Skil 7290 Appraisal

Skil 2.0A 1/4 Sheet Palm Sander (Model 7290-01)

The item is a Skil 2.0A 1/4 Sheet Palm Sander, presented in its original retail packaging. The packaging is a cardboard box, predominantly black with prominent red SKIL branding and highlights. The main image on the box depicts the sander itself, a compact electric tool featuring a red body with black accents and a silver-toned sanding pad. The design appears ergonomic with a 'soft grip' noted in the product features. Key features advertised on the box include 'Micro dust filtration,' 'Soft grip,' and 'Easy quick mount clamps.' These features are translated into Spanish and French, indicating a product marketed for broad consumption in North America. The model number '7290-01' is visible on the lower left and right sections of the box. An additional numerical string '127290AB' is also visible. The sander's overall construction appears to be durable plastic for the housing and metal for the clamping mechanism and sanding plate, typical for a consumer-grade palm sander. The condition of the box suggests it is new or in nearly new condition, showing minimal to no wear, tear, or damage. The product appears to be a modern power tool, likely manufactured in the 21st century, designed for DIY and light professional woodworking tasks, providing fine finishing capabilities due to its 1/4 sheet format.
