Difference in These Sanders?

I’m not sure, but I’m guessing the VS means variable speed.
I dunno.

Your better off with this one

Looked up both on the Bosch website and as waho pointed out, the later is indeed variable speed (7,500-12,000).
Plus the later also includes a carrying case which seems like it will be the hard plastic case, not a little box. Personally, those factors would justify the added expense but that’s up to you.

I’d check out Jim’s link though, he definitely knows what he’s talking about.

Jim- I considered that one, but the Bosch seemed a little more suited to my needs. How has it performed for you?
Ben- The variable speed is probably worth the extra money, but I probably wouldn’t use it much.
Jonathan- Thanks for the link. The reviews strengthened by push towards the Bosch sander.

I’ll probably go for the ROS20VSK, since I like having cases for things. Plus the variable speed will most likely come in handy some day. Thanks for the comments everyone!

-- Tristin King -- When in doubt, sand it.
