it, or a ROS, would be good for the flat faces, but the curves i am less sure on.
 
I use a belt sander and for the tight curves i use a lathe with 15mm dowel between centres with the velcro backed papers then finish by hand
 
I have recently bought one and have just finished sanding a set of six dinning room chairs. I used a thick Mirka pad for the curved sections and a thin pad saver for flat surfaces with Abranet disks , I am very pleased with it. Curves are a little tricky I also used a detail sander for the small hard to access areas.
