Advantages: Well made, fairly quiet Disadvantages: None
...The Bosch sander was bought as a replacement for my aged Black & Decker one. After a few years of loyal service the motor had burnt out, this seems to be common with some of their tools so I decided to spend a bit extra.
B&Q had a good range of 1/3 and 1/2 sheet sanders. They ranged in price from £10 (how can they make them so cheap ?) up to about £50. Decided on the Bosch at £30.
This was a 1/3 sheet sander, the sheets are easy to change by moving a lever up on each side. It is fairly quiet and the quality of finish is always good. The sander is well made and was worth the extra....

Advantages: Safety features & detailed instructions. Disadvantages: Electric, therefore needs extension leads or nearby power supply
...I bought this chainsaw when a 10 metre tree fell across my garden fence. I chose Bosch because I have other products mady by this company and they have appeared well designed and reliable. The 1800 watt motor was more powerful then I had expected and the instructions were extremely good covering the safe use of the chainsaw. I am pleased I bought this model with 40cm blade and not the shorter version at 35 cm.
The chainsaw has 2 excellent safety devices, the first requires two buttons to be operated to avoid accidental starting or use by a child. the second is an anti kick back device which applies a brake to the chain if the chainsaw is thrown upwards in the process of cutting a tree or branch. I also like the fact that you do not need spanners or tools to tighten the chain, it has a built in tensioning device which is easy to use...

Advantages: Easy to use, Reasonable price, 2 year warranty Disadvantages: None up to now
...I have just bought one of these jig saws last week as my previous one broke and was out of warranty. I fit carpets and laminate flooring so would be using it at work. I didn't want to spend a fortune as it would get a lot of use and they only seem to last about three to five years and are not worth getting repaired for the price of them.
SPECIFICATION
********************
I went in to my local B & Q when my old jig saw broke and wanted to spend about £30, ideally I want the Bosch make as I have many of their other power tools and find them to be a good brand. I also wanted a carry case so I could just throw it in the back of the van and it would have some sort of protection from everything else on my tip of a van!!
The Bosch PST850PE was priced at £34.95, came with a plastic carry case, and one blade to get you started. It also came...
