Hi, I'm looking for recommendations regarding cement mixers. I had an old belle minimix that my dad bought about 35 years ago. it was a good workhorse but it had been outside all those years and it could only mix about a bucket of mortar at a time. The drum would jam if you put more in,. Anyway, it was stolen out of the garden the other night so I'm looking around at a replacement. I've found two online that look reasonable. there is one that is a belle 150 mixer. and a different site with another marked as a belle minimix 150 that looks the same but the former is about €100 more. They both have the same drum size at 130 -140 litres and they both hold 90 litres capacity My question is, is there likely to be that much of a difference in the price? Or am I missing something and they're different machines? ANY advice is most apreciated.

Are you certain one mixer is the 130 but the other is a 150?
The 150 is a much stronger machine.
If it’s a petrol machine, the Honda one is more expensive than the Loncin equipped mixer.

Sorry but I really don't know......they all seem to be Minimix over here.
I guess you'll have to contact the supplier.
Brilliant machines though at a very reasonable price.

I remember working on something like this
I know your not looking at something that big, but the main thing was it could weigh the drum, so you could make an accurate batch. Some of the small mixers are also made so a weighing part can be added, even if not as standard supplied with it. It all depends on what you want the concrete for, I know we have some small ones at work, however in the main either we want more than the small one can really do, or we want it where there is no power, so they look like new, as hardly ever used.
