What's your everyday grinder for cutting ? I have a bosch but the cord is driving me mad it's so rigid, not sure if it's getting more rigid as time goes on! I have a variable which has a lovely supple cord, so I bought the same model but none variable from PTT and that's got a normal cord on it.
it could be an old model.
my first bosch had the hard lead and problems
with the power button.
the second purchased, has a soft cable and no problem with the button.

BAH!!! if I have to make a few cuts, the battery-powered one is enough.
but 90% of the time I use the electric one,
the battery-powered one I keep for trim and small measures.
or to make the edge of the cuts.

I've 2 little bosch grinders, 1 is variable speed and a variable speed Makita. All are 240v, never tried a cordless one, why would I?

try asking the gypsies.
I sold 1 battery-powered grinder, I did not understand
because they called me only the Gypsies.
with the time I understood .... :)

I’ve got the Brushless Makita with the paddle switch and 5ah batteries. Cutting 12mm porc this week, like a hot knife through butter. I do have a corded one but never use it now.

Got to agree with @LEE MAC earlier in the thread.
The metabo battery grinder is a lovely piece of kit.
With a 5ah battery, I can mitre a full 2.4m sheet to a high standard, on the length.
