  • New toy - hope its not a dissappointment

    Just got some stuff from Australia during a short visit there.

    I have seen a lot of online post (US, EU, Aust, etc) stating theirs' broke down after short use and some stated that its a great tool and its very reliable. Some of my friends even told me its a wrong decision and there's better alternatives out in the market.

    I have always trusted Meguiars' products to be quality products so ... this is what I got from Australia.



    I really hope that they don't go bad after using in a short period of time. I tested it few minutes ago just to see whether the motor runs,...and one of the machine sounds louder and harsher. Hope that does not affect the longevity of the machine.

    Gonna give it a test tomorrow (its now 10.30pm - wouldn't want to wake up neighbors) with some M205 (far too long sitting on my store room)

    Awesome! I'm sure they'll work just fine for you.
    As far as motor noise goes, were they both set at the same speed when you tested them?

                Yup tested this morning, one of it definitely sounds louder and its sounded like a aircond compressor's bearing wearing off...whining sound.

                I'll do some testing on both machine once I have the time and place to test them. Its quite frustrating to oversee half a dozen workers fixing your house; leave the site, they'll tend to have long long breaks
