Aldi 1700w breaker now £49.99

[chrisb]

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.

Pah. Was hoping for an RCD.

 

But it is certainly a tool. Temples and I have about 6 Aldis very close.

 

Thanks

Temples? I am sure I said tempting.

Is this man enough to take on a 100mm+ thk concrete drive?

 

Will keep a look out.

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.

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 :-)

None in my local anyway
