Buy or hire the FlexiSand 1.9 if...

A single-disc rotary sander used for buffing, screening and light sanding rather than heavy stock removal, which is why floor contractors keep one alongside a belt or drum sander rather than instead of one. Its 407mm disc and 1.9kW motor put it in the same bracket as other single-phase rotary buffers sold through UK flooring trade counters.

Buy or hire the R185CCSX+ if...

The R185CCSX+ gives tradespeople a lighter, more portable multi-material saw than the mitre or table saw models, aimed at first fix carpenters and general builders cutting mixed timber, sheet and light steel stock on site. Its track compatibility offers straight-line cutting without buying a separate plunge saw system.
