Are my the only one that thinks this tool should have slanted handles like I think the sx-12?. Has anyone used both?. How does your forearms feel after a half hour of running the sx-12?.

Just ran my SX-12 for a couple of hours on Monday... no problem. I've ran it longer than that before and no problems. It's very comfortable to use for long periods.

I have never used another T&G tool, so I can't comment on the difference between the two tools.

I have used tile spinner with a wand type handle,forward back motion. I like the SX12 for the side to side motion IMO.

I prefere the forward and back motion of the Redline Spinner vs. the side to side of the others.

Years of push/pulling a carpet wand make the Redline Spinner seem natural.

I like the change up, easier on your body.


Don't you use a Zipper? How is that a change up? :wink:

I have only played with the sx-12 at connections. I don't have a informed opinion on the subject. :D

I used to use a redline spinner for about 4 years. When the new Turbo Hybrid first came out I demo'ed that and the sx12. I bought the turbo and love it. I just cleaned 2500 square foot home last week all tile......no sore arms after. The Turbo feels much more durable than the sx12, no bending or dipping on the handle.

I've a Spinner with the slanted handles. IMO they need to slant more the opposite way or be straight.
After working with mine for hours on a large job started to chafe on my hands.
The tool works great but at some time I'm going to re-mount the handles.

Put your hands in front of you while your sitting there at the key board. Do your hands face inward or outward?

I prefer the first, about 10-20degree down angle

Back and forth, side to side? They all work in any direction. I prefer the Turbo, works great back and forth and side to side.
