Oh yeah totally...Nice and light....It is really nice!

Thanks again! I like how it moves, congrats again on your new machine!!!

The Dynabrade is advertised at 4.9lbs. However, it feels a little heavier then my old Metabo which is supposed to be 5lbs. The weight on the receipt says 8lbs, UPS label says 9lbs, and my scale says 7lbs. Id say 7lbs is right, definitely not 4.9 or 5. Either way, this thing is VERY solid. The head is all metal which is really nice. I love the threads on the handle too. I was always worried I was going to strip the Metabo handle because of the small threads. The speed dial is easy to read and adjust. I also like how it says the actual rpms instead of 1, 2, 3, etc. I really like the trigger a lot better then the switch on the Metabo. I also like how you can put the handle on the top as well as both sides. Im sure Ill use that sometimes.

Now I haven't used it yet. But comparing it to the Metabo in terms of how it feels in my hands and build quality, this thing is a TANK. The Metabo is like a tiny fragile baby compared to this thing. Cant wait to put it to use!

Real nice, what is the model number?

UPDATE: Well Ive used the Dynabrade for a number of hours and I have nothing but good things to say about it. I love the weight, the way it feels, basically everything. I have zero complaints.

JL, its just like my B&D so you you can feather the trigger very easily.
I was going to say as well, it looks exactly like my old Black and Decker and it was a tank. Let us know how you like it.
