Details
MID55020CAUS, Mirka 5in DEROS 550CV 125mm, Orbit 3/16” (5.0mm), Vacuum-Ready, Random Orbital Sander
Mirka® DEROS 550CV direct electric random orbital sander has a 125 mm (5”) pad and a 5.0 mm oscillation. The main voltage is 120V. Mirka® DEROS 550CV is suitable for general sanding purposes on almost all kind of surfaces and particularly for smaller areas because of the 125 mm (5”) pad. Its performance is comparable to a conventional 500W electric machine and that ensures it maintains a constant speed even under heavy load. The unique symmetrical design makes it just as comfortable whether it’s being used in the left hand or the right hand and the longer body provides the option of a two-hand grip. Mirka DEROS 550CV is equipped with a backing pad, which has a central air inlet. This results in improved air flow and helps extract dust away from the centre of the tool even faster. Mirka DEROS 550CV is delivered in a high quality plastic case.

Customer Reviews
What I’ve never liked about the CEROS, however, is that it plugs into an external power pack that then plugs into the wall. Yes, the sander outperforms other electric sanders (it looks, feels and performs like an air-powered unit), but coupled with the power pack for which you have to allow room, it’s far more cumbersome to move around, there are several connections to check, and it takes more space to store. And it’s a bit inconvenient to pack up and transport.
Mirka’s new 5″ DEROS (Direct Electric Random Orbit Sander), though…I’m wholly impressed. This 4,000-10,000 rpm variable-speed tool replicates all that’s praiseworthy about the CEROS, but it plugs directly into a typical household wall outlet. No more external power pack. Plus, the power cord is integrated into the 18′ dust-collection hose (a 30′ hose is also available), so it never gets in the way.
At just 2.3 pounds on our postal scale, the DEROS weighs less than the Ridgid R2601 electric random-orbit sander (ROS) I bought for use at home (3.4 pounds). The dust collection between the two, both hooked up to the same Festool CT mini vacuum, and with the same sanding discs (Abranet) was also noticeable; I had far less clean-up on both wood and plaster with DEROS. It's also quiet; I didn't have a decibel meter handy at home, but it passed the "cat test" - they didn't run. (The company literature states the dBs as 71). The only one sticking point is the price; at almost $600, this sander is significantly spendier than other consumer electric sanders. But the technology and performance are also significantly better.
