I'm not a pro detailer. More of a weekend warrior. Suprised at the PC prices. I also have a 20% off coupon for 1 item at HF. Any opinions on these 2:

#1 will get the job done with a good pad kit from phil. It gets hot and its loud.

Why not just get a PC 7474XP?

Well, because those are over $100 minus pads and such. I can't justify spending that much for occassional use right now. I know you get what you pay for at China Freight but a $50 entry point for the polisher is not bad and if I do end up using it more than expected and it breaks down, well then I'll be telling myself I should have bought the PC.
