So I bought this to help me cast a foundation for a fence I am building. The foundation was 18" x 18" x 35'. My mix was a 1:2:3 mix of cement, sand and gravel (in this country this is like sharp sand mixed with stones). My first 2 mixes were 1:3:3 but the sand seemed to be too much and caused some sticking to the bottom of the drum. With tweaking (gravel and water in first, followed up by half of the sand then half of the cement, then the remainder and minimal additional water as necessary) and use of the recommended angle for concrete (about 60* vs about 45* for mortar - guessing as I didn't measure) the process became smooth. The capacity of the drum allowed half of a 5 gallon bucket of cement, one 5 gallon bucket of sand, and 1.5 buckets of the aforementioned gravel, and half a bucket of water. By my calculation this gives 1.6 cubic feet of concrete or approximately a full wheelbarrow's worth. Now this is the 4 cubic foot model I am speaking about, but this amount fit comfortably at the working angle, mixed well and did not spill or splash out much.
I managed to work all day long and mix and pour 9 bags of cement at 90 lbs each...which is a lot for me compared to mixing manually ( I would probably give up after mixing 2 bags). The quality of the concrete was good. The machine itself worked like a beast, all day long. No issues, handled the material well. I did not get the sense that it was struggling or under strain once the mix was achieved. I rested the machine minimally between mixes while I poured the barrow of concrete, a 5 minute break between bags, and a 15 minute break every 2 bags ostensibly to prevent "machine" overheating ( which is what I told my wife, lol) but really it was for me.
Overall, I was impressed. Great value for the money. Build quality was excellent in my opinion at that price point. Worked well and all day long. I would recommend it, and I would buy it again, although it seems like there is a lot of life left in this machine.
Update:
Unit worked well. Unit too short to dump into wheelbarrow, so I built a 8" stand out of 2" X 8" & 1/2" plywood. Worked perfect. Mixed 30ea 60Lbs bags of cement in several hours. Mixed well. I think the maximum capacity and still get a good mix would be a 150Lbs or a 90Lb and 60Lb bag. Add some water first, then cement & remaining water, with mixer in #1 position, then switch to #3 position to mix. Would have given the unit 5 stars if it was tall enough to use with a wheelbarrow, but overall a very good unit for the money.
I looked into a rental from the local big box stores and it was ~$60 for a day but only came in the 4+ cubic ft versions which I don’t have an easy way to transport. I ordered the 1.6 mixer and assembly was very easy, all parts are numbered, and as others have mentioned, look up a video or image of the mixer to better understand the blade orientation.
Using the mixer was also just as easy. I was using 60lb bags which called for 1.9L of water. I started by setting the mixer at the first tilt angle and adding all of the water. Then I slowly poured the 60lb bag in and tilted the mixer to the second or third notch (about 45 degrees). I sprayed a little bit more water with the hose if it looked a bit dry. After a few minutes I slid my plastic tray underneath and dumped the batch. Sometimes there was a bit that got stuck to the sides so I’d spray some more water and let it run or scrape it off and dump it into the batch.
After the first one, I started mixing the next batch right away while I went to pour and float the current one. This is where the time savings really started adding up because I could let it mix for 3-5 min while I was pouring, leaving very little wasted time as you would when hand mixing each batch. I may have been able to fit 1.5 or 2 bags at a time but I didn’t feel the need to after getting into the rhythm of measuring and mixing. I was able to pour and spread 22 60lb bags in just about two hours. This gave me plenty of time to get the whole slab floated and evenly distributed without worrying about the batches starting to set. I can’t imagine how much longer it would’ve taken to mix all those bags by hand!
Cleanup was just as easy. I put the mixer to near vertical and sprayed water inside. I brought the pan back to dump the water out and repeated a few times until the drum was clean. I wiped down the inside and outside with a damp towel and then took the tray outside to rinse it with my other tools.
This mixer ended up being the perfect size for my project and will be easy to lift and store in the attic for future uses.
