Porter Cable 7424XP Polisher

I've been using a crappy $30 random orbit buffer from Pep Boys (Black and Decker). It definitely beats removing wax by hand and does a nice job. My one gripe is that it vibrates the daylights out of my hand which goes numb by the time the job is done. Does the Porter Cable solve that issue with the two hand grip (and probably much better design)?

I haven't used it yet so I can't answer your question but I can see the vibration/jiggling causing an uncomfortable feeling to your hand(s) after some time. I guess it's a small price to pay for what this machine can do.
