How The Mercury BOSS-1 Compares To The LoBoy L-17E And Hercules H-17S
Facility managers and flooring contractors evaluating Mercury's floor machine lineup usually face this question: should I get the fixed-apron LoBoy L-17E for quiet buffing, the sealed-motor Hercules H-17S for dusty sanding, or this interchangeable-apron BOSS-1 for maximum flexibility across floor types and facility sizes?
Here's the honest comparison:
| Feature | Mercury LoBoy L-17E, Fixed 17" Apron ($1,819) | Mercury Hercules H-17S, Fixed 17" Apron, Sealed Motor ($3,307) | Mercury BOSS-1, Interchangeable Aprons ($1,717) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Apron Configuration | Fixed 17" apron, non-interchangeable | Fixed 17" apron, non-interchangeable | Interchangeable, switch among 13", 15", 17", 19", or 21" aprons on the same machine |
| Motor | Precision-balanced, heavy-duty 1.5 HP, 66-frame A/C motor | 1.5 HP, 66-frame A/C motor with sealed bearings | Precision-balanced, super heavy-duty 1.5 HP, 66-frame motor |
| Motor Dust Resistance | Not built for dust-heavy applications | Sealed bearings lock dust out for longer motor life | Standard motor, not sealed |
| Speed | 175 RPM | 175 RPM | 175 RPM (dual-speed 175/300 RPM model also available) |
| Included Apron | 17" apron included with pad driver | 17" apron included with pad driver | Aprons sold separately, buyer selects size(s) needed |
| Noise Level | Ultra-quiet, hospital-quiet operation | Not marketed as ultra-quiet | Not marketed as ultra-quiet |
| Warranty | 5-year manufacturer's warranty on motor and chassis/gearbox | Standard Mercury warranty | 5-year warranty on motor, gearbox, transmission, and chassis (1-year labor) |
| Best Suited For | Noise-sensitive facilities needing quiet buffing at one fixed size | Dusty wood sanding or stone/concrete grinding work | Facilities or contractors needing one machine to cover multiple room sizes and floor types |
Why The Mercury BOSS-1 Is Worth The Investment
This isn't just a floor machine, it's built with an interchangeable apron system that switches among five different sizes on the same machine, giving facility managers and flooring contractors the ability to handle tight closets, standard rooms, and expansive open floors all from one machine instead of owning multiple fixed-size units.
The BOSS-1 specifically addresses the needs of facility managers and flooring contractors who work across varied space sizes and floor types, and who want to eliminate the cost and hassle of maintaining a fleet of different floor machines.
One Machine, Five Aprons, No More Equipment Swapping. Instead of owning separate 13", 17", and 21" machines for different room sizes, the BOSS-1's interchangeable apron system lets you switch sizes on demand, meaning one machine adapts to nearly any floor care job a facility or contracting business is likely to encounter.
Built For Tough, Versatile Floor Care
The 1.5 HP high-torque motor delivers consistent power to tackle demanding jobs like stripping, scrubbing, and buffing
The interchangeable apron system switches among five sizes (13", 15", 17", 19", 21") to handle any floor type or cleaning challenge
The triple-planetary transmission provides smooth, heavy-duty performance even under substantial workloads
Engineered For Durable, Comfortable Operation
The all-metal polished aluminum chassis is easy to keep clean and resists wear over years of use
The fully adjustable handle makes the BOSS-1 comfortable for operators of all sizes
Non-marking, fixed 6-inch wheels make transport easy without damaging floors or walls
Real Savings
Interchangeable aprons eliminate the cost of purchasing multiple fixed-size floor machines for different room sizes
A 5-year warranty on motor, gearbox, transmission, and chassis reduces the risk of costly repairs over the life of the machine
One versatile machine reduces storage space and fleet management costs compared to maintaining several dedicated units
Free shipping and no sales tax through Summit Forge Supply keeps the total cost down compared to buying elsewhere and paying tax and freight separately
The Bottom Line Facility managers and flooring contractors who work across varied room sizes and floor types can't afford the cost and storage burden of maintaining separate fixed-size floor machines for every job. The Mercury BOSS-1 is built with an interchangeable apron system, a powerful 1.5 HP motor, and a 5-year warranty, so it adapts to nearly any floor care job with a single machine. For anyone covering a range of space sizes as a regular part of the work, this is the machine built to handle it all.
