Just ordered the Makita
Ordered the Makita rotary from Coastal tools, and some Chemical Guys compounds. Then I saw the Hitachi for $95. What are the big pros the Makita has over the Hitachi? Since I'll be using it quite a few times a week, I'd like to know.

The two tool are very similar in feel and operation. The Hitachi has a 5 year warranty vs. 2 for the Mak. The Mak is nearly 2 times the price.
