Some possible bargains here

Which reminds me I must try and get my Aldi electric hoist fixed.
Tried it two days ago and it only buzzes and can be persuaded to run if the fan blades are given a push.

Needless to say the hoist was bought 1 year and four days ago

Luckily there is a 3 year manufacturer's warranty so I will phone them on Monday.

I knew those compressors were coming in soon and was waiting for them, forget it at that price though

That seems like a very good price to me? The equivalent compressor in Machine Mart is £180.

It does seem like a decent price, I paid £40 for a 6 litre one and spend more time waiting for it to charge than I do actually using it!!

You did remind me that I need to buy the filter kit though, thanks.

I've ordered the large cushions and the long dried bouquet

Can get an equivalent draper for a Tenner more.

Price is spiralling up, £59 in 2007, £69 in 2008, £82 in 2009.

When it was £69 you also had this little lot included in the package -

1 gravity spray gun
1 dip tube spray gun
1 tyre inflater gun with pressure gauge
1 air blaster gun
1 garden sprayer for wood stain etc
1 5m hose
1 10m hose



Obviously nothing fantastic but its been much better value in the past

Tool station are doing one same price with hose, gravity spray gun inflator gun and nozzles, PAT

if you look carefully they are the stupid euro type fitting not the commercial bayonet type, if the hose is anything like the liddl one it's 6mm cheap fuel hose quality

As the prices have gone up so has the spec of the compressor. I got one of the original ones and its 1.5hp, I then got another (cause I wanted more power) and it was 2hp. These are 2.5hp.
