Bought one of those the last time ---- Aldi angle grinders NBG --- angle reduction gears are made out of toffee

Look out for Lidl "Park" brand ones --- very good quality big motor variable speed.

Watch out if just buying the discs as they are 5", not the more common 4.5". They will fit in some 4.5 grinders but will probably catch on the guard.

I've had an Aldi grinder for 3 years now with a backing pad and use fibre disks on it, it's still going well. Both my grinders are 125mm, it's a standard size, disks last longer and access is better than smaller size for no significant cost difference. The Aldi powercraft tools are supplied by the same place as Screwfix Ferm tools, their warehouse is near us at Kirkby in Ashfield.
