G110v2 anyone tried one

holy crap WOOOOOB!

I have an older PC 7336 and a Cyclo. Recently I purchased the Griots unit with the 25` cord. I never thought I would say it but it puts my trusty Cyclo to shame. The unit is strong enough to honestly say I`ve found no reason to run it on speed #6 at all. It is quite stout and takes major effort to just slow down the rotation much less stop it. I`ve used the Flex and believe it to be the top of the heap but coughing up the moola made me choke on buying it. For about 1/2 the money I can say that I`m well pleased. I hope the lifetime warranty never comes into play but it`s reassuring to know it is there. Oh, it came with an extra set of motor brushes too.

Here`s the specs on a few of the most popular machines:

Flex is completely different from the GG. Both are good for professionals, GG more suited to the DIYer. Flex is forced driven so it`s more for the paint correction oriented.
