If you already own Ryobi ONE+ tools, this is the easy cordless choice, because the same 18V battery that runs your drill or driver also runs this sander - no extra charger, no new platform. The 125mm orbital pad giv…Which one should you buy?
For most people the Bosch PEX 220 A is the best overall pick, pairing genuinely good dust extraction with a smooth, swirl free random orbital finish on a 125mm pad and the largest review base here, all on a corded plug so runtime is never a worry. Buy the Black and Decker 230W if you just want the cheapest corded sander for occasional DIY, the Ryobi ONE+ 18V if you already own Ryobi ONE+ batteries, or the Einhell Power X-Change if you are in the Einhell battery family. Step up to the Milwaukee M18 or the DeWalt 20V MAX only if you are already on those trade platforms and want the strongest dust capture and lowest vibration, remembering both are sold as skins with no battery. The single best value, though, is the Bosch.
