Is the Skil 9295-01 worth it for home use?

Yes, if you grind or cut metal a few times a year. It is cheap and does the basic jobs, but it is not built for daily professional use.

What size discs does it take?

It takes 4-1/2 inch wheels with a 7/8 inch arbor, mounted on a 5/8-11 spindle. The included grinding wheel is 4-1/2 inch.

Does it have variable speed?

No. It is single speed with a slide switch and lock-on button. For variable speed you need a different model.

What comes in the box?

A 4-1/2 inch metal grinding wheel, side handle, flange set and spanner wrench. No case is included.

Can it cut tile or concrete?

With the right diamond or masonry blade it can cut tile and concrete, but it is a dry grinder and makes a lot of dust. Wear eye and hearing protection.

The Skil 9295-01 is a corded 4-1/2 inch angle grinder with a 6.0A motor, a 5/8-11 spindle and a tool-free quick-release guard. It is a basic, inexpensive grinder aimed at occasional grinding, cutting and rust removal rather than daily shop use. It has drawn 4.5 out of 5 from 118 ratings, and its price sits near the low end of what corded 4-1/2 inch grinders cost.
