Default Sanding hardwood floors.

I'm planning on sanding my floors and redo them. Are there different choices of machines to use.? I've seen those machines from HomeDepot and it did a shitty job, left burn marks etc even when still having the machine being moved around. I'm just wondering if there are different kinds to use and the best way to sand them.

I dont know about the machines but you need to extinguish any pilot flames in the house while sanding. The dust can very easily combust into a flash fire and rip through your house...
