I think that's a big part of the machine. The ergonomics are great. If you already have a DA that is the real benefit that for the money, it's very smooth.
You can of course use other products with the megs pads.

yes, having a machine that has comfortable ergonomics and is smooth is nice and all, but if I have a smaller body PC style traditional DA (GG6) that has more torque/power then there's no need for me to purchase one (assuming the mt300 doesn't have the torque/power the GG6 has, would like to see more reviews/thoughts on it though). it's not worth my money for just the ergonomics/smoothness alone. I would rather save up and just get the GG6 first & then the Flex and call it a day...

I used XMT line on wifes car with B/S MF pads and they worked great along with XMT 360. On concave surfaces they did slow up but I just adjusted to next speed and away I went.
I myself liked the machine but again this is from someone who owned a griots machine for awhile. I wanted to upgrade but being a weekender this was a good investment for me.
If your a pro and detail for a living then spend the extra and with Flex or Rupps....

The flex has almost done too good of a job in that it will just rotate through anything and IMO has caused unfair judgments versus plain DA machines.
I'd say the machine overall is a step up in ergonomics and machine operation of any machine not named flex or rupes.

Having a PC and a 3401 is this machine worth replacing the PC as far as vibration. I started using Megs microfiber pads which I like, my PC just wears me out so I want to get another D/A machine. Possibility of a Rupes 15 however I don't think I need one having the Flex. I have had my PC for years and it is tried and true albeit rough around the edges. So what do you guys think is the MT more refined, worth getting and retiring my PC. Thanks Tim..

On the basis of vibration, completely worth it. When using their backing plate and thin pads, it is SMOOTH.
