Best 4-1/2" Angle Grinder <$100?

[UNC151]

After using the DeWALT for about 10 hours total use (grinding, cut-off wheels, and flap disks) I can easily say this is the best grinder I have used in this size. It is an 11 amp grinder, has plenty of power, and does not bog down even when grinding for extended times on 1/4+ thick steel and stainless steel. Cheaper models I have owned tend to bog down and force you to go slower thereby extending the work time.

The one touch adjustable guard is very nice as is the forced directional ventilation which helps push the dust away from you and the grinder. ebay was the cheapest price I found on them and so I picked up two. Very happy with them thus far.

A while back I spent far to much Covid time resurching the best bang for the buck in such a grinder.
Harbour Freight was not an option for me (here in Canada) but I ended up buying a Tack Life off Amazon.
I did strip it down after purchase, and by all accounts it seems very well made and put together.
It was the most powerful in it's price class. My only complaint was the switch was too heavily sprung. That is now fixed!
