Ordering Process was Efficient and Repair was Easy
The website was well organized and easy to find and order the right part.
The sander switch arrived in 20 days which I thought was good considering it had to cross into Canada. Switch installation took 10 minutes and the sander is now good as new. I will definitely use eReplacementParts again.

Very easy Repair
Removed the four screws from cap of sander, lifted slide-cam out, disconnected the two leads and pulled the switch up (came out in pieces). re-connected two leads, pressed switch back into position and replaced slid cam. Ten-minute repair including replacing sander cap and four screws. Works just fine.
