Very professional product especially for the price. I used it strait away. Not the grinder's fault (at all) but make sure you mount it on a thick topped work bench or the vibrations will be irritating; otherwise, very well made and I'd buy again.

It works OK, but it is really cheap. Looks like it was made in the USSR. The base is rusting out of the box - cheap metal. The welds and outside casing looking like a home built kit painted. Just cheap, cheap, cheap.

Why can they offer something from somewhere else? Obviously, Delta/B&D does not make this, they subcontract it and it shows. I would pay more, but the other offerings are the same thing in a different color. I would gladly pay $20 more, and not simply for yellow paint.

This is a good quality grinder for the price. Follow the directions in the manual and remove all of the packing grease. I removed the grinding wheels and cleaned the grease off of the shafts. Wheels run true with no vibration. Spark shields are thick and clear. Light is very helpful for old eyes. I would buy another if I had the need.

I bought the similar model, I believe it was the GR-275. I ended up taking it back. Some reasons: Both wheels ran out diametrically, a lot, causing very bad vibration. After dressing both wheels the vibration was still bad. Upon checking I found both wheels were running out side-to-side, the white wheel very badly (about 0.060" runout). I tried dismounting them and checking for problems with burrs or debris but could find none. The included wheel dresser gouged the SOFT aluminum tool rests when I dressed the wheels. I agree with another reviewer that the angled v-cut in the left-hand tool rest is more of a hindrance than a help. The wheel nut on one side was hard to get off. I found the threads in the nut had a large burr which had almost galled the shaft threads. I didn't have a left-hand tap to run in and clean up the threads, and by that time I was tired of messing with it.
Overall, the motor unit and base was heavy and solid. The variable speed feature is decent. The tool rests seemed fairly solid, and except for he problems mentioned above were usable. The other components were cheap and flimsy. The spark guards would hit the guard attachment lock knobs when adjusted down to compensate for wheel wear.

one of the tool rets one mine broke wile gentel use I was suprisd because I thought it would be steel or cast iron wich i could fix by weldimng it but no it was pot metal which is almost imposible to repair. Ten seconds after I turned it on the spare stopers on top losend and started to grind away the spark shileds got dirty and started to shake about and get in the way. so needless to say I took them off and threw them out. them moter spins to fast to grind cuting tools for it burns the temper and is good for nothing but light slow deburing. The moter is pathetic It takes for ever to grind a lawn moer blaed espsily if you have a tractor with two blades like on a tractor mower. if you even have a slight nick in the blade it takes five pluss minuts longer at least. then by trhe timne you are about done shrping your two blades the mote housing is very very warm for it dose not have sufficent cooling. also to use it it needs to be bolted to heavy and sturdy base or else it will tilt back and flip over if you use any presure. also it takes forever to grind any thing.buy a real grinder like a 1725 rpm grinder for wood wqorking tools or an angel grinder for lawn mower blades and outhe stuff.
