Cheers for the reply. Is hand sanding not crazy hard work? Had a play with the small sander I bought and did a couple of floorboards that needed doing before the carpet. It’s only really the stairs and a tiny landing needing doing so wondering if I should just pay for someone to do it if a proper sander will be bear their day rate and only get used for day.

CYOA
Airhead has given a better run-down than I could.
Personally I'd get a decent multitool, as you'll get more use out of it over the years (for the obvious reason). Then also go the hand route if it's just surface rather than thick paint or stain.
Obviously if you're going to be loads of sanding and decorating then it might be worth investing in something else.
I'd have just thought stairs are an exceptional job, in that they are super awkwardly shaped while still being a decent surface area. Normally it's one or the other.
