“It's very nice that there is a company specialized on the production of necessary attachments for sanding machines.
The shipping process and the customer information about it was very good.
The Delivery time to Berlin in Germany was normal.
The company could try to declare products that were sold with a discount only with the discount or to seperate 2 items in 2 parcels to save the customer from having to pay taxes (product price>100€).
The attachments for my Mirka Deros sander (45°, 90°) fit and work well.
Nevertheless I got 2 attachments with 4 misprinted areas at each tool (see attached pictures).
The company ships products to customers with a worse quality.
The customer support didn't answer to my mail to get a replacement.”
“The shipping was super fast. Unfortunately I had to pay 30€ for customs, which I could've figured out, but it would've been better to notify customers, that customs would have to be paid, if ordered outside of GB.”
It seems to be pot luck whether you pay import duties or not but thank you for the feedback, I will add a note to the checkout page so that customer abroad are more aware.
“Had to return it because the quality of the finish was not to standard for a part that cost £70+
I understand it is 3d printed and that the printing process leaves a textured finish as the filament is layered but the item I received had large amounts of flashing that should be trimmed off in the finishing process. As a result, I did not find the part good value for money and returned for a refund. I cannot comment on the functionality as I did not use the part. I had to pay for return shipping.”
“I came across this attachment whilst searching for a solution for sanding edges using my Festool ETS EC 150 orbital sander (Festool only provide a dedicated edge sanding attachment for the ETS EC 125 orbital).
Whilst I'm happy that I was able to find a solution, and opted to purchase the 90° option for a total delivered price of £91.74, the product that arrived was disappointing.
I was aware before purchase that the product I was buying had been made on a 3-D printer, but no effort has been made to 'finesse' the finished product, literally taken off the printer and placed in a box for delivery. The edges are unfinished and corse, and the whole item has a feel of cheapness about it. If it had cost £30, I wouldn't complain, but at nearly £100, I expect more.
The official Festool attachment for the ETS EC 125 sander has a better finish, complete with adjustability and is available currently for £128 delivered. A more realistic spec for the price, and all I can compare to in this niche market.
Setting aside the finish of the product, the actual operation is unrefined, assembling the attachment to the sander can be fiddly and problematic due to the diameter of the bracket and shortness of the attached clasp. Once attached though, it seems to remain in place fairly well, although there is a small amount of flex between the two, so care still needs to be taken, although the end result is far superior to edges sanded without.
To summarise, one of the few options for turning your Festool ETS EC 150 into a reasonably competent edge sander. In my opinion though, overpriced for what you get in comparison to other comparable products. To remain at this price, an improved finish, assembly capability and greater adjustability options are required.
Or simply lower the price to £30 to reflect the lack of.
I had ordered my attachment as a requirement for a project I was undertaking at the time, so had no option other than to use it, which is why the attachment was not returned.
In all other aspects of my interactions with ILUKA tools, I was satisfied, website, ordering, communication and delivery all worked well.”
HI Daniel,
We are sorry you feel this way about the product. If you would like to return the edge sander then we can refund you, even if it has been used.
Many thanks,
Dan
