Surface cleaner swivel comparison

I am in the process of adding a couple more surface cleaners to our arsenal but I am having trouble deciding which route to take. We currently have 3 Mosmatics ( 21" Sirocco conversion, 30" non recovery, and 8" with recovery) and a 24" A+ non recovery. Out of all of these the 24" A+ is by far the favorite as well as the cheapest. The 30" Mosmatic has actually been the biggest disappointment due to slow spin speed. I have attached a video comparison i made last week during a parking garage cleaning. The video shows the huge difference in resistance between the two swivels. The Mosmatic is less than a year old, has never been dropped or had an arm bent but is still noticeably slower which in turn makes for a much slower walk behind. My guy on the 24" was cleaning circles around the guy on the Mosmatic and he was running a smaller machine - 8pgm to the 24" ; 10gpm to the 30"

What I am trying to figure out is what manufactures out there have swivels that are more like the A+? I know the Mosmatic is "known for their great swivels" but I can't understand why if they are all like this?

I would love to hear from anyone doing lots of flat work what brands or models you recommend for efficiency and long term durability.


Thanks in advance

Interesting, I've been using my plus regularly for over a year without any issue, whereas my mosmatic has yet to impress me. At this point I'm tempted to replace the swivel on the mosmatic with another brand but I have no idea what's compatible or which one would be better than what's currently on it.

Have two hammerhead / mosmatic conversions. No problems although swivels turn slowly by hand. They do spin fast under pressure. They did make useful, durable surface cleaners out of the hammerheads.
