a utiform 3 cyclinder diesel £18,000 mixer :RpS_thumbup:
or a an 1800 watt mm30 from refina about 350 quid if im feeling fruity.

i had tried loads of cheap whists when i started out plastering, but most were tripe.

I've had my megamixer for nearly 8 years and it's never stopped! If you can borrow some money to get a proper mixer I'd definitely do that. Lads I work with buy cheap and they're always replacing them. Like Owls said its your main tool!

If you're going to spend atleast £100 on a mixer i'd just save abit more and get a REFINA MM19/1 Mega Mixer, which is what i did after that piece of crap mixer in the link above died on me. Buy cheap buy twice with mixers they just burn out when used every day.

I've mixed everything with the megamixer and it doesn't struggle, and it's not the £300 pound one.

I've used other peoples Evolution mixer that screwfix sells before, and found it mixed well for a small, light mixer.
 
If you mean you cant afford a Refina, Ive had a Belle Promix 1600 for about 5 years, never had a problem, have mixed a water butt 5 bags of hardwall easily, and theyre under £200
 
i bought a evolution twister for £110 from screw fix and its knocking up the mixes from dabing to skim , and it ay bad. thats a 110v,cant comment on the 240v. its lasted 3 weeks solid so far, but when it goes ill be the first to comment
 
i have the belle 1600e same as devon and in 6 years have only had to change the brushes ! nothing can stop it, not even being dropped down the stairs by my bitch!!!!!!
 
Hi guys,
i'm looking for a 240v mixer for under £100.it would only be used for light work...upto a bag of bonding/skim a time.any recomendations as there are loads!!:RpS_unsure:
already have a 110v megamixer for heavier work:RpS_thumbsup:

cheers
 
Have a look at the Stikunpodger super dupa eco friendly knockerruper bucketoskim cream creator .had one for years and has never let me down . cheap to run , no long leads to trip over there for reducing accidents in the work place .Go on treat ya lab to one he will be for ever thankful.:RpS_thumbup:
 
nps...i'm doing maintance work,so don't always need a decent drill,having to lug a tran about is a pain if i only need a small mix,would free a bit of mixing space up2.

by the way i'm in wakey...have you seen any of those drills in aldi mate?
