They are good for lazy small mixes and dead easy to keep clean but not something I would go out and specifically buy... I used it for dabbing and bonding mixes... it does mix up finish quite well but it can get messy if you get it wrong....

You better run away right now

Not sure what the point of that response is ryan.....

I use mine for little mixes like , works fine just dont lift it right out the plaster , but thats what the cork screw thing is for to pull the gear down , if full buckets im mixing i get the big mixer out though .....

And they do stand up , just make sure the wings r on both sides and it will stand perfectly fine

Used one on a refurb full house mixed with a Milwaukee 18v got 4-5 mixes per charge on full bag mixes. Plasterer I worked with bought same set up because they were so impressed with it. As for not standing up, means it doesn't fall over and damage anything
