Review: Super fun little tool for light duty work! - I think it's a great little tool. These reviews I'm seeing about how it doesn't have enough torque are baffling to me. This little guy isn't made to cut 1/2" bar with a cutoff wheel. It's made to deburr edges or sand a rounded surface or a million other very light duty jobs. You should have an angle grinder to do heavy duty work. I really don't get it because it seems to me if you're buying this tool, you probably have several corded angle grinders, and at least one cordless, if not more. So why you would be trying to do anything but finishing work with this is beyond me. My one complaint is how crunchy it sounds in the neck. I'm sure there is a pretty sophisticated gear train in there, but it does sound like it's gonna tear itself apart any second the whole time it's being used. I hope it only sounds like that and it continues to work, because I really like the little guy. I don't use it much, but when I do need it, I get so happy because I love using it. Review: Avoid this like the plague - This tool is hot trash. There's no power. If you put any sort of pressure on the wheel. It overheats extremely bad. I've been through two of these. Neither one of them lasted more than 10 minutes at a time before it blew up. Started smoking and burnt my hand ## Features - A carborundum grinding disc of 60 grit and a reinforced fan sander are included in delivery. - The unit has a special, balanced motor with full-wave electronic speed control. For use on steel, non-ferrous metals, glass, ceramics and wood (lower speed usage prevents burning of the wood). - Made in Germany ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0017PR65Y | | Best Sellers Rank | #70,195 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #77 in Power Angle Grinders | | Brand | PROXXON | | Brand Name | PROXXON | | Color | Green | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 out of 5 stars 296 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04006274385443 | | Horsepower | 0.07457 | | Included Components | case | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 13.19"L x 7.87"W x 3.35"H | | Item Type Name | Longneck Angle Grinder LHW/E | | Manufacturer | Proxxon | | Manufacturer Part Number | 38544 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Limited Warranty of PROXXON Power Tools for home and hobby use.

I don't know why this otherwise good and useful tool should have a badly placed set of controls and fragile variable speed feature, but it does. **Q: What size is the grinding disc?** A: It uses 2inch discs same as the King Arthur's Merlin 2. The Proxxon seems less prone to over heating than the Merlin II. **Q: Mine burnt up after 18 months, now what? sol?? get another??** A: I have purchased too many of these. The same or similar experience as yours. These are for ultra-light use. To the point that, in my opinion, they are not useful. I will not buy another. I have tried to use them for smoothing hand carved bowls, small to medium. They overheat very quickly. Can only be used for a few minutes at a time. Way overpriced for their durability. **Q: Has anyone found other disc that are more affordable?** A: Not to my knowledge. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super fun little tool for light duty work! *by D***S on February 16, 2026* I think it's a great little tool.

If you put any sort of pressure on the wheel. It overheats extremely bad. I've been through two of these. Neither one of them lasted more than 10 minutes at a time before it blew up. Started smoking and burnt my hand ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 2 years and 2 days *by D***L on April 15, 2022* I was about to purchase another one because mine burned up. Whenever I felt it getting warm I would let it cool down. I think I was covering the vented area w my gloves and that's what made it overheat and die. Apparently it's a common occurrence. I'm a power carver and I can tell you...I put it to the test! ## Frequently Bought Together - PROXXON Longneck Angle Grinder LHW/E, 38544 , Green - Proxxon 28012 Diamond blade for KS 115, 2", Silver|Silver metallic - PROXXON 28557 Diamond-Coated Cutting and Roughing Disc --- ## 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/3840012-38544-longneck-mini-angle-grinder-lw-e](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/3840012-38544-longneck-mini-angle-grinder-lw-e) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
