over rated is what i keep hearing from a few people

a £50 silverline one is probably better, its what i use and have used reliably for 3-4 years now

I have the dodo rotary, used it to do about 10 cars so far, gearbox is getting a bit noisey, seems to lack torque a little bit sometimes. I wouldn't buy it again tbh. I'm with Kos on what he said really, the silverline is quite a bit heavier from memory, as i think that what my brother has, but its a better size to control. I'm also going to look at the 3m rotary or makita next :)

Didn't know Makita did a DA polisher. Shall have to think about continuing my Makita fetish in that direction... :D
