I'm in the market for a decent second hand rotary too...

I bought one second hand, I use it for carpet tile type commercials and sometimes for heavy duty agitation compared to the sebo duo.

I like it, I've had my monies worth out of it, but recently I seem to be getting more and bigger commercial jobs so also been thinking of getting a bigger rotary.

The Floormac is very similar to the Oreck and takes the same brushes and pads and it has a solution bottle, quite a bit cheaper :)

I've also just picked up a re-furbished Victor Sprite for £210 from A3 in Shropshire, highly recommend if anyone's looking for a good cheap rotary http://www.floorcleaningmachinesuk.com/ (http://www.floorcleaningmachinesuk.com/)

Love my Oreck for domestics I would'nt be without it, good versatile tool.

Little tip, always make sure the switch is in OFF position before plugging in!!

 yeah yeah its common sense but ive had a couple near misses as it takes off spinning furiously toward the customers 40" plasma  :o

Mines an older Oreck with the switch on the base so easily knocked when transporting/setting up.
