Mirka Deros VS Festool Rotex I’ve been getting a lot of questions on my thoughts regarding my new Mirka 6 inch Deros sander vs my Festool 6 inch Rotex. I’ve had the Rotex for close to a year now and I LOVE it. • • -The PRO’S: 1- it’s powerful 2- it removes material VERY quickly 3- the dust collection is awesome paired with the festool vac. 4- has 2 modes. Aggressive & finish 5- Great for polishing • • -CONS: 1- Not a great finish sander 2- Is quite heavy 3- Sometimes too powerful, requires 2 hands and can be very tiring after longer periods of sanding. I use this sander mainly for rough sanding and material removal. The MIRKA I have had about 3 weeks: • • -PROS 1- Lightweight 2- The balance is insane 3- Very quiet 4- Finish is very smooth 5- Dust collection is incredible 6- Adjustable speed based on paddle pressure 7- Is compatible with the Festool Vac • • -CONS 1- Abarnet sandpaper is great BUT for flat surfaces, I’ve torn quite a few pads. 2- Is more expensive than the Rotex So in my opinion I love both these sanders. They have two very different uses in my shop. I always start with the Rotex and finish with the Mirka. Here I am working on the siding to a kids cabin bed and these sanders make sanding that little bit kite enjoyable. Let me know if you have any questions.
