Re: Anybody used both a Flex and Makita BO6040?

The Makita seems to have more power but does not have the adjustable speed trigger. However it does have a speed dial near the back of the machine to change speeds on the fly, it has a switch to convert the machine from forced rotary to just random orbit, and the makita is selling for about $30.00 less.

Removed contact info per community rules -- db
Are you going to have one for the Flex?
