Hitachi G12SR3 4.5" angle grinder 6.0 amp

Good idea Dave, I was just going to email and ask for the parts, but I think I will call Monday and express my disappointment. Thinking about it some more, they probably grade based on how scratched the housing is, and it is really pretty good in that respect. Still should have been cleaned better though.

I was pleasantly surprised to find the warranty from Hitachi is a full year on these guys, not bad at all for a reman product. Maybe I'll have to try really, really hard to kill it.

One of mine had some engraved marks in the top of the die-cast gear casing. But it was totally mint aside from that. It was a bit curious. But I'm not complaining.

I should have struck while the iron was hot. I'll keep my eyes open for next time. My current grinders have a lot of slop and vibration.

These must be getting returned by outfits that are in theft-prone situations, one of mine had "A6" engraved on the serial plate.

Yeah, these are well worth it. Plenty of cajones - barely bogs when I mash down on the cup brush and quite smooth to boot. I may just have to get a couple more if they come back at this price again.

I went to the local Lowe's, and looking to the ones on display and I got the Hitachi G18SS 7" 15Amp, there was also a DeWalt 13Amp it was lighter, but the Hitachi have a better feel in my hands is twice heavy though. I love it

Only problem I have with mine... When I got them they looked brand new, now they don't.

Mine work great.

I don't see myself moving away from my paddle switch but has anyone compared these to dewalts? I have a dewalt paddle switch and have been using one for about 5 years.
