Lo usé para abrillantar piso de mármol y lo hizo bastante bien. Tomen en cuenta que no soy un profesional y seguramente mi técnica no fué la mejor; pero el piso mejoró su aspecto. Un problema es que las allmohadilla de microfibra que usá este equipo no las he podido conseguir en Amazon, pues son de 13″. Tendré que probar con unas de 12″ que es’tan disponibles de la marca Oreck

I love the buffing feature. The ability to cleaning really old stains..so-so. The disappointment was with sanding. Although it was advertised in several places as a sander, there were no instructions other than using the scrubbing pad. Thru trial and error and wasting money, I finally found a solution; 13″ stick on sanding disk which worked pretty good. It was easy to maneuver, but being a 61 year old lady I can’t call it light weight! I struggled to get it around when it was not engaged. Also, I found it a little difficult to release the handle with my foot while also pulling it down into “ON” position without turning it over. Only because we have decks and such to clean, I keeping it…otherwise I would have rented a machine to sand my floor.

We have cement floors in our basement.
We tried mopping them, using a scrub brush thing on them, and several other products but either did not hold up to the wear and tear of frequent usage or they just did not work at all.
When I was in the Navy we used similar floor scrubbers to clean and polish everything from tile floors to diamond deck flooring on the ships…
This is very sturdy and it does a great jog both scrubbing and polishing or cement floor…!
One thing I will mention…
If you have never used one of these then it take a little getting used to how to operate it.
There is a special kind of motion that is used to make it glide back and forth.
It’s difficult to explain you just kind of need to feel your way into it.
Once you have this mastered, which is not difficult, then it’s very easy to use.
I would recommend this to anyone.

I was hesitant to purchase this floor buffer after reading a couple of reviews (particularly one saying the buffer didn’t actually rotate but only vibrated and one saying it was too heavy). It in fact DOES rotate and I’m a 70 year old woman that managed its size and weight easily. It is probably about 30 pounds and was heavy enough to do a great job. I used it to refinish my old, tired concrete floors and was thrilled with the outcome. I first used the scrub pad to clean the floors with a concrete cleaner then used the soft mopping pad to remove the cleaning residue. I washed the mopping pad in the washing machine. Then used that pad again with a gloss finish concrete sealer. I couldn’t find one contractor that could get to the job in a reasonable time. I’m saved literally thousands of dollars and could not be happier with the results. I now use it weekly to mop my floors both in the house and monthly on our finished garage floors. Love this!!

This is a good quality machine and is made for dummies to assemble. A little practice is needed but in less than ten minutes one can master the buffing brush. A good idea is to watch the video to see how to take the attachments off and on and to adjust the handle. The 13 inch disk seems the right size for my home use on sandstone tiles.

It is heavier than I expected. Great for mopping entire areas.Very good in garages and patios. Changing units is difficult because at 76 the weight but I still would purchase again.

* I don’t often write reviews
I read all the reviews across Amazon, Walmart and Homedepot and they were either hit or miss. Every one was happy or its junk….. So I was hesitant to buy this. My wife recently took the lease on a large store that needed lots of help. I talked to the previous tenant who moved 4 stores down, he said they haven’t finished the VCT floors since he had been in the shop and he had the lease for 7 years. It was previously a discount cigarette and dollar store. HEAVY foot traffic, with deep embedded stains and ground in dirt.
I ordered the machine and pad kit last week and it arrived last night. Although I am not ready to do the floors until this coming weekend, I can’t wait to play with new toys. I took it to the shop last night, unboxed it, slapped on the brown scouring pad and went at a couple of the worst spots. Again, this floor hasn’t been finished in 7 years, and judging by the condition of the old tenants new store, probably hadn’t been mopped either. I used a little powdered Spic an Span with bleach in hot water and did a couple areas roughly 4’x4′ just to test.
This machine handles great! for everyone saying the “Pad doesn’t stay on”, make sure the tabs line up between the motor head and backing plate. Turn the machine on, and gently guide the handle, letting the buffer do all the work swinging it side to side at the machines own pace. I worked side to side with overlapping each pass, then turned 90 degree and did the patch again. Mopped up with hot water and GOD DAMN!! I thought we were going to have to replace this floor. I took before and after photos of my spot treatments that I will add later. I will add photos and update my review after I strip and polish the other 3,000 square feet.
Once my main floor is done I will move to the basement with the stiff brush head and clean the concrete prior to have the floors painted. That is another sad looking area that I have high hopes for.
This unit is small, it will take a little time to do my areas, but to have the ability to strip my floors and then buff them as often as I would like, when ever I would like, with out having to go to home depot to rent a machine makes it worth it. I am also looking forward to be able to try and dry clean wall to wall carpets.

I didn’t want to go “cheap” on a machine like this. The small compact nature of this machine makes it very easy to use and did a wonderful job. We have tile throughout our entire house and it was a breeze to move from room to room using this.

had high hopes with this machine. amazon must be mixing reviews with other machines by same company. this machine had high ratings but can’t see how. 1. pad holder and brush does not stay on unit 2. does not spin all it does is vibrate. very disappointed. have requested a refund but still waiting on response from amazon. buyer beware.
