Mud MixerMMXR-3221 Heavy Duty Portable Multi Use Mixer

The price seemed a little high at first, but I will say I can't say enough how fantastic this piece of equipment is. If I could give it a 10 out of 5 I would. I have used it on a few small jobs now and I could not be any happier the set up and ease of use is prefect I thought it might be heavy but it really isn't it is very easy to maneuver around the jobsite to the different location that it will be used, it's just the right answer for that jobs you don't really need to call a truck in for. They could put a more supple hose for the wash hose the one they provide is very stiff at no real cost difference they could provide a nicer hose to work with.

I've been keeping an eye on this for a couple years, and finally decided to throw in a buy one. It works great. We're building new Raised Bed Gardens with pre-casted concrete panels that interlock like legos. We can prep the forms pour 4 blocks with 2 - 80 lb bags of concrete in just a few minutes. Matter of fact, for a small job like this where your only doing 1-2 bags on the job, the machine almost goes too fast to keep up. It will be fantastic for small patio / sidewalk jobs, where you can form up enough to run say a whole pallet of concrete bags (42 to pallet). I think bigger job than that, I'm probably thinking about calling in a concrete truck. ALSO, its very to clean when done, just throw a scrap bucket under it and let it run water after no me concrete left, and spray down whole machine with included cleaning hose - DONE!

I bought this for pouring some slabs around my property. Assembly was easy enough, instructions said to use SAE wrenches, but the bolts were metric, which i found odd. Also the bolts and nuts came with only one washer each, instead of having a washer under the head and nut; minor stuff that a quick scrounge in the garage remedied. On to the operation, make sure you have the concrete bags really close to the machine if you are working by yourself, this mixer eats 60 lb. bags quickly and without the hopper extension, you can only fit 2 bags worth in the machine, so if you load it up and go to screed, you will have to make sure you check on the machine fairly often to make sure yo don't run out of concrete and start dumping water into your form. Pouring goes a heck of a lot faster than with a drum mixer and having two people would be optimal. Don't turn it off when the hopper is full, maybe it was a fluke, but i turned it off while there was a bag of concrete in the hopper and it jammed and tripped the breaker. How level the machine sits affects the concrete slump for some reason, so to get a consistent pour, keep the machine at the same level.

The machine is fine. The packaging needs to be improved. The item had apparently been dropped on its side and the discharge chute was slightly bent at the end. There is almost no protection for the item on that side.

I won't buy any other kind of mixer, works great!

The electronic solenoid valve that opens the water to spray while the machine is in forward failed. It was so hot you couldnt touch it, and would trip the relay constantly. Replaced with a ball valve.

This thing Is small enough, light and had a shape that is easy to load in the back of my small ranchero.Because the mixing happens only down in the shaft and auger area the cleanup is less than 3 minutes. So you can stop and start a project easily with little material lost.It's one of those things that if you don't have it you just won't do the project or put it off, but with this it's so fast the project is reasonable and possible in one day.

Used it so far to pour over 4 1/2 yards of concrete. One of the tips did clog at one point and was an easy fix by just blowing some compressed air through it. I needed up ordering another set to have on hand. Other than that it has worked flawlessly.
