Amazon.com: Meguiar's G110v2 Professional Dual Action Polisher: Automotive

Anyone have any thoughts on this dual action polisher? I'm tempted, and it's currently on sale at Amazon for $125 in the Goldbox section for the next 4 hours.

Drive down to Tacoma to Griot's and pick one of these up. Local supplier of great stuff!

The Griot's, Meguiar's and Porter-Cable 7424XP are so similar in performance that it makes absolutely no sense to pay more than you can get the cheapest of the 3 machine's for. They are all basically the same machine. Thus, find the cheapest of the 3 and buy it.

Tools-Plus has the PC for $115.

Not anymore actually... its a unit produced in China by a company that specializes essentially in 'knock off' tools. They've solicited us a number of times to carry their unit, but we're not interested.

They'll build it to whatever specs we'd request - body color, shape, etc... another company is selling one (Shurhold I believe) thats the same unit as well. Its very similar to the PC, but probably just different enough that they can avoid copyright infringement.
