CRB Machines

[mark63]

OK, I went 100% encap and i'm never going back, I have a brush pro 17in for res that I use with Releasit solutions (of course) I cant get over the results and ease of use. I notice that my machine has a 2-1/2in wide metal gap between the brushes giving it more width than most other crb's including the "BrushEncap" Most of the crb's are around the same weight, my question is, with me lifting my machine in and out of my truck, up and down stairs and around the different areas on a job, it looks like the more narrow and less bulky model would make a big difference, keeping the machine closer to my body and not as much weight pulling off to the side. Or am I just getting OCD over this? Also I use the Brush Pro to scrub tile once in a while since it has a sealed motor, I don't know if I could do that with other models. I think it's probably a dumb question but I am lifting it a lot all day and age wise i'm in the 5th inning.
