This floor scrubber is excellent for vinyl floors.
I had almost the exact scrubber a few decades ago and it was a love hate affair. I loved it because it did an outstanding job cleaning my kitchen floor but I hated it because the rotating brushes would fling soapy water over the kitchen cabinets. After knowing how this machine works, in installed a light weight plastic skirt (from an old cutting board) all around the bottom of the machine about 1/8" from the floor. I works perfectly without the flinging mess. I installed the skirt using duct tape on the four pieces of plastic (don 't worry about the corners) and then when finished using it, I remove the skirt and tape so that the tape won't become yucky over time and make a mess.

Best floor cleaner
Easy to assemble and use. I have a flooring that has grooves in it and this does a good cleaning job.

Just what we wanted.
Cleans the floor very well, but then you have to mop up the excess water. The buffer really polishes the waxed floor to a hard shine. Just what we were looking for and the price was right.

Great cleaner
I used this machine with the scrub pads to clean a very dirty floor. It worked
Great and was easy, not heavy, to use. I vaccumed up the dirty water. Within
An hour the job was finished. In previous cleanings it took much longer
To clean the same floor and lots of energy on my part.

Floor Buffer
Good value. The pads require considerable strength to attach them

Pads come off too easy
I like the buffer. But the buffer pads kept coming off. There has to be a way for the pads to stay on

great
I also had the problem of just one of the pads slipping off during use
but you just have to really click them into place. Once I did that
several times, it stayed in. This machine is very basic and strong and will get the job done for the HOME.

Buffer works good but a variable speed switch would make it much easier to control.
Works great but could use a variable speed switch to enhance control of the buffer when in operation.

disappointment on the buffer pads getting off while in use
I have only used it for buffing ceramic tiles. I followed the manual's instructions on how to attach to the main unit...after a few passes on the floor..one of the buffer pads kinked and got off the attachment unit several times. I am disappointed with the performance but I think the machine itself is good and made well.
I will try again to see what happens and decide then if I should return the unit.
