Why not? All the glowing reviews and I've yet to really find a comfortable sanding block that effectively holds sandpaper.

Works great for those quick touch ups. A lot better than the other knock-off's that are stiff o work with. This one is a lot easier to load the sandpaper onto. I have several, one for each grit I commonly use. They are inexpensive enough to do that.

Couldn't find an item like this locally.

I wanted extra sanding blocks in order to have them preloaded with different grits to save time, instead of taking off one grit when wanting to switch to another. I write with a big black felt tip pen, what grit is on the block so I can see at a glance. Great system for marine varnish projects.

reminds me of one I had years ago

This sanding block is curved so it is easier to hold while sanding compared to a home made piece of wood. Also the grooves on the end have pins to hold the sandpaper in place.

I lost one I had years ago and wanted to replace it. It makes sanding easy to perform on flat surfaces. The rounded top provides a nice grip.

I'm a fan of these Brown rubber sanding blocks because they're more pliable (easier to put on and remove the paper), and the do not mark the wood as the black versions do.

I bought this block for my Cub Scout pack to use in their pinewood derby cars. The boys just getting exposed to tools loved the block. It holds the paper great and sands flat no hand imprints.

I've had one of these "red" rubber blocks for at least 30 years. They were unavailable for a number of years and had to buy another manufacturer's "black" rubber blocks. Very poor - too hard a rubber. Difficult to change papers. When I saw the "red" rubber blocks which are quite flexible because of the rubber durometer I purchased several more and now have one for each grade of paper I use.

Sanding block has a high spot...
Sanding block has a high spot right in the center of it. My belt sander took care of the high spot. Works fine now.

It's handy to have several for different grits of paper. I have used similar for decades.

Faciliates sanding
It is easy to place the paper into the block. The block is comfortable to hold and provides an appropriately firm support for the paper. It was a good purchase.
