Opinions on an Oreck Orbiter

[DeepClean1]

For those that have one....What is your opinion of an Oreck Orbiter? Where do you find it most helpful and have you been happy with it?

lee,

I think they are great. I am on my second one now.
The first one took a dump after 5 years of use. I use it to buff the haze after color sealing
I think they have two models out. One is the commercial grade. I think its the XL. I have that one. Its a little more durable

I too have an Oreck Orbiter XL Pro, it has been a great machine and small enough to get in behind toilets. I would highly recommend it.

I bought the Low Boy 9000 for my main piece of equipment. It is Oreck's 17" Orbital floor machine. I use it to scrub with brushes and to buff with pads. It's a great machine if you need one that big.

Thanks for the input. Looking for something to fit in small places and the orbiter sounds like a good fit.

I also have an orbitor and find it to be another useful tool to have on board. I take it w/ me on just about every tile or stone job.

The Oreck 550MC only weighs 24lbs...is this heavy enough to do scrubbing and stripping jobs?

I only recommend small stripping jobs with this machine. The light weight means you have to go slower than normal. It does work if that is all you have.
