I went with two pieces of equipment, rather than have an all-in-one type sander. I got the 9 inch disc sander from Harbor Freight, and it's worked great for a few years. The belt sander is just my 3x21 Ryobi clamped in a bench vise. I had bought a better belt sander (Makita) but decided to keep the Ryobi for general use. Ryobi isn't great quality, but this sander has lasted for years. I don't sand recoil pads often, but I do a lot of woodworking (retirement hobby).
If I didn't have the gear I'm using now, I'd still get the Harbor Freight disc sander, but I'd get the Ridgid table type belt sander that will also work as a spindle sander. That's good gear.
