After 10J my old (cheaper) has quit the service.
Am very positively surprised at the solid construction, nothing wobbles and the angles of the tables can be adjusted accurately and firmly. No sheet metal / tube construction but solid casting and thoughtful design are a joy. The cheap version before had many design flaws which was often annoying, here you can really work and pull the workpieces over the belt without the (huge) grinding plate is in the way! Unfortunately, the nozzles of the dust extraction are not ideally attached, so I can not connect my (standard) house vacuum cleaner.
But otherwise, absolute purchase recommendation, hope the also holds as long as my last one

Shame about the plug

Compared to the competitors in the same price range (let alone the cheaper ones), this sander offers a lot of power (direct drive), a decent size of disc and belt and reasonable tables on the disc and belt.

workpiece support plate deforms too easily
Holzmann BT203-914 is compact and solid little top table sander, on the heavy side which helps with the stability. Pivoting tables are made of aluminium. Both belt and disk sander have a port to connect a vacuum cleaner.
The compact design makes it harder to access some of the screws or holes to fix the machine to table.
