I asked people to join the thread as you said there was nobody who used EZE's on here... No win situation with you sometimes.
I also advise looking at various machines. This is why we offer the option to hire 1st. We also offer a range of machines from different manufacturers
Sorry guys didn't mean to start a war ;-) I appreciate all the input though. I think I might go with refina joke guys joke ;-D
I never noticed this. i thought you weren't talking to me tonight.
where by did i say there was no EZE users ?
where by did you say go try other machines ?
It is a lovely little machine isn't it, and at 46kg I bet its a dream to wheel about. But when you get to work and your looking at 1500kg of powder that needs putting on the wall a day, you kinda realise lifting a slightly heavier machine out the van is much easier that knocking up all that gear by hand and spoon feeding the little machine.I'm not into machine plastering but I've seen the EZE 24 working and moved one around. It's a lovely compact machine.
Not seen the other one mentioned on here so I can't compare or comment.
..pretty sure I've got a pic of one knocking around somewhere.. :RpS_cool:

Haha, quite possibly true :RpS_scared:. At the end of the day which one would you want to lift back in your van though :RpS_laugh:
Sorry Ryan, please don't hate me.
No, not possibly true. It is true.
The heavier one! Because it's still lighter work than knocking all that gear up!
What do you mean? What issues are they?Yes @Wezly but you have all the other issues like water pumps and pressures and whatever else you see in posts on this very forum.
Your man still has to pick each bag up and put it in the hopper.
Not debating the fact a mixing machine is great. Yes it is easier. Sometimes it's not always required. This is another reason why we sell a range if machines to give people the option. We also keep them in stock for people to see
This would be a good machine to start with then? less of an initial outlay especially if you haven't used a machine before?
Water settings for different material you mean? Not an issue as such.Always see posts about what pressure for this which inlet,top or bottom. Suction hoses. The list goes on mate.
Then I went to Rugby and broke myself ;-)
Well, they can't be that bad. Ryan asked me to come down to do some product shots for him and while I was there I watched a demo of the EZE 24. The lads who were being shown it soon picked up confidence in using it and were impressed - so much so they bought it. A short while later another plasterer bought one.

As much as I love to I'm not goin to slate anyone. But to give an opinion having owned a ritmo and a g4. Knocking up for yourself to then put it into a machine pretty much defies the point in having a machine. All this nonsense about trying to compare labour etc is also just rubbish.
Unless you have a small job,a Couple of walls in hardwall say 6 bags then yeah great o might work for you. And if you only spray top coat acrylic then yes it might work. But day to day work and using a machine for the purpose machines were made, then you need it to mix for you.
The comparison in labour. Ryan said you need a guy to lift bags anyway. This is true. And in the set up you need water butts. This is also true. But if you have a labourer knocking up for a machine he will firstly need to be bloody quick. His mixes will need to be spot on and and he will need a water butt. Even then it is counter productive. And then to suggest well in that case just upgrade and get a continuous mixer to add on. Again you will need your water butts and water pumps. At that point you may have well have just bought a mixing pump.
Is that what an eze is supposed to look like.
