I had to clean up some tile cement after tile floor removal. This unit was plenty powerful for the job. A number of grinding wheels were included but i purchased an extra wheel which was specifically for ceramic work. The unit comes with a nice carry case. It arrived packaged in its own off-the-shelf box, not encased in a separate Amazon box. It arrived in great shape.
For my occasional medium duty use, it was perfect and good value for price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good solid grinder for light to medium duty jobs
Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2023
Style: G12SR4 OnlyVerified Purchase
After reading some of the negative reviews, I was expecting a piece of junk that sounded like a coffee can full of rocks. This tool has a very substantial feel and appears to be good quality. Angle grinders are never the smoothest-running power tools, but this one feels a lot closer to one of my better grinders than it does to one from the local tool place that sells cheap imports; and I have bought many of both. This is definitely better made than the cheapo variety. It is true that the on-off switch is a little stiff. It’ll probably loosen up a bit with use. It’s not a problem in any case. I have expensive angle grinders, but I like to use cheap ones for dirtier jobs that don’t require the power of a more expensive tool. This one will be perfect for that use. 6.2 amps is plenty for many light tasks such as wire brushing the slag off of welds and the like. This is a good buy, and when it does go to tool heaven, the case - and those aren't cheap - will live on.

EDIT: I just spent a full day on a welding project and used this grinder quite a bit. I have several angle grinders with different flap disks, wire brushes, cutoff wheels etc. because no one likes changing the wheels constantly. The last one of my cheap grinders from the freight place stopped working altogether - it's switch hasn't locked for a long time but at least it spun. I'll replace it with another one of these Metabo HPTs. They're a good machine for a low price. For heavy duty use I would get a higher end machine but for flap disks, cup brushes and the occasional cutoff wheel, this does fine and and is quite a bargain.

Style: G12SR4 OnlyVerified Purchase
you can get better grinders, and stronger grinders, and smoother grinders, and cheaper ones, and longer lasting ones... but these are pretty good all around for the price... i just bought this third one because my first is starting to wear out the bearings in the head... it still works but its days are numbered.... ive had that one for about 5 or 6 years and ground lots of metal, rebar, concrete, and carved thousands of dollars of custom walnut furniture and shelves and bowls and platters and such... so i think ive got my money out of it even if it does today. that one is actually a Hitachi but its literally the exact same grinder with a different logo before the company renamed.

Good value product. Online reviews were positive aka Bob Villa. Today I cut my first metal bike seat post and grinded/smoothed it afterwards. Had to buy a cutting disk but this unit did the job. I feel so useful.

I recommend being useful with this grinder.

Es un gran precio en relación a lo que ofrece, viene con un case de plastico rigido y los 5 discos de desbaste, el tamaño de la herramienta es pequeño y cómodo en la mano, es algo pesado así que para jornadas largas podría resultar cansado pero aún así es una gran herramienta

I have used almost every make of grinders throughout my entire career. I found that the make Walter / Metabo electric hand drills, grinders. etc.. were the best in industry. They outlasted any grinder I have used. Rugged, compact and can handle a lot of abuse. It comes in a nice case and it includes: five grinding wheels, mounted safety guard, one handle, two tightening nuts, and a wrench. For $50, it is a heck of a deal and it will last you a long time.

Product operates as it should, good quality and good for light to medium duty grinding.
