[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used my scrubber for the first time recently. I had to clean a church with a lot of pews and two bathrooms. The versatility of the scrubber was awesome. Because of the size I was able to fit the scrubber beside the toilet, and it scrubbed the caulking around the toilet at the same time. The tile floors between the pews were another challenge, but the scrubber size made it easy to maneuver throughout. It cut my cleaning time in half and lowered my cost in man hours. I am seriously considering purchasing another scrubber to cut even more time cleaning down and/or to allow one machine to cool, on large jobs, while I continue to work with the other. 3 machines would be ideal. Thanks Prolux.

    FANTASTIC!!
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine was AMAZING!!!! It's easy to use and did a phenomenal job! I would definitely recommend to anyone with a large floor! It wasn't as loud as I was expecting, so that was a nice surprise. SUPER great product! Our floor gets mopped often but this machine made it look like it's never been cleaned a day in it's life! We have a huge floor at our business and this was so great!

      Tough little floor polisher!
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hello! The reason that I wanted to post this review and tell you why I bought this floor polisher is probably very different from other people. I bought it to help me strip and prepare my concrete for sealing and waxing. All summer I worked on my downstairs, moving furniture, and tearing out carpet, so that I could seal and wax the concrete. When I took the carpet out, it was a nightmare! The builders left paint and concrete patch all over the slab! I used a grinder on my dining room, and it caused a lot of dust. I decided to get the Prolux so I could wet scrub, plus I would need it to buff and polish the finished floor (also to strip wax eventually, etc.) The Prolux would be useful to me and, at 13 inches, it was the right size! If you look at the pictures, you will see how much work it did! Also, the customer service was nice. I had a concrete polish pad, but the floor polisher pad holder failed. I let them know and they replaced the pad holder. Thanks Prolux! (PS buy the package so you get the pad holder and the pads)

        Gets the job done
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The buffer gets the job done but requires patience while using. The reason I gave it 3 stars is because the buffers attachment kept falling off which made me feel unsafe while using. I used it to scrub our kitchen tile and had to stop several times to fix the buffer attachment. Pros: Light weight Small in size Adjust handle Easy to Store away Long power cord Cons: Doesn’t feel commercial grade Buffer attachments comes off while using

          ITS NOT A HEAVY DUTY BUFFER
          This is a poorly made tool. DO NOT BUY. The 13in Core Prolux main issue is that it's not a heavy duty floor buffer as advertised. How can it be at 150 RPM's? Next the pads do not stay attached to the black pad holder. It's just poorly made. Next, once you attach the telescopic handle to the buffer its very difficult to detach it. This would make it more easy to store. If you are 6ft+ it's very difficult to maneuver the handle. It's too short. DO NOT BUY.

            Impressed with the quality
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the Prolux Core to better care for our hardwood and tile floors. We've not been satisfied with the results we get by scrubbing on our hands and knees then mopping and applying floor squeeze bottle floor finishes only to leave streaks and less than acceptable results. With the Prolux Core I can easily strip the floor of residual finishes, clean the floor to prepare the surface, apply new product and buff to the desired luster and hardness. The Prolux Core is extremely well made and balanced. It is easy to operate without any gouging or jumping, and the random orbital pattern doesn't leave any application streaking. I see no reason that this machine wouldn't last for decades. We have a very busy household with several big dogs and we look forward to finally being able to keep our floors looking good.

              Great Scrubber and buffer
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for cleaning and polishing my concrete floor in my workshop and it did a great job. Glad I bought it.

                GREAT! GREAT! GREAT!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So happy I found this machine. Easy to use and to store away. Well made. I already used on my tile floors. Can't wait to use on my garage floor. Worth every penny!

                      13” Used to scrub indoor tiles
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this about 2 weeks ago. Our tile floor is much cleaner after 2 uses. While we were concerned there may be water splashing on the side, we did not experience the same (we didn’t use that much water). The machine is slightly heavy, so while the weight is good for scrubbing it may be heavy for a frail person to carry up the stairs. The motor doesn’t seem to be that powerful as compared to industrial versions - it does the job for residential use. I don’t know if the same motor is used for both the 13” and 15” versions. We have not had it long enough for a longer term review.

                        Good Lightweight Scrubber
                        We purchased the Core scrubber/polisher in October 2022. We have used it to clean the new concrete floor in our large garage. The unit is lightweight enough to move around easily without fighting to control it. The 30 ft cord is just right for our purposes. Would recommend it for scrubbing medium sized floors. One improvement would be to have a light at the front to help illuminate darker areas.

                          do not purchase this piece of crap
                          This is a piece of crap, its a toy, do not purchase it. It broke within 30 minutes of use. I sent emails I called and I went on facebook to the manufacture and its been 7 days and I have not received a response. Its a terrible product and an even worse company (Prolux) do not buy this item or any other item from Prolux. One star is way too much but it did not allow me to rate it any less.

                            clean as a whistle
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband bought this floor polisher in March 2022. We had a small Boss model from a different company. It just couldn't keep up with our demand of 2000 square feet of wood floors. We are very pleased with our Prolux heavy duty polisher. It has plenty of cord and is easy to handle and store. We would recommend this product to anyone looking for a quality floor polisher for their home or business.

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product about six months ago and I love the results I get on my floor from using this buffer

                                Big results in a small package!!!!
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a small cleaning company and purchased this machine specifically for a healthcare clinic floor that remained difficult to clean thoroughly. First, it was affordable for me and my small budget, 2nd, it has the weight I needed to properly clean the floor, and 3rd it came with many different pads for me to use. The microfiber pads gives a great clean without fear of damaging any type flooring. The bristle brushes are awesome for getting the dirt out of all the little textured grooves that were making my stress levels rise. I use my machine on a weekly basis and I’m so happy I purchased this product.

                                  This is exactyly what I needed
                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the Pro Lux Single Pad Commercial Polisher for my colored concrete floors. I really love the look of polished concrete floors in Mid Century Modern home like I have. My floors were a matte sheen and dull looking. I followed the recommendation of a commercial flooring refinisher to to the matte finish. I was not happy. So, I treated the floors with a high gloss polish and burnished them with the Pro Lux polisher and WOW - they just jumped out. The best purchase I have ever made to maintain the look and feel of my MCM home. Every time I clean my floors I pull out the Pro Lux polisher to give it a boost in sheen. I was considering putting in Terrazzo floors but I am completely satisfied with a high gloss on concrete look - made possible with the Pro Lux Commercial Floor Polisher

I have wood floors throughout our home and the core does exactly what I need to clean and polish my wood floors. It works great and is easy to use. It has the power and the attachments to get the job done. My floors look great thanks to the Core.

                                        Great vacuum
                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this vacuum a few weeks ago. I had not used the brand in the past. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to put together. It cleans really well. It glides across the carpet very easy and adjust to my hardwood floors with no problem. I recommend the vacuum and would purchase again.
