Just got my hands on the CRAFTSMAN CMEG100 grinder, and wow—this little guy packs a punch for home projects!
The 6 Amp motor hitting 12,000 RPMs chews through steel like butter (once you grab the right blades, obviously). No fancy jargon here—it just works.
Love the tool-free guard adjustment. No hex keys, no swearing—just twist and go. Spindle lock? Yes please. Wheel changes take seconds now.
Handle’s got three positions (left/right/top), which saved my wrists when sanding my deck. Overmolded grip = no blisters after hours of use. Comfort matters, folks.
Downside? It’s not a daily-driver for pros. But for weekend warriors? Absolute steal. Lock-on switch is clutch for weird-angle jobs.
PS: VERSATRACK compatibility is neat… if you’re into wall organization porn.
Verdict: 4.5/5 stars. Craftsman delivered a budget-friendly beast that won’t quit on your garage adventures.
