Concrete Mixer

highpeaks

I'm looking to purchase a portable electric concrete mixer. Not as concerned with price as I am quality. I saw this one :Kushlan Products, Inc. Model 600 W Concrete Mixer Model 600W-053509 at Home Depot. [IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Cary/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg[/IMG] Does anyone have any experience with it. Would like some suggestions. Thx [IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Cary/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg[/IMG]

Personally, unless you use it a couple times a year or plan on buying a couple of them per year, that thing is junk.

This is the one we sell:

It is about twice the cost, but worth it. My personal one is almost 10 years old and has many, many yards of concrete and mortar run through it.

the mixer that the op is talking about is a decent one. i have it and it works well for what i need it to do. can mix 2+ bags with ease and it is mobile because of the wheelbarrel frame. and is stable because it has two front wheels so you can dump where you need it.

I was wrong, anyway. Mine is this one (on the stand), with a metal drum.

It is 14 years old not 10.

I have the Belle 150. Bought it used from my local rental place. Trouble free for the last 3 years. I use it occasionally to pour small footings for steps or small slabs on grade for stone jobs.
