Our take on the Bosch GEX18V-5N 18V 5in Brushless Random Orbit Sander (Bare Tool)

The GEX18V-5N is Bosch's 18V cordless 5-inch random orbit sander, sold as a bare tool for people already on the Bosch 18V battery platform. Its brushless motor and low-vibration, palm-grip body aim at finish sanding on wood, paint and metal without a cord. Against corded 5-inch sanders it trades constant mains power for portability, and against cheaper cordless rivals it leans on Bosch's battery ecosystem and dust collection. It suits trim carpenters, finishers and remodelers doing touch-up and site work rather than heavy stock removal.

Questions and answers

Does the GEX18V-5N come with a battery?
No. It is a bare tool, so you need a Bosch 18V battery and charger, which are sold separately. Any battery in the Bosch 18V line will run it.
How does it compare with a corded 5-inch sander?
A corded sander gives constant power for heavy stock removal. The GEX18V-5N is for finish work and site use where a cord gets in the way, and it runs cooler and longer per charge thanks to the brushless motor.
What size sanding discs does it use?
It takes standard 5-inch hook-and-loop discs, the same size as most 5-inch random orbit sanders. The pad grips and releases discs without tools.
Can I connect it to a shop vacuum?
It has a dust port for the included collection setup, and you can adapt it to a vacuum hose for stronger extraction. Check that your hose fits the port diameter.
Is it good for beginners?
It is easy to control thanks to the palm grip and low vibration, but it is a bare tool, so a first-time buyer also needs batteries and a charger. For occasional light sanding a corded model may be simpler.
Where is the Bosch GEX18V-5N 18V 5in Brushless Random Orbit Sander (Bare Tool) cheapest?
At eBay, for $95.00, 40% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
