The Makita XOB01Z is a bare-tool 18V LXT cordless random orbit sander with a 5-inch pad and a 1/8-inch orbit. It runs at three speeds (7,000, 9,500 and 11,000 OPM) and adds a pad brake and soft-start pad control for a swirl-free finish. It suits woodworkers and remodelers already on the LXT battery platform who want to sand away from an outlet. Against corded 5-inch sanders it trades constant power for freedom from a cord, and against smaller cordless models it offers more pad area and speed choice.

Owners on the Makita 18V platform rate it as a smooth, well-controlled sander that is handy where a cord gets in the way. Most praise the speed selection and finish quality; the common complaints are run time at high speed and the bare-tool packaging.
The Makita XOB01Z is a cordless 5" random orbit sander that runs on an 18V LXT lithium-ion battery. It has a large 1/8" random orbit action for fast sanding and a swirl-free finish.
A one-touch electronic speed control switch gives fast, medium and low settings of 7,000, 9,500 and 11,000 OPM. Run time on a single charge is up to 40 minutes at low speed and 20 minutes at high speed. A pad brake reduces free-spin, and a pad control system controls pad speed at start-up.
The body and grip are ergonomically designed for operator comfort. A dust bag is included.
