Review: When paired with the proper blade, it makes the cut in stone feel like cutting through butter. It was so easy I accidentally cut too deep on my first try, because my previous grinder was a cheap brand and I got used to having to apply force for the cheap grinders to cut properly. It's high power, it got a good kick when you start up the machine, same for when you turn it off. That being said, the power is great for cutting and grinding stones and hard surfaces. Review: I recently chiseled away an old ceramic floor from the early 80's (yes it was ugly..), what was left could be described as something similar to a relief map of the Himalayan mountains minus snowy peaks and Yeti tracks. The remaining concrete/thinset/ceramic/epoxy (yes someone cheated years ago on a patch job) proved to be stubborn to all but a 3lb sledge and hardened chisel. Having many DeWalt tools and being mostly pleased with their performance I chose to give this guy a try. Summary: The Good: 1. Ergonomics - Handle placement and controls are well though out. I set the speed and ran 2-3 sq feet to get a feel then went to town. 2. Grind-ability - Ample torque to handle even the highest peaks of the remaining flooring substrate. I experienced little to no kick-back when transitioning from smallest to largest of the pinnacles. The Neutral: 1. Dust Catcher - While very effective in minimizing dust from the flattening of the hills, the front of the dust guard opens fairly easily when bumping up against a corner or wall. Once I ran a few more yards along a wall I was able to get around this little nuance by making the closest pass from right to left ensuring the guard would stay in the closed position. Here a little stronger detente or slide lock in the plastic retention feature would be good. 2. Retention thumb screws for the handle - The female receptacle for the thumb screws needs to incorporate either a nylock type nut or a ratcheted base. I found after a few hours of grinding that the handle screws would loosen. Not a big deal as they have beefy caps that are easy to turn and torque down again. 3. This is not a daily use tool so it would be nice to see a hard case or tool bag for storage. The Needs Improvement: 1. Speed control for the brush-less motor - Maybe I am biased here because I have done a lot of development for brush-less motor controllers in the medical field, but I find the transitions between speeds to be "chunky". Having variable speeds is an A+ and in no way does the transition between speed settings affect overall performance, I would just like to see the steps have a smoother transition. In conclusion, this is another DeWalt tool that is a win. Value for capability is high. Build quality is high. I am impressed how well this thing chews through the slag that was left from the floor. Bonus points for having a side handle included so it can double as a grinder when the flooring work is done. ## Features - Brushless motor requires no brush changes - The Electronic kickback brake engages when a pinch, stall, or bind-up event is sensed, engaging with maximum force to quickly stop the wheel, reduce the movement of the grinder, And shut the motor off - POWER-LOSS RESET® - The ON/OFF trigger switch has a no-volt release function. In the event of a power outage or other unexpected shut down, the trigger switch will need to be cycled (turned off and then on) to restart tool. - Variable speed functionality lets the user change wheel speed for applications as needed - DWE46005 bail handle (included) offers multiple positions for user preferred configuration ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07K52RZRG | | Brand | DEWALT | | Department | Unisex Adult | | Generic Name | 5" Brushless Surface Grinding Kit | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00885911538633 | | Horsepower | 300 Watts | | Included Components | Grinder | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 44.8 x 20.8 x 14.3 Centimeters | | Item Weight | 3 kg 130 g | | Item model number | DWE46253 | | Manufacturer | Dewalt | | Net Quantity | 1.00 Count | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 44.83 x 20.83 x 14.27 cm; 3.13 kg | | Style | Concrete Surface Grinder | | UPC | 885911538633 | | Voltage | 120 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DEWALT - **Item Weight:** 6.9 Pounds - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Style:** Concrete Surface Grinder - **Voltage:** 120 ## Images ![DEWALT 5 in.

The shroud hooked up to a vacuum works great for indoor grinding. Really kept the concrete dust down and removed remaining floor adhesive to prepare the concrete surface for a new tile floor. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by L***I on 5 June 2020* When paired with the proper blade, it makes the cut in stone feel like cutting through butter.

When it comes to soothing out or prepping your concrete for tile or an overlay this is a great tool. The controls are laid out well, the weight is just right and its dust shielding feature works great. I connect mine to a Dustopper unit that collects the vast majority of the concrete dust before then going to my big Rigid shop vac. The perfect setup. I highly recommend this. ## Frequently Bought Together - DEWALT Concrete Surface Grinder Kit, 5-Inch (DWE46253) - DEWALT DW4777T 5-Inch XP Turbo Diamond Cup Wheel - DEWALT Grinding Wheel, Double Row, Diamond Cup, 4-1/2-Inch (DW4774) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/352457625-dewalt-5-in-brushless-surfacing-grin](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/352457625-dewalt-5-in-brushless-surfacing-grin) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
