I had the original orange one like 25 years ago for sanding difficult spots and it was nearly useless for that as the paper loaded instantly.? Eventually
gave it to my dad. About 5 years ago I bought one for a major master bath remodel and I find it incredibly useful for remodel situations.? I¡¯m now helping 3 kids with old houses and it get used a couple times a month.? For me useful for remodel/construction.?
Not at all for furniture or cabinet making.
