Mud MixerMMXR-3221 Heavy Duty Portable Multi Use Mixer

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

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.

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.

This thing is amazing! Perfect for the smaller/big concrete jobs! The bag opener at the top alone is a life saver! This has already made my husband and I life so much easier of a couple of jobs! It's easy to clean up at the end of the job, it mixes as quick as you can grab a bad of concrete. This is a must if your blue collar worker! It doesn't weigh a ton, easy to move around. All and all it's a great performing piece of equipment! Well worth the money!

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.

I am 60+ years old. I don't have the strength to lift 60 lb bags into a mixer, and cleaning a traditonal mixer is a PITA. Look at all the rental mixers's barrels with all the sledge hammer marks getting old cement off the mixer. And lifting and cutting bags of cement into a mixer, getting the right amount of water, let it spin for three minutes and then dump it into a wheel barrel. That is time consuming. Now it's the prep work that takes the majority of the time. I do have the extender, but I used it without the first time. Yeah, I'm a bit sore, but I got a 36 footer done. It was pretty simple and the mixer cleans up in 5 minutes when you are done. Doing a pour is no longer a daunting task!
