9" angle grinder recommendation

mrcpea · Apr 27, 2014

Hi,
Looking to buy a 9" angle grinder.
I have some large steel angle and 1 1/2" box section steel to cut up and later this year, want to cut some paving slabs to do our patio. Also othe jobs will crop up Im sure from time to time.
I was thinking of a dewalt grinder as they've got a good reputation.

I've seen this on and it's within what I want to pay.
Anyone got one of these, or recommend something better?
Completely open to suggestions and welcome sound advice.

Cheers in advance

Re:

With (cabled) grinders I've never seen any particular benefits from more expensive brands over the cheapies in either longevity or features - mostly that's been with 4.5" ones as I don't use 9" grinders often enough to have burned any out. You're not likely to get the cheaper ones in 110V but of course that's not an issue at home.

Many thanks for all advice and offers

I have managed to borrow one for what I need to do at the moment.

Cheers
