Cement mixer (Aldi).
Is a similar one available elsewhere for a similar price? Will this
fit into an ordinary saloon car (I assume it's supplied dismantled)? |

I was going to go and get one tomorrow morning at 9. That *should* be when they're first available, unless I've lost a day - POSSIBLE. I think machine mart do the same one, but a little more to pay.

You've got tablets?!?! I've only got cheap booze, but I do my best! I think machine mart do the same one, but a little more to pay. Machine mart... hmm... wibbly wobbly web.somewhere.let'ssee About £180 including the dreaded! Delivery takes it up to a pint and a bit short of £190, & the Aldi thing's got a 3 year guarantee which suits my work pattern admirably. Seem to have just upset some bird called "Dot", unintentionally, but never mind. Best have another 'cos I've got to get up early. Cya! |

I think machine mart do the same one, but a little more to pay. FWIW, I got one - it's a 550W motor, not the 380W on the web page. Fits into my car's boot - would probably fit on the back seat if I had opened the box. Looks good, but I'm not working outside in this weather, though! |

Interesting comparison - Aldi, £129.99 - Tesco are £70 dearer! They haven't got the power rating right, either! |

I considered buying one, then inspected it in the shop, to find that it is horribly dangerous, and could easily cause fatalities if used. It says 1420RPM on the box... |

Heh, I saw that, too - "no load speed" - I think something's been lost in the translation (I think 29 RPM is a bit nearer the mark!). After I got it back 'ere, I noticed that it says "Seek assistance from staff when buying this item due to its weight" or words to that effect. It *was* a bit awkward to put in the boot, that's fersure. |

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Chris Bacon saying something like: manatbandq wrote: Chris Bacon wrote: FWIW, Blah, blah, blah What's up, I suppose you're too thick to see what's DIY related and what isn't shrug. Why don't you post an advert, just to liven things up? -- Dave |

I haven't got one to post - however, if it's OK with you, I will e-mail the next commercial advertiser to congratulate them, offer my support in case their ISP is contacted, and write an additional FAQ. Whatever you like. 'K? |
