the Bosch microfilter dust canister has an integrated paper filter that captures dust particles as small as 1/2-micron in diameter, so there's less debris to block your view and clog your paper.

This sander/polisher uses 6-hole, 6-inch hook-and-loop discs, and it's double-insulated. Rated at 120 volts, the 3727DEVS has an eccentric offset of 5/64-inch. It operates from 4,500 to 12,000 rpm. This kit includes a pad wrench (5mm hex), soft backing pad, sanding disc, and a microfilter dust canister.

Applications
Excellent for a wide variety of purposes, this sander/polisher will become a favorite go-to device in your workshop or garage. It removes stock and finishing material quickly, without scratching -- making it perfect for most sanding jobs, from wood floors to furniture finishing. With a buffing pad, it also buffs and polishes automobiles and boats to a professional-looking shine.
