I plan on buying the makita 9227 tomorrow. My questions are a few but simple ones,please help me out !!!
1. best price i found so far is, makita 9227c,$185 shipped. any better deals ?
2. does the makita come with backing plate needed etc ?
3. should i buy the one(makita) with the side handle or the over the top handle ?
4. Do typical
Lake country 6'' pads fit this machine ?
5. I want to use
menzerna polishes, but someone said they(menzerna) are "dusty" polishes, and i cant use a dusty polish because i have dry eyes,and cant get dust in them

.
I appreciate anybody that can help.
I'm going out on a limb here and getting the makita instead of the
Flex because i think its a little better machine.OR should i get the FLEX ?
