According to our sander expert
The Bosch GEX 125-150 AVE is an eccentric sander that makes up to 24,000 oscillations per minute. You won't experience tingling hands while using the GEX 125-150 AVE, though: thanks to the vibration damping, you can get to work comfortably. Not only can you sand with it; if you attach a polishing pad to the sander you can also polish your car until it shines like new. The extra handle lets you put on some extra power when needed. Together with the powerful 400-watt motor and the speed control, this makes the eccentric sander a very versatile machine.

As a satisfied user of Festool sanders, I was initially looking for this too, but in the end I opted for the Bosch blue. This sander offers both a 150mm and a 125mm sole, making it a versatile machine for multiple surfaces. Because the speed is adjustable with a rotary knob, you can choose how aggressively you sand. The 400 watt motor is more than powerful enough and unique in this price range. Also included is a handle that does not need to be disassembled to fit in the box, small but handy details
A tip: there are two versions of this device in circulation by Bosch and Coolblue offers the extensive variant with 3 sanding pads (125mm 8 holes, 150mm 6 holes and 150mm 8+1 holes). There are also polishing soles for sale so that you can also use this machine for that purpose, hopefully these will soon be added to the Coolblue range.
A few small improvements: It is a large device, of course useful for large surfaces, but also quite high due to the built-in suspension. As a result, you as a user sometimes lose contact with the surface; you feel less bumps and grooves in the wood. In my opinion this is a small detail, in practice you let the sander itself 'run', if you push too hard the sole does not turn and the machine only 'vibrates'. This should and will create a random sanding pattern.
If you are looking for an aggressive sander that does run mechanically to remove a lot of material and thick layers of paint, you should invest a little more in the GEX 150 turbo or the Festool Rotex, but if you are looking for a versatile and powerful sander, and you don't mind taking a coarse grit for more aggressive work, then the AVE 125-150 is the machine you're looking for

Due to low vibration and high sanding capacity, it is ideal for large surfaces such as doors. goes a lot faster than standard home, garden and kitchen appliances.
