Thinking about buying a cement mixer as I have quite a few jobs to do at home over the next few months, i.e. fence posts, greenhouse base, pond for the Duck!! I hate mixing by hand but can never be bothered to hire a mixer as it might rain or I might not feel like doing any DIY that day.
Have seen 2 at the right price (ie cheap)
Machine Mart £187.94 incl VAT
and
Screwfix £199.99 incl VAT (its under BIG STUFF / Building tools
Any other options?
Any experience of either of these two?
I appreciate they are cheap and therefore not the best quality but I only want them for moderate DIY.

I've used both, and had good service.
As for the mixer, the Belle is probably the most widely used one in the UK, and is a good bit of kit - just bought my second!
If you can, it's worth paying the bit more for the Belle 150 Minimix rather than the Mastermix 130.
