What reviewers say
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
Festool ETS EC 150/5 EQ
One whitelisted hands-on review — Pro Tool Reviews' month-long shop test — covers this exact model (the reviewer explicitly puts the ETS EC 150/5 through real furniture work). It scores the tool 9.8/10, praising electronic vibration control, smoothness rivaling pneumatic Dynabrade sanders, powerful Multi-Jetstream dust extraction and the instant pad brake, faulting only the absence of a variable-speed paddle and noticeable added weight on vertical surfaces. No lab measurements were reported. (1 sourced review.)
Praised: Electronic vibration control makes a world of difference; as smooth as pneumatic Dynabrade sanders over a full day with no hand numbness; Powerful Multi-Jetstream dust extraction — suction strong enough to stick the sander to a vertical surface; Instant pad brake stops the pad the moment you power off, so you can set it down without leaving swirl scratches.
Flagged: No variable-speed paddle like a pneumatic sander — speed adjusts only via a dial; Added weight versus a pneumatic sander is noticeable on vertical surfaces.
Bosch GET75-6N
Only one whitelisted tester covers the Bosch GET75-6N: Pro Tool Reviews, and its December 2019 piece is a hands-off preview, not a lab test, so there are no measured results. It praises the robust dual-mode Turbo removal, constant speed under load, and sub-Makita/Festool pricing, but defers judgment on whether Turbo truly replaces a belt sander. Non-whitelisted blogs were excluded. (1 sourced review.)
Praised: Robust dual-mode performance, with Turbo mode rated for 3X faster stock removal than standard random orbit; Maintains a constant speed under load so pressure changes do not bog it down; Priced a little below Makita and well below Festool for the 6-inch model.
Flagged: Reviewer withholds a verdict on whether Turbo mode can actually replace a belt sander; New model's gain mainly closes the gap to the tool's own Turbo mode rather than leaping past rivals.
