Flex vs Griot's dual action polisher
Hello everyone, I am new here. I am gonna buy a dual action polisher and am wondering if anyone knows the weight of the GG da polisher? I don't see it on the spec sheet.
I heard the Flex polishers are really good but are they worth the price, especially if I don't do much buffing?
Thank you,
Mitchell

I don't necessarily agree with this. The question is how much do you want to spend, and what do you consider "value" when it comes to buying tools? Are you looking for the bargain, or are you looking for an exceptional piece of equipment?
I like to think that the majority of people on this site are "enthusiasts" and as such can appreciate the value in a premium tool such as the Flex. If you can't afford it that's one thing, but don't discount it because it's more money. Personally, I bought a Porter Cable. Then a month later I bought a Flex. If I could do it over again I would have bought the Flex and skipped the PC all together. I'll make the best of the situation thought and use the PC for the harder to reach spots with a small backing plate and pad.
Oh, and I'm an enthusiast. I maintain my cars only, and occasionally will clean a friends vehicle for them.
p.s. Is that Jeff Sudds in your avatar?

I was really contemplating between the two, but pulled the trigger on the gg6. I can say I'm really happy with it, BUT I really should have just gone with the flex.

I should clarify that there is absolutely nothing wrong with the GG6" in my eyes. They all have their place in the market. I say "premium" towards the Flex, but in no way mean other products are Subpar. There are two Fords in my driveway. If I wanted I could have one Porsche for the same price. Pick your battles for what you consider "value", and enjoy it.

If you are 'infected' with detailing then buy the Flex now, otherwise go with GG.
