I bought a G220 back in September and wish I had held on longer for the above machine.

Same. The 220 gets alot of hype, but I thought was was all for a good reason! Haven't encountered many issues with people having there's fail.h4r1s wrote:That looks like a wicked deal, I'm very very tempted. But the only thing stopping me is it still as good as the g220? you get quite a bit of kit with it too which is good
I take it the kestrel has diff speed settings?
It will be quicker and easier, and that's it.Andy1.6 wrote:Surely its better than a hand polish though?
Tim, I haven't used the G220 yet, down to mostly the cold weather and that I'm scared of going near the rocco with it
But it looks like the G220's problems seem to have been resolved, most of the problems with the G220 being down to the carbon brushes on the motor going. The Kestrel actually includes a spare set of brushes. Either machine will be an excellent choice, and both have variable speed settings.
