Drywall power sanders - Festool Planex 2 vs Makita

Is more expensive better?! That all depends on what you're looking for in a set up. The Festool Planex 2 is the most advanced and expensive system on the market and for good reason. Exceptional dust control, random orbit, a lighted head, and tons of suction but its $$$$. The Makita is a lot more affordable but doesn't come close with some of the options. But if you're looking for speed the Makita is where it's at. Its fast, cordless and the pad is perfect. What system is your choice? Premium or affordable?
