    I've never used the Rupes but have heard nothing but good. I have the G21 and love it. Similar machines. Griot's has a lifetime warranty.

    Rupes invented the long throw DA whereas others...

    I love my Rupes 15 and if I could go back in time would still buy it over and over again over any other polisher.

    With Rupes you paying $400 for a $400 polisher, with the other you paying $400 for a $150 Chinese knock off.

    The choice should be clear.

    Rupes 15, Rupes 21, and Rupes 75. Buy any one and you will be very happy. Buy the original if you appreciate quality tools.

    I have three Rupes, the 15, the Duetto and the Mini and I have the G21. If I had to pick one I'd buy the G21. It's an excellent all around tool and works great with both a 6" and 5" backing plate. The G21 is very smooth and over all quality is very good and you can't beat the warranty. It's very ergonomically well designed too. It also ships with an extra set of brushes.

    I love my Duetto and Mini for certain applications but between the Rupes 15 and the G21 I have no use for my Rupes 15 anymore, it's gathering dust. I always grab my G21.

    The choice should be clear.

    If we still stuck with the "original" we would still have original car that Henry ford made.

    Just because its the original does not mean it can not be topped.

    Chinese some of the best stuff we use are made by chinese, and they are some of the smartest people in the world and innovators.

    Who makes more things China or Italy ?

    Yep.

    And what makes "Italian" good so Italian plastic is better then Chinese plastic?

    A 500 watt Italian motor is better then a 900 watt Chinese motor?

    You can see everything that the boss is made out off.

    And it uses nothing but the best including NSK bearings.

    If you hate on China so much I sure hope you use nothing else from them.

    Griots has more power and is more comfortable then the Rupes.

    But hey stuff is meant to be surpassed.

    So what kind of car do you drive ???

    A Volkswagen ? Well why they was not the first car made ? So why buy a knockoff of an original car ?

    See where I'm going with this ?
    Everyone makes cars now with different features, different motors , different purposes, does not mean that they are any less better because of a ethnicity.

    Italian, chinese, german , USA it doesnt mean anything the parts or metal don't speak those languages so what makes that superior ?

    Why is italian better then the USA ?
    Why is German better then China ?

    Another thing martin Cooper made the first cell phone , so why dont you have the first original brick cell phone ? I mean he was the first that's the original so it has to be the best....

    That doesn't mean you have a steve jobs phone do you ???? I mean he just copied off of martin cooper what a loser that makes iphones junk

    And if you got a android, they copied off a copy... Witch is even worst.

    Things evolve dont be such a cry baby. 😭

    Well since you said Rupes started long throws.

    The first German car was a Mercedes Benz in 1886 and then THOSE GOD FOR SAKEN IMPOSTERS CALLED VOLKSWAGEN DARED TO COPY THR AUTOMOBILE BY CREATING A CAR IN 1936, TOOK THEM A WHOLE 50 YEARS TO MAKE A COPY.

    my god those damn imposters my suggestion ? Go for the original Mercedes Benz they did it first so that means its the best.

    I will locate the nearest dealer so you can trade your VW for the original.

    Can't stand those damn knockoffs
