Default Cordless polisher worth getting?

I'm looking for a cordless polisher since I don't have a garage and take my car to self service to clean/detail. Since I don't have a need to polish my entire car and just need to spot polish a couple areas with light marks and spots that won't go away w/ a clay bar, I was wondering if any of these cordless polishers/buffers are worth getting? Thoughts?

Don't bother with the Orbitals, you'll need a circular polisher to take scratches out. You will have to be careful when working with circular polishers, need to work at slow speed with the right pad and right polisher. Wolfgang swirl remover works well. Orange pad.

Don't know much about the cordless stuff, so I can't comment on those. If you're not going to detail a whole lot of cars, I would hire someone professional to help you with the scratches.
