What's your favorite spinner/surface kit. I want to change surfaces at home and wanted an option outside of just doing it by hand.

PhysiX
Code X
Code Black
Axiom Pearl
Phaze III
Trend
IQ Tour

Vertex 1/3 hp is all you need. Mine is over 10 years old.
Does a round object have sides? I say yes, pizza has triangles..

I have had Innovative's 1/2 hp unit since 2014 and like it a lot. Innovative offers a contour sanding block--a nice accessory for your surface kit.

+1 on 1/2 hp Innovative.  I think Vertex and Innovative are now owned by the same company or something (edit: maybe not).  Regardless can't go wrong with either.  Even heard people swear by Donkee as well.  I will say go at least 1/2 HP (will prevent motor overheating basically ever) which ever brand you get and don't worry about multi-speed too much unless you are going to run a pro shop or something.

I have had my spinner for about 20 years now.  It doesn't have a name on it that I can find but it is a single speed 1/3 HP, whatever was being used in pro shops back then.  I usually prefer using scotch-brite and abralon pads.

I think mine is a innovative 1/3 rd. Bought it used years ago for 20 bucks after my donkey fell apart. It's old but still works good
The harder I try the harder they fall
