PC vs UDM Fight!
I was thinking about purchasing a UDM from bettercarcare for 119$!! Before this I was going to purchase the PC combo for 200$ at autogeek. The one thing that i noticed is that in the 200$ PC combo is that they include the counterweight. I tried searching more info on what comes with the UDM from bettercarcare but they do not list the counterweight as part of their 119$ package. Does the counterweight come with the UDM?
Ive heard of many stories and positive reviews of the PC and its ease of use, whats making me lean towards the UDM is that its got a more powerful motor and its better at removing deeper swirls. But on autogeek they also mention that it can burn the paint, any more last tips before i make the jump to purchase one of these two machines?
here is the link showing that the counterweight is part of their combo

The UDM has a counterweight... but its for 5 inch pads IIRC. And most pads used are 6 inch pads, which means a little more vibration, but a little rest in between use makes this alot easier. I spent 10 hours one day using a UDM, and I was a little sore the next day, but nothing unbearable. They are putting out a newer "version" of it, (They are making the cord a little longer, and giving it a 6 inch pad counterweight), but as far as release date, I don't think it has been determined yet.
