Now my standard corded drill has been my main mixing drill for around a year. Its always stuggled on full 42L truggs, and as my plastering/rendering work increases. Im thinking of buying a mixer drill.

Im looking at:

http://www.screwfix.com/p/sparky-bm-106 ... 240v/87011

Now I know this will cope with multi finish, but what can i expect performance to be like on render (premixed) and also sand and cement?

I currently mix sand and cement on a board or in a mixer, but would be ideal if I could use a mixer drill for it.

If anyone else has any recommendations I would be very grateful.

Can be 110 or 240

Or a cheaper brand such as:

Bigger motor, unbranded, be worth a try?
