    Re: Handle or no handle?

    you could leave the handle on and apply pressure under it like you would if it wasn't there, but it might bump it or it may get in the way of you have tight areas you need to get to. try it out for yourself and see what is to your liking...

    Try it with and without a handle and see what you think.

    Hope this helps.

    Hello Roger,

    You own the Meg's MT300 and the GG6".....

    Then you are the man I need to talk to because it has boiled down to these 2 choices for me. (New to machine polishing)

    I'll be using the DA 2-3 times per year as a diy-er on my personal vehicles.
    I've heard nothing but outstanding reviews of the GG 6" but with some minor complaints of Vibration and somewhat clumsy speed and on and off switches.
    The Job is important to me but so is Comfort and a Pleasurable Experience.
    I'm leaning towards the GG 6" for the Price Point and That Warranty....since I won't be using the machine on a daily basis.

    If you would sir, please provide your critique of the 2 Machines.... particularly an Ergonomics Compare and Contrast as I'm sure both will get the job done.

    If you had to pick one of the two, Which One and Why?

    Appreciate any advice.
