Rank #6 in Best Angle Grinder 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Wattage Claims That Fail
DEWALT DCG407N-XJ 18V XR Brushless Angle Grinder, 125mm
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The DEWALT DCG407N-XJ is a cordless 18V brushless angle grinder with a 125mm disc capacity, sold as tool only. It sits at number 6 in our guide to angle grinders. Unlike some cordless models in this guide, it does not quote a wattage figure that an 18V battery could not deliver; the listing sticks to 18 Volts. But the same listing gives item dimensions of 10L x 10W x 10H millimetres, which is 10 mm on every side — this is the DEWALT model with that measurement, while the other DEWALT in the guide is listed as 3.37 metres long.
The DEWALT DCG407N-XJ has a 4.6-star rating from 67 reviews, yet the histogram on the listing adds up to 100 (4 one-star, 4 three-star, 9 four-star, 83 five-star). The listed price is £107.50. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as provided; we have not tested this tool ourselves.
