I built SUNMAX to sell commercial floor cleaning machines and electric pallet equipment directly from the factory to the end buyer.

The problem was simple: a warehouse manager or school facilities director buying an industrial floor scrubber was paying 30-40% extra just to fund a distributor chain. The machines themselves aren't that different from name brands — same duty cycle, same components.

We ship from Whittier, CA, stock US parts, and run our own technical support line. No third-party dealers involved.

The mildly interesting technical piece: we built a machine selector tool that matches equipment to facility square footage and floor type, which cuts down a lot of back-and-forth before someone places an order.

Free freight, 30-day returns, up to 2-year warranty. Would love feedback on the buying experience and where the friction points are.
