The right tool will depend on the kind of applications you intend to dig into, whether it is mixing light paint or dense mortar. Below we explore plaster mixer characteristics that you ought to pay attention to when choosing the best paddle mixer. Power Some of the applications that you can use the Mega Mixer for include mortars and epoxy, paints and heavy-bodied coatings, floor screed, latex and coatings, render and external wall insulation, just to mention a few.

Pros When choosing the best paddle mixer you should consider the power, speed and comfort of the item, particularly if it is required for regular use. Selecting the Right Power

You will also come across models with either a single or two handles. The choice is yours but double-handled mixers provide great stability and enhance precision mixing. This is really a personal choice though. The handle is easy to work and the trigger is simple to use to turn it on and off. Variable speed control is obviously something you want in your line of work too. We feel that this model will not really produce as much power as you’d expect from a 1800w mixer. Bosch are pretty consistent when it comes to churning out quality tools, and their GRW 18-2 E Professional Paddle Mixer is no exception. There are no surprises – it works as you would expect, efficiently mixing mortar, paint, plaster and other viscous materials. The repair or replacement of your machine (at Evolution’s discretion), if your machine is found to be defective due to faulty materials, workmanship or function within the warranty period (if any part is no longer available or out of manufacture, Evolution will replace it with a functional replacement part). For home DIY jobs, like mixing plaster, paint, and cement, low-powered machines with around 850W of power are a suitable choice. These will generally be more affordable than mixers with a higher motor. If you want to mix higher-viscosity liquids, like glue, look for a motor of at least 1600W.Powered by a 1600 W motor, it’s a corded model with 140 mm paddles and is ideal for mid-viscosity liquids like glue, paint, plaster and mortar. Evolution Power Tools reserves the right to optionally repair or replace it with the same or equivalent item. A high-quality mixer featuring a variable speed control to suit all materials, from 250 - 750min -1. Smoothly mixes to perfection, every time. The R120MXR-Li Cordless Paddle Mixer is designed for the trade. Lightweight, powerful, and with long run times from a single charge it's the ideal choice for anyone looking for a capable Paddle Mixer for all their paint, plaster, adhesive and aggregate mixing needs.

Many smaller mixers have less substantial handles, and normally require hands to be positioned at differing angles to each other. As long as the machine is sufficiently light, this should still be comfortable. Plus, with smaller machines you are unlikely to be holding them for as long, as they will be used for smaller jobs. For this reason, it’s one of the best paddle mixers for doing occasional DIY – especially when you don’t want to spend a lot on new tools – but it shouldn’t be relied upon for heavy-duty, professional-level jobs. We really like the two-handled design, really ergonomic and fits comfortably in your hands. The spacing between your hands is good enough for you to maintain the correct posture as you mix and it should be about right for most people. The grip area is soft and dotted in a way that enhances maximum comfort. As you would expect, the tool comes with a 120mm mixing paddle that is easy to attach using a supplied wrench. Portable and powerful the Evolution R120MXR-Li Cordless Mixer leaves other mixers in the dust. With a high-torque DC motor, Li-ion battery power, forced air cooling and a soft-start motor controller it’s designed to run and run, mix after mix. Supplied with a 120mm Up-Mix Multi-Finish compatible paddle the Evolution Cordless Mixer is compatible with any M14 threaded paddle up to 140mm and will blend its way through plaster, paint, mortar, cement, epoxy, tile & dry wall adhesive, Artex, and much more.

A paddle with a mixing capacity of around 25kg will be suitable for most small/medium jobs . In a professional capacity, this may need to be doubled, depending on the quantities you need to mix. In any case, the tool is not heavy and you shouldn’t have any fatigue issues whilst mixing. It has some impressive figures in terms of mixing capacity and efficiency. Furthermore, this works with interchangeable paddles, which guarantees much more flexibility.
