Great mixer, mixed 84 bags of concrete on a Saturday morn, didn't miss a beat. Next project will be my driveway.

At first I was not going to give it 5 stars but with the super low price I got it for , 3 day ship time and how well built it is for a cement mixer gave it 5 . First the bad . At the price of $263 I figured it probably was in a damaged box . Check that one off . Box looked to have been dropped from a few feet probably in shipping out from the warehouse . All parts were inside and 95% undamaged . The frame had a bad scrape on the bottom but since I know this equipment will not stay in perfect condition ( I am gonna treat it like a dog } I can overlook that . And yes I love dogs just a saying . Planning a few hundred bags of mix going through it so we shall see in a year or two how well made it is . Assembly was easy , given the fact the instructions are very vague . I guess the tech writers assume only skilled pros would buy this . Your average homeowner might have a hard time because the instructions did not have a lot of detail . Also if you do buy one beware you will need some long extensions to tighten the inside barrel flange bolts and the drum hold down bolt for the drum motor connection . I ended up using 5 6 inch extensions and a 12 inch extension to tighten it all to torque . BTW they only specify the torque for the motor housing gearbox . I recommend 35 fp on the barrel flange and 50 fp on the gearbox flange bolt just to be safe . Once assembled and powered it runs great . So much torque if you grab the barrel in spin the motor could flip the entire mixer . I did a safety test just to see what kind of power it has and I recommend caution until you are familiar with its power . This thing can hurt you if you get clothing or and arm caught up anywhere near the flange motor area . Overall amazon service was good and the product great . If it makes my concrete projects easy I am all for that .

I've put about 45 bags through this mixer. It has the HP to handle 3 80lb bags, but I only recommend doing 2 at a time because it gets gummed up at the bottom.

Not worth everything I had to go through to receive the product

Works very well. Easy to move around and pore, no need for a wheelbarrow to move the mixed cement. I would have given it 5 stars but because it was difficult for one person to assemble it and it did not come with the gear oil needed for it to operate. Also, the nuts and bolts are not galvanized so I expect to start to rust rather quickly. Otherwise, once it's assemble and oiled up, it's lived up to expectations.
