Great for removing textured ceilings
I used it to sand textured (stippled) ceilings. It works with Aleko 9 inch 10 hole sanding discs. The 80 grit works well for removing the texture. You can sand most of it off, then fill the rest with a skim coat of drywall joint compound, if you want a smooth ceiling. DON"T SAND DOWN TO THE PAPER ON THE DRYWALL. I left most of it with a light texture, then painted it with ceiling white paint. The motor gets hot after 15 minutes of use. I would take a break, and let it cool down. Also, my arms needed a rest too. I would not recommend this for commercial use, but a DIY homeowner is what it is intended for. Had to use some foam rubber to adapt the vacuum hose to my shop vac.
