Is there anyone on this forum purchased a Dewalt Paddle Mixer , just wondering what there like for £600 ? Do like the idea of not lugging round 110 transformer though plus extension lead . But does it justify the coin ?

No it will rip your battery down mate
Brilliant for 1 man doing 90% skimming...
I feel like im going to kill it if using for a day dabbing mixing big amounts...
Would buy again in a heart beat though about 6 months in with ours

Don't get me wrong it will mix dab but its the amount if your a dabber well you will be charging batteries quicker but its a very convenient drill worth the money

240v DeWalt is a decent mixer at a competitive price, IMO

Not saying it beats an AlfraEibenstock/Refina, but it's got plenty of torque for less money, if you don't feel like paying top dollar.

I’ve had mine for 3 years. I’ve never found it to struggle with skimming or drywall personally

Eh!
Had mine 3 years been abused even kicked a bucket of water on it by mistake one day 
thought that would of been game over but still going strong on its original battery’s… it’s fine for dab as well doesn’t kill the batteries plenty of lads I know dab day in day out with one

Although I admit that I haven't actually tried a battery Dewalt mixer, you literally took the words right out of my mouth, Andy.
Smaller paddle equals less torque for the motor to struggle with, in a stiff dab mix.
