It is a random orbit, dual action polisher. The general consensus is the G9 is a best bet for the weekend warrior and many prefer it to MaxShine M15. Griots has a good reputation for warranty and customer service.

I bought one of these years ago, this is a great deal. Great tool, low vibration, pretty sturdy, and check out that warranty

Is this better than the TORQX?

Been wanting one of these, but I know nothing of paint correction and polishing. I'm just worried about burning the clear coat. Any people with on hand experience with this machine here? I heard there's machines that is impossible to burn your clear coat. Is this one of them?

It would be no brainer to choose G9 over Torqx not only because G9 performs better but Griot also offers life time warranty to their polishers.

Do not worry. With dual action polishers you will never burn your paint unless you are idiotic enough to polish on one same spot over and over and not moving your buffer around.

With a little technique and a mild compound, you should be able to do several overlapping passes without any degradation to the clear.
Check out some ammo nyc clips on the youtubes.

Good price for a great product.

This is a great polisher and easy to use. Complete novice myself but did both polishing and waxing and didn't have any issues with getting a feel for doing it evenly and getting the hang of it. Would recommend and don't feel intimidated.
