| Debating on a Flex
Ok, guys and gals:
I'm here begging for your input to help me decide which Flex I should get. I have seen both the LK603VVB (Rotary) and FLEX L3403 VRG Lightweight Circular Polisher and they both look nice, but since I am going to upgrade from a PC, I want the best possible option for me, in your honest opinion.Taking opinions also for other rotary info
So, what's your vote?
Thanks
Joey
P.D. Can this be made into a poll?

I'm holding off on a Flex PC due to the failure of backing plate some have experienced. When there is a permanent fix I'm going Flex PC.

I would go for the flex L3403 its a smaller unit, its weights about 4 lbs less than the LK 603 and about 2 lbs less than the makita. So far everyone that I sold this unit too tells me it is better and easier to handle. Also the location of the variable speed dial is different and it allows you for easier changes in speed.

The Flex is the best upgrade for a orbital specifically, but if a professional or looking for fasted correction then a rotary is the better choice.
