Overview
The Prolux PLC13 is a 13 inch commercial floor buffer with a random orbit motor built to strip, scrub, buff and polish hard flooring like tile and concrete. It suits homeowners with heavily textured or porous tile and small cleaning businesses covering hard floors.
The category listing calls this a floor polisher, but the attribute copy and title confirm it doubles as a scrubber, waxer and sander depending on the pad fitted, and pads are sold separately. The random orbit motor moves in varying directions instead of spinning one way, which the listing says avoids the swirl marks and gouges older single-direction buffers leave behind. A telescopic wand and foot pedal pivot lock point toward commercial janitorial use rather than casual weekend cleaning.
- 13 inch cleaning path at 150 RPM
- Random orbit motor design
- Telescopic height-adjustable wand
- Foot pedal locking pivot release
Who it's for
Best suited to owners of porous or textured tile floors that trap dirt below what a standard mop can reach, and to janitorial or cleaning crews maintaining large hard-surface areas. Not a fit for anyone wanting a plug-and-clean tool with pads already included.
Pros and cons
- Random orbit motor avoids directional swirl marks
- Handles heavily porous or textured tile

Frequently asked questions
Does the Prolux PLC13 come with cleaning pads?
No. The listing notes pads, brushes and microfiber cloths are sold separately so buyers can match the surface being cleaned.
What makes the random orbit motor different from a standard buffer?
Standard commercial buffers spin one direction only, which can leave swirl or sanding marks; the PLC13's random orbit motor moves the pad in varying directions to avoid that, per the listing.
Can the PLC13 be used on carpet as well as hard floors?
The listing lists brushes and pads for surfaces including gym floors and carpet in addition to tile, concrete, laminate and hardwood, though the correct attachment must be selected for each.
