The Makita GA4530 is a corded 4.5-inch angle grinder with a 720 W motor that spins at up to 11,000 rpm. It is compact and light at about 4 lb, with a slim 4.1-inch body and a side handle that can be mounted left or right. It suits light to medium grinding, cutting and wire-brushing on metal, plus tile and masonry work with the right wheel. Against 4.5-inch grinders from DeWalt, Bosch and Milwaukee, it gives up some power and a tool-free guard but stays small and easy to control one-handed. Owners praise its smooth running and long cord; the common complaints are heat under load and the fiddly guard and wheel changes.

Owners of the GA4530 mostly like its light weight, smooth running and long cord for home and light trade work. The recurring complaints are heat and bogging down under heavy load, plus a guard and wheel change that take more effort than on newer grinders.
