The Dewalt D28116 Type 2 Angle Grinder has never been recalled; however, common maintenance issues have been reported, including switch wear, brush replacement, and the flange nut on the tool seizing. Owners of the D28116 Type 2 angle grinder have expressed praise for its durability, power, and small, easy-to-carry design, while others have mentioned the odd weight distribution and the limitations that come with the D28116 Type 2 being a corded model.

The Dewalt D28116 Type 2 Angle Grinder was released and started production in 2016 by the power tool company Dewalt. Production for the D28116 Type 2 was focused primarily on the European and North American market, with a price range of 120$-150$. The models from the North American and European markets are almost identical but have differences in voltage. The D28116 Type 2 is part of Dewalt's small-angle grinder line and was released alongside other models like the D28065. The Dewalt D28116 was discontinued during the period of 2018-2019, as Dewalt started standardizing cordless angle grinders. The Dewalt is the bridge model to more technologically advanced angle grinders, such as the DWE402, which phased out the Dewalt D28116 Type 2 during the 2018-2019 period.

To identify the Dewalt D28116 Type 2 Angle Grinder, look and make sure the color of the grinder is yellow. Then, find a black Dewalt logo in the middle of the left side of the tool. Next to the logo, you can find information on a nameplate containing the model, type, serial number, and RPM next to the Dewalt logo. For this specific Angle Grinder, look for D28116, Type 2.
