Following the thread the other day I've been looking into a decent 9" angle
grinder.
I have a Performance Power one, which works fine, except for the
cheap'n'nasty hub release tool they supply, which bent and died ages ago.
I've resorted in the past to binning the supplied tool and buying a decent
one from my local tool specialist.
A second 9" grinder would be useful right now for a few projects I'm working
on. So, should I buy another PP grinder for £40 or a Makitta for £80?
Do Makitta grinders have a better hub release method than the round nut with
4 holes used by cheap grinders? I would expect a Makitta to last longer - is
this true? I've written-off a PP grinder in the past due to chewed gear
teeth in the "angle" drive.

Many thanks,

Alan.
