Question - which corded angle grinder should I choose?

Both the 1500W angle grinder and the 750W grinder are machines with a universal disc diameter of 125mm,. Both models have a slim, compact housing and a rubberised, anti-vibration handle for comfort and control when working. Both feature tool-less blade guard adjustment and smooth start-up to maximise comfort.

However, it is worth considering the type of work to be carried out when deciding on one of the models. A 1500W angle grinder provides more power, making it more suitable for intensive and demanding tasks such as cutting thick materials, grinding welds or working on concrete. A 750W grinder, on the other hand, will be sufficient for lighter tasks such as grinding small parts, cutting thin sheet metal or removing rust from metal surfaces.

Also worth noting is the variable speed function on the 1500W angle grinder. This is a useful feature when working with different accessories and materials that require different speeds. Higher speeds work well for cutting metal and lower speeds for grinding. Adapting the speed to the application and accessories used also allows for safer use of discs and grinding wheels, precise finishes, reduced dust and risk of overheating, resulting in greater control and comfort.

The 1,500W sander is therefore more suitable for professional contractors who need a powerful tool for heavy-duty work in difficult conditions, while the 750W model will work well for less intensive projects, also offering solid performance and high working strength.
