That is older version of planex?
@Darius good question. The PLANEX LHS 225 was the "original" model introduced many years ago. This model has since been discontinued.
The PLANEX "Easy" was a version that was introduced about 4 years ago with the idea of simplifying the controls and reducing the price. The "Easy" lacks the ability to add/remove handle segments to change its length, for example. The PLANEX Easy is, and for the foreseeable future, will continue to be an active offering in the Festool lineup.
Most recently, the PLANEX LHS 225 Version 2.0 was introduced which keeps most of the features of the original PLANEX but adds new functionality like the LED lights around the head.
If you don't need to sand 10'+ ceilings or sand in the dark, the PLANEX Easy is a great option and the best value.
Hope that answers your question, but if not I'm happy to clarify more.
Thanks,
Shane
