Typical modern Co. with no product pride or qualit
When I was young my Father and Grandfather swore by this line of products! I however am very disappointed! In a city of 500,000 people there are no retailers, or service centers! There was no option to buy from except Ebay, etc. And returning item is a major pain in the butt! I regret purchasing this item, and never again buy this brand! Thank You!

Just bought this bench grinder last week. First thing after mounting turned it in and the vibration shook paint can off the shelf beside the grinder also missing one star washer.
The other problem is the left tool right side is setting almost on the grinding wheel itself.
I had to use two small washers behind the mount to make room for the wheel.
This is not what I expected from Dewalt.
T took some measurements and the left grinding wheel is sitting .125 closer to the motor that the right side. If Dewalt can repair this bench grinder I would give it 5 stars.

Out of box unit vibrated badly. Dressing made little difference. End wobble about 0.005", shaft runout about 0.002". No vibration without wheels.Checked wheel balance and 36 grit wheel was ok but 60 grit wheel was out of balance. After agressive dressing and balancing the unit now has has minimal vibration.

Powerful but vibrates a lot
Just purchased this 8'' Dewalt for the powerful motor but man has it got a vibration. Not sure if the shaft is bent or the wheels are out of balance. Either way, it's not good. Should have paid attention to the online reviews but I thought, maybe the box was damaged. This box looked like it had been handled properly so it was boxed at the factory defective. Probably going to return and get my money back, 40 miles back to the store. Not happy Dewalt!

Runs great - gets job done. I have a fully loaded workshop and 99% of my tools are DeWalt because I can trust they stand by their warranty - albeit the one time I had to use the warranty service, weeks became months waiting for the part(s) to come in to get the repair needed. Generally, however, if you take care of your DeWalt tools, you won't have problems requiring warranty. The torque, power, durability and reliability are outstanding when it's DeWalt.
