chrisb Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Aldi had 1700w breakers in a couple of weeks ago for £99.99. I went to pick one up, but they had sold out (unsurprisingly). On a trip back today (for groceries this time) I noticed a small pile of them with the price reduced to £79.99 as they were not in the current special buy leaflet. Imagine my surprise when I got to the till and it said £49.99! So, pop down to your local Aldi for a bargain, till they have none left, anyway.

But it is certainly a tool. Temples and I have about 6 Aldis very close. Thanks Add: Temples? I am sure I said tempting.

daiking Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Is this man enough to take on a 100mm+ thk concrete drive? Will keep a look out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney12 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Depends a lot on the strength of the concrete and the area you've got to dig up. It will probably do it but then so would a standard SDS drill with enough time, sweat and tears! I would want something with a bit more ooomph. https://www.speedyservices.com/11_0266-h-heavy-duty-breaker-29-9kg-te3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisb Posted October 19, 2016 Author Share Posted October 19, 2016 I'm hoping mine will break up an old garage base - I've experience of using the SDS drill as a breaker at a previous house, and it was tedious. I hope this has enough oopmh to make it a bit easier, but also not so heavy that I can't lift the thing - I'm about to have hip surgery and after 8 weeks on crutches I'm not going to be up to doing much. The online reviews seem fairly positive. Time will tell, and if its naff, then I've spent £50 and not £100 on a naff tool :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
