I`ve only been at this a few years and have only polished maybe a 10 or so vehicles. All of them with the thought of once step enhancement, not correction. Was using the GG6 with the recommendation of LC thin pro pads. Had been itching to pickup a 15mm Rupes but something just didn`t sit right with me on them and never pulled the trigger. Not a chance in hell I`d spend more than $50 on a Chinesium tool either. Kept reading on the forums how the G15 was equally as good and I`m usually not swayed by a lifetime warranty but I kept seeing how Griots actually honors said warranty so I bought it.
The G15 has a much better user experience than the GG6, besides it makes a good sidekick with a 3" pad on it, usually one step up in cutting than the pad I`m running on the G15 in case i just need a bump in cut, plus the obvious smaller pad for tighter spots. The G15 runs smooth, I`ve used BOSS pads on it mostly orange and yellow and they`ve done what I`ve needed them to do. The G15 is a real treat to use, can easily run it with one had like trying to reach the middle of a roof or when you need a hand for something else. Can`t comment on it`s noise level to other machines but I am able to listen to audiobooks through my earbuds with no issues. Can`t say I`ve run into issues keeping it spinning either, again if the angle is weird the 3" GG6 comes out to help.
Don`t recall what the price was when I picked it up, the new Griots G15 price makes it a no brainer.
