About Bosch Random Orbit Sanders
In Bosch's random orbit sander family, you'll find an assortment of powerful, versatile sanders and polishers that are designed for low vibration and minimal noise. These models feature counterbalance mechanisms that serve as the basis for the dual bearing pad mount system, which can be operated with one finger on a soft grip.
About the Bosch 1250DEVS Random Orbit Sander
The 1250DEVS multiple-purpose sander from Bosch has two sanding modes: random orbit mode for normal stock removal or fine finishing, and an aggressive "Turbo" drive eccentric orbit mode that operates at five times the regular rate, in order to remove rougher stock. Its simple sanding mode selector switch quickly changes back and forth between the two modes, as your projects require it -- and the powerful 6.5 amp variable speed motor (3,100 to 6,650 opm) matches the tool's speed to the task, for a smooth result on all surfaces.
This model is crammed with great convenience and power features, including a soft start function that tones down the start-up torque and a variable speed dial that makes it extra easy to match your working speed to the project. It also has Constant Response circuitry that maintains the pad speed under heavy loads while simultaneously protecting against overloads, and an integral pad dampening system to help prevent swirl marks -- plus a passive dust collection system (vacuum and hoses required, available by Bosch). The 1250DEVS uses 6-hole, 6-inch hook-and-loop discs. This kit includes a dust tube, soft backing pad, a left or right-hand auxiliary handle, one sanding disc, and a pad wrench (5mm) that stores on-board.
Applications
The 1250DEVS removes stock and finishing material quickly, without scratching -- making it perfect for most sanding jobs, from wood floors to furniture finishing. Bosch makes an assortment of 6-inch hook-and-loop discs and pads to fit this model, including discs for wood, paint, and special applications.

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
i've used the bosch and love it. this sander is a right-angle sander. this means the gearing is off-set from the sanding pad, providing considerably more torque, thus providing faster stock removal. it delivers similar stock removal to a light-weight belt sander. maybe "jonman" should use a light-weight belt sander, bosch mini belt sander (for inside curves), or makita's band file (also, for inside curves). metabo, festool and now the rigid clone of the metabo all offer dual-orbit settings. one for agressive stock removal, one for fine finishing. these are mid-weight random orbit sanders and are lighter duty than the right-angle sanders. i think "jonman" would be much happier with one of these. even lighter duty, are the 5" palm random orbit sanders, porter-cable makes a sweet one, the 333vs. to flatten the surface, after the random orbit leaves the slight divets it does, i use the bosch 1293d 1/2 sheet finishing sander. it's large enough to flatten the surface, unlike a palm sander. it also gets into corners. if you must own a palm sander, get the porter-cable 0330 random-orbit 1/4" sheet sander (most palm sanders are not random orbit). i use the dewalt 443 6" random orbit, as it was the best at the time, 8 years ago, as well as the bosch 1/2 sheet finishing sander. i own a belt sander, but don't usally use it for furniture because my 6" random orbit works so well. i use the bosch mini belt sander mostly for trim and scribes and inside curves. i also use the porter-cable detail sander, but it's not that powerful. maybe i'll buy the bosch detail sander one day.
