Vitrex VITMIX850 850W 230V Power Mixer

I have been using this on a fortnightly basis on average for well over a year in light building work and so far it's been reliable mixing plaster, tile adhesive and mortar which it's especially good at for re-pointing mixes. I would recommend it for light to medium use most definitely.

I am a DIY enthusiast and dabble in a bit of plastering. I had been using an attachment to my SDS drill but decided to upgrade. This handy "pack-away-able" mixer was brilliant. I liked the weight and feel of it and the variable speed was useful once I got the hang of it. It mixed up a good few buckets of plaster with no problems and a nice smooth result. Very pleased with this purchase. Great value for money.

It was bought to mix some floor tile adhesive. It did this well, about 1/4 of a bag at a time with no problem. It was cheap compared with most other similar tools and may be under rated to mix concrete etc. But it saved me loads of time and was certainly worth the money for what I wanted it for. I suspect it would not last long with continuous professional use but great for occasional DIY jobs.

Great value for money - exceeded my expectations by far. Mixed 20Kg bag of tile adhesive without any problem at all , very controllable and lightweight.

Excellent price, great mixer for plasterers, my only gripe is the control button doesn't always shut off when released, so you have to make sure it's in your hand and control when initially switching on, otherwise quite dangerous

It's small and lightweight andd a decient make so with any luck it should last a while. No problems so far but you have to make sure you clean the paddle properly.

This mixer is very light and surprisingly powerful. I mixed 5 spades of cement with 8 spades of sand for a stiff mortar. I put the water in first and added the materials gradually to help the machine. There was no need to. It coped easily. It has a very good variable speed operated by the trigger in much the same way as a hand drill. I cannot speak more highly of this machine. Definitely recommend it.

Brilliant. Really worth the money. Has saved me using my drills etc and the arttached mixer is really good. Dont make the same mistake as i did and order an extra generic mixer head as it wont fit, and besides there is not need as the attached is far more robust then the other ones, easy to wash and does the job. Used it for a build i am doing and it has worked really well. Ceratinly worth the money.
