@@TomMagicWoodworking it hasn't been new in Canada. i bought it 3 or 4 years ago. i think they opted for a different design outside of North America and maybe finally consolidated it into the one configuration. unless your dewalt is older that 3-4-5 years old... maybe it was different a few years ago.
Both Top Quality Orbital sanders.Why not get a cable and a battery version. Good investment.
Hi I have got both cable and battery version but the 18v version is A lot more user-friendly.
Suppose the cable version would be more comfortable but then not as portable
These days it really comes down to portability and Ease of use.
Thanks for watching
Me being a Makita guy is like marriage. You take the bad and the good.
Very true
Think you have more hand grip choice Mikita.
👍
I have the Dewalt sander. My battery mounts sideways…. DCW201…
Hi yes I believe you have the new one where they have thought about it and fixed the problem. Thanks for watching

Oh ok then yes your right as that one is only a year or so old so must be a different design over here
@@TomMagicWoodworking too bad. The side ways battery is nicer in the hand but as you mentioned it still wants to do a wheelie haha.
The American version has the battery sideways so it isn’t in the way 👍
Really, i wonder why they changed it for over here interesting, though. Thanks for watching
