Prolux Core 13 inch Electric Floor Buffer Scrubber and Polisher Machine - All Floor Surfaces

* 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.

Floor buffer worked well and offers good value. Only complaint is I left a message for customer service and never heard back from them.

I began stripping my floor and we were doing it by hand, which was extremely difficult. I decided to purchase the machine and it has saved my back. It’s really powerful and very easy to use and very light weight. It almost goes by itself. I bought the machine to sand my floors after stripping but it does not come with a sanding disk . I have not been able to find a sanding disc to fit the machine. I called the company but they were not much help . I’m very disappointed! it was a very expensive machine and I am sorry I bought it. I don’t recommend it if you want to sand floors !

We have a production facility that we have grey epoxy floors. They have been gradually getting black specs since the floor isn’t super smooth so we got this to help see if it would clean it before turning to a professional company. This product is the BEST, it ate up all the black marks and made our epoxy floors look like they were brand new! I would highly recommend this product to anyone who has a commercial business with a lot of foot traffic or even someone with a large home. It cleans your floors spotless! 10 out of 10, you need to buy this!

Rugged. Easy to use. Floor of old house not cleaned in years. Also best way to scrub floor mats.

Easy to use or operate....has a very good polish quality.

We purchased the Prolux floor buffer to refinish the concrete floors in our house. The machine worked well, so no complaints there. The instructions however, though humorously written, didn’t contain enough information on the actual use of the buffer, specifics on how to use it for various applications. The other thing we found very frustrating is that the pad holder doesn’t actually connect to the machine. Because of this, every time you tilt the buffer on to its wheels to move it, the pad and pad holder fall off. Other than those two things, we found the buffer to be a good investment.

Did not work well and stripped the polish off of my floor.

Does not work in the UAE, i am surprised amazon allows it to be sold here

Trabaja muy bien. Me gustó mucho.

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

The equipment was refund because it does not meet the UAE electricity specifications - electricity and voltage require current conversion with use.
