Buffer Recommendation
Looking to retire my 7424 to spot detailing only and buy a new buffer. I have been looking at the Griots G9 and G15, also looking at the Adams 15mm LT, Rupes, plus others. I use it maybe once a month and I would consider my skills as a 7/10. So what do you recommend?

Re: Buffer Recommendation
I just went from Gg6 to the 9 and love it,more than enough power,pretty darn quiet too. Price is good too. My 6 is now doing wax duty.

Re: Buffer Recommendation
Can't go wrong with the G9 in my opinion, bang for buck, warranty, power, etc...

Re: Buffer Recommendation
I had been reading about issues with the G9- and it was quite a few to be honest
Wonder if they got them fixed?

Even if you get one of the bad ones, they’ll take care of you. Some other brands, after 1 year, will ask for more money. Griot’s is the way to go.

I really love Griot's as a company, and I will say that you are correct in your reading.
That said, any new product introduced (not a restyling or improved model, but a full "built from the ground up" new design) will always have problems that cannot be duplicated in lab testing.
It is when the product is in the hands of the masses that unforeseen issues occur.
But, as Bruno has already stated, Griot's stands behind their products 100%, and you can be sure that any problems are being addressed very quickly.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Re: Buffer Recommendation
Buy the Griot's G9 (I'd go with the 25 ft cord option).
Lifetime warranty can't be beat.

Fire the engineer and buy the Griot's G9.

Re: Buffer Recommendation
