I've used the Flex and believe it to be the top of the heap but coughing up the moola made me choke on buying it. For about 1/2 the money I can say that I'm well pleased. I hope the lifetime warranty never comes into play but it's reassuring to know it is there. Oh, it came with an extra set of motor brushes too.

Here's the specs on a few of the most popular machines:

Flex is completely different from the GG. Both are good for professionals, GG more suited to the DIYer. Flex is forced driven so it's more for the paint correction oriented.


Happy Details
