Locost Angle Grinder and locost corded drill in sales????
Hi Chaps
Anyone seen a cheapo angry grinder and cheapo corded drill online in the sales??? Preferably one that someone has experience of and doesn't
expire after 10 mins!
I know Aldi/Netto/Lidl have these from time-to-time but not very consistent supply so after other suppliers really!
Thanks!

Angle grinders can be considered disposable but I still try and get a fairly decent one. My Bosch one is still going strong after extensive use. I am
pretty sad and strip the gearbox down for a regrease every now and again.

me too - although overfilled it with grease last time. On my aldi one i've buggered up the threaded bit with the bushes in one side so when
they're worn out its time to give it to my dad (he never throws anything out, he fixes all sorts).

got a grinder from homebase about 2 years (?) ago used loads for fibreglass, steel and aluminium, and still going good. for £14, if it breaks, even
after 1 yr, its had a good innings

never used one and heard horror stories of the alloy casing shattering with use. I go for DeWalt anything to be honest - properly reliable...
Not sure about the drill - will have a look for you
