Customer Review
Bosch has great Customer service.
We bought this from amazon. It came with some parts missing and the box was beat up not sure if it was shipping or Amazon. Bosch was so good to replace the missing items and there customer service was second to non. Very big but great product.

Bosch Large 7" Angle Grinder
Although the grinder is as powerful as advertised, it lacked a carrying case and is very heavy. Also, in order to use cut-off wheels (metal or masonary), you will need to buy the Bosch Large Angle Grinder/Sander Adapter Kit #2610906326 which costs between $29 and $35 plus shipping/handling. This seems very pricy since the kit only consists of a nut, a small flange, and a wrench, and since a factory refurbished Bosch grinder costs only $80.
