Only thing the mixm8 won't mix is board adhesive but you do need a good cordless or a coiffed drill. Justskimmed a full house and didn't use anything else. Plasterer I worked with went and bought a good cordless so theycould use 1 in future

Picked that up the other day, couldn't be happier with it. It hardly takes any time to knock a mix up with that anyway so how the hell does mixm8 save you 80% of a short time? Sounds like a load of BS.
I'd also suggest that the counter cyclical forces are going to really strain your motor on the drill so if it is an expensive good quality one I'd think twice.
