Remember WEN?

We've been designing and distributing high-quality and affordable power tools for decades. Founded by Nick Anton back in 1951, WEN originally made its mark by helping bring tools and electricity together (putting the power into power tools). Our research and development team played a vital role in helping to develop a variety of common everyday tools such as the chainsaw, the electric soldering gun, the electric jigsaw, the electric engraver, and the knife and wet wheel sharpeners. WEN even pioneered random orbital technology – the technology seen in most polishers, waxers, and buffers today that gives cars everywhere the streak-free shine they deserve.

Helping you get the job done since 1951.

Since then, our expertise has expanded to encompass a wide variety of products, including drill presses, lathes, bench grinders, nailers, miter saws, hand tools, generators, and cordless power tools, to name a few. By 2001, only 50 years after our humble beginnings, we had already sold over 50 million consumer units. By 2021, we had sold nearly 80 million. Today, WEN's headquarters can be found in West Dundee, Illinois. Our goal is to help woodworkers, DIYers, and artisans across the world execute their wildest imaginations.

Product Description

Remember when you needed a versatile and reliable sander? The WEN Belt Disc Sander easily sands, smooths and removes all of the jagged edges and splinters on your wood and lumber. With a 4.3 amp 1/2 HP motor, users should anticipate enough power to prevent this machine from bogging down under a large load. Changing the spacious 4-inch-by-36-inch belt is a breeze, so you’ll have the power to switch and replace sand paper grits as needed without wasting any time. The belt also tilts anywhere from 0 to 90 degrees to accommodate the needs of your particular workpiece while the heavy cast-iron base prevents vibrations. With all of this in addition to the 6-inch side disc, you’ll have the capacity to sand whatever your heart desires. The sanding disc is accompanied by a sturdy cast-aluminum work table. Included with the belt disc sander is a miter gauge for steady sanding on angled edges, a stop bar for safety and control, and a 2.25 inch dust port to connect a dust extractor. And because this is a WEN Product, your purchase comes backed by a two-year warranty, a nationwide network of skilled experienced technicians, and a helpful customer service line all to make sure that you remember WEN.

Customers like the performance of the sander. For example, they say it works well, gets the job done with no issues, and has been helpful for various projects. Some mention that the shop vac connector works great and it's a great tool with the top belt sander and the addition of the side disc sander. Overall, most are happy with their purchase and recommend it to others.

"...It was made of sheet metal for the frame (that's bad). Worked great for an occasional use home garage unit, but not for woodworking...." Read more

"...and for what I need it for (light sanding on smaller projects), it works pretty well. For the price, you really can't beat it...." Read more

"...It is made of heavy steel, works as discribed. Good product at a very reasonable price. Like the adjustable deck for the disc sander...." Read more

"it works great, very good sander, price is right too, Buy it." Read more

Customers appreciate the value of the sander. They say it is well worth the price and works well overall. Some customers also mention that the price to performance is really good.

"This is exactly what I needed at a great price. This has cut my sanding time on my two most made things down dramatically...." Read more

"...and for whatever reason that one works pretty well and I am impressed for the price. These are all consumer-grade/junk power tools...." Read more

295 customers mention228 positive67 negative

Customers find the sander easy to set up and use. They say it's ready to use out of the box and has an easy-to-understand manual. Customers also mention that it'll adjust the roller for perfect belt alignment. Overall, most are satisfied with the ease of use and functionality of the product.

"...Easy belt changes (no screws to remove or covers). There is one pivot bold to loosen to get the belt off when in the flatbed...." Read more

"...Used the disc sander and it was a piece of cake. So much easier, accurate and safer than either of the aforementioned...." Read more

"...Changing the belt was a cinch. I have not yet needed to change the disc.The dust collection worked fairly well...." Read more

"...Easy belt adjustment and the right size to not take up space...." Read more

91 customers mention70 positive21 negative

Customers like the weight of the sander. They say it isn't very heavy, yet heavy enough to not move around while in use. The base is heavy and helps keep it from sliding around. Some mention that the machine is solid without weighing a ton, and has the weight to stay put when they're using it. They also say it's light and compact enough to move around the barn with ease.

"...The machine is solid without weighing a ton.The only speeds are ON and OFF but that's fine for my needs...." Read more

"...The machine feels very stout. The base is heavy and helps keep it from sliding around. I don't feel like I need to bolt it down...." Read more

"...It isn't very heavy, so I can take it off of my table top and set under my bench when not in use since I have..." Read more

"...The unit is pretty heavy and am not sure if I need to bolt it down...." Read more

622 customers mention361 positive261 negative

Customers are mixed about the quality of the sander. Some mention that it has good construction, holds up pretty well, and includes a good quality allen wrench to complete assembly. However, others say that the table is flimsy, the guage is not real accurate, and the finish is not great. The sanding table is weak and has gross mechanical defects. It's obviously made in China and lacks the workmanship of some more expensive brands. The angle plate is pretty tough to get exact.

"...It's been reliable, after a year, I did notice some bearing noise - so a little lubrication maintenance and thorough cleaning are needed from time..." Read more

"...For the price, you really can't beat it. It is for sure not very high quality, so if you're looking for an investment piece, look elsewhere...If you..." Read more

"...not only gets done in a fraction of the time, it is also a higher quality result. I bought a set of belts here. I am set up for a while." Read more

"This is the second Wen tool I have purchased. It is made of heavy steel, works as discribed. Good product at a very reasonable price...." Read more

128 customers mention83 positive45 negative

Customers are mixed about the power of the sander. Some mention that it works well, has a powerful motor, and is efficient for rough sanding and shaping. However, others say that it needs a little more power and is a bit underpowered.

"I own three Wen tools and really like them all. This one is quiet and efficient...." Read more

"...It works great for metal. Even though it is a tad underpowered, it can be done, it just takes a a little longer to sand because you cannot really..." Read more

"I like this bench top sander it has plenty of power and is overall fairly quiet, the down side like others have said is the sanding table it is..." Read more

"...Plenty of power and very sturdy construction. Compares very favorably with more expensive products. I would buy other products from this company." Read more

99 customers mention47 positive52 negative

Customers are mixed about the noise of the sander. Some mention it's super quiet, while others say it makes a horrible noise and the noise level shoots to 11.

"...It's been reliable, after a year, I did notice some bearing noise - so a little lubrication maintenance and thorough cleaning are needed from time..." Read more

"...It's also quiet to use. I took off one star because the table on the disc sander is a little fussy to get perfectly square." Read more

"...The thing worked for about five minutes and then exploded. Very loud bang noise and out popped some nasty white powder that stunk horribly through..." Read more

"I own three Wen tools and really like them all. This one is quiet and efficient...." Read more

76 customers mention26 positive50 negative

Customers are mixed about the fit of the sander. Some mention that it fits perfectly, everything locks well into place, and it stays put in use. However, others say that it was very loose and there was no way to tighten it. The screw for the disc sander keeps on coming loose, and the worktable for the disk won't stay in place.

"MITER TABLE DOES NOT SIT OR LOCK TIGHTLY AT 90 DEGREES.. THIS AFFECTS MITER OUTCOME OF YOUR WORK.." Read more

"...Used the disc sander and it was a piece of cake. So much easier, accurate and safer than either of the aforementioned...." Read more

"...to deal with it but in the end it just makes it difficult to permanently attach the sander to your workbench. Still worth every penny though." Read more

"...in pin and one thumb nut to tighten it, needless to say the table moves a little so there is no precision in using it...." Read more

An Improvement on an old design
5 Stars
An Improvement on an old design
While WEN certainly did a great job vastly improving this elder design, they left out two things. 1) the adjustment hex head screw for lifting the large belt feed ramp SHOULD been updated to a turn knob instead of a Hex Head wrench, which created a second problem, there’s NO place to store the hex key. 2) The belt feed ramp is clearly not horizontal to itself nor level; see pics… for the price of it, I thought it would certainly be ‘straighter’.What WEN should have looked at additionally is to make the roller retaining sidewall sheet metal housing, thicker. Its bent already out of the box and was a fatigue point on all the other various companies that sold this model. Sad to see they didn’t take this minor step but instead placed the money into the cast iron base. Overall, wry nice sander, fit and finish is good, but not excellent.Lastly, the vacuum port and inexpensive T- square is a nice add-on! Would recommend this for the price point.
