Just killed my dewalt die grinder and have to get replacement,if cost to rebuild too much.

Wondering what you guys might have other than dewalt . Get pretty heavy use so buying junk is just throwing money in trash.

I have a Metabo (German) and a Black&Decker that have lived a long hard used life. Yes check the brushes.

Had a Milwaukee forever but I think the shaft is bent. We would buy the Sears from their rebuild place for cheap. They worked great especially if you use an RPM controller.

B&D's work well and have an on off paddle which is better than an on off switch!

All need a speed controller!

The old GEO Japan made Makita's are the best out there IMO. Makita just reintroduced the GEO with ones made in China. I bought two, they lasted 2 months. I've had Japan and Brazil made GEO's for 10 years going strong. I have 5 going almost every day.
