    Re: About to pull the trigger on a Rupes 15 but.....

    "but after reading several posts re Rupes crapping
    out after a year or less! "
    "Because I've tried both Griots and the Rupes 15. Both are very close with the edge to Rupes. Rupes is smoother, pads I love a lot and really like their system. "
    So, it seems you prefer the Rupes but are concerned about the Rupes' warranty?

    I am getting the Griots 6 inch and the 3 inch as well.
    Will have a balance and the best of both...

    Griots GG6 with the 3 inch backplate or the GG3? 3 inch bp with the GG6 is a beast. The GG3 you will need the thin pads. I just received the lake country thin pads and it's well made.5

    Bad machine, good warranty = fine with me
    Good machine, bad warranty = fine with me
    Bad machine, bad warranty = Not fine with me
