Really? That doesn't sound right.
I'm not saying it didn't happen, but that isn't the Griot's CS that I know.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Interesting. I guess thats what was starting to happen to mine.
I offered to send mine back for repair and they asked for a small amount of money in return for a new machine. I obliged and they sent over a new G8.

That is awesome !!!!
On a different note... if I call and sent my GG3 plus some change, I would get a new G8??? LOL
I been using the GG3 for interior scrubbing and lately it is started to sound like a diesel.

Re: Polisher for weekend warrior
Leaning toward going the Griot’s direction based a lot on the warranty. Sounds like they honor the warranty well.

Re: Polisher for weekend warrior
I too would go with either a G9 or if you have the coin FLEX. I have a GG6 still and it gets used about 40/60 with my FLEX. Great machine and great company/warranty. The GG3 I have is still holding up but if or when it goes I would be happy to pay $60 for a new mini from them.
