Had one and it seemed to work fine. We didn't do much VCT work so not a lot of experience with it.

Its drawbacks are:
It is loud
When used dry you need a hepa vac
When used wet it splashes a little

Never used it on uneven floors but I imagine with SPP pads and vibrating it would still scrub it well. ???

I'll sell you mine with HEPA vac :)

It does well for scrubbing and recoating. It is loud, it will vibrate your hands. If you use it wet it makes a mess unless you go easy on the liquid. It obviously gets into corners and edges well. I prefer to do strip and wax so don't use it anymore.

If you use a red or white pad before the SPP pad it does a good job on uneven surfaces. Sometimes you have to make a checkerboard pattern to get to the really uneven spots.

I use the (not square scrub name) machine on most strip jobs. They are great for edging. They’re good on uneven floors, or after using 175
that might glide over an uneven floor. I use it to repair footprints people make in finish before it dries. They have all kinds of uses.
