Simplify the drywall sanding experience with the Planex easy Drywall Sander. This single-piece machine features easy plug-in and go design this is both easy to set up and easy to use. Intuitive controls combine with exceptional balance and low weight to make the task of drywall sanding easier than ever. Enjoy greater freedom-of-movement and longevity with the direct-drive EC TEC brushless motor with its motor-over-pad design and flexible head joint. There are no flexible drive cables and no carbon brushes on the motor which need replaced. Removable top section allows for up-close sanding to abutting surfaces such as inside edges. Reduce jobsite clean-up while working in a cleaner environment thanks to the integrated dust extraction design that captures dust at the surface (when attached to a dust extractor). Fully compatible with existing Planex abrasives.

Just unpack, plug in, and go. The Planex easy is designed from the ground up to be quick and easy to operate with no assembly. Single-piece design (63") coupled with intuitive, easy-to-use controls for ease-of-use. Flexible sanding head, great balance, and low weight (8.8 lbs) reduce fatigue while providing exceptional flexibility to sand in nearly any position.

Power through jobs easily and without downtime thanks to the direct-drive Brushless EC TEC motor. The direct-drive, over-the-pad motor provides greater flexibility and durability over flexible cable shaft designs without power lag. The brushless motor is light, powerful, and long lasting. And we back this up with Festool's exclusive 3-year Service All-Inclusive warranty.

Q. Can this set up be used to remove popcorn ceiling.
By harry |
Yes, absolutely. In fact, it's one of the primary uses for the Planex sander. You can find some videos on YouTube showing the Planex being used for popcorn removal.
Q. Do you have to buy the hose or is there a hose adaptor? I have a CT 36.
By Matt |
While it's possible to use your existing hose, it will not lock onto the Planex. The hose made for the Planex has a flange and locking mechanism to prevent it from being pulled off during operation. The Planex hose can be purchased separately and is ...
Q. Does this have two speed control like model 575219?
By Carl B. |
Both the PLANEX LHS 225 and PLANEX Easy have variable speed control in the form of a dial with numbers from 1 to 6 for the pad speed.
Q. Can I use 496140 interface pads with the Planex easy sander? I'm attempting class 5 finishes.
By Solberg |
Yes, the 496140 interface pad can be combined with the standard Planex Easy pad.

Q. Is this tool wired for 120V? I know this is a German company so I wanted to be sure it wasn't 240V prior to ordering, thank you!
By Christopher G. |
Good question. All of the tools that we sell are wired and rated for U.S. power requirements. Festool makes specific US models that are for 120V.
