...From Harbor Freight (http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=92623)...I just bought it for $29 this weekend for a cheap disposable one that I wouldn`t mind if it got destroyed. Let me tell you, this thing works as nice as my DeWalt, and weighs less! It has an adjustable speed control and for the price...well..I love the thing!!!

Does it bog down any? What sort of pads are you using?
I`m tempted to buy one because my PC isn`t cutting it, and buying a set of 4" pads is roughly half the price of buying that CE Rotary.

That is the best deal I think I`ve ever seen on a new machine, sweet.

No...actually runs very well! I use only 3M pads...
Just a note...a co-worker also bought one and had to change the brushes right from the beginning. The brush had a broke spring and wasn`t making good contact. Fortunately, the buffer comes with an extra set!

So is this like a PC? My PC isn`t getting the deep stuff, been thinking of getting one of those cheap $20 Wal AMrt ones or similar.

Would my 6" Edge pads work on it?
