5.0 out of 5 stars It's lightweight but does the job!
Yes it's lightweight but I'm not sure I could easily move around a commercial machine of 60kg. This is heavy enough for domestic use. I bedded down a ton of MOT type1 with it yes you'll need to go over it a few more times but it did the job. So that's one patio down now a bigger one next and I'm confident this machine will do the job. It does help to have someone else there moving the cable around for you. Also get some anti vibration gloves as it does feed a lot of vibrationd up the handle. Cable management is rubbish, wind up the long cable and there's nowhere to hang it on the machine, I'm using a couple of garden ties. Otherwise it's difficult to fault for the money.
4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good - Not Without Problems
Okay, this is a five star tool because it's well priced and is in a very small category of one when it comes to electric whacker plates but dropped A Star for a less than perfect handle. It is specifically aimed at the home gamer who is perhaps more enthusiastic than most when it comes to DIY and garden projects not the professional (or in my experience mostly unprofessional) builder.So my review is based entirely on the fact that this is ideal for home use and the price is far less than a reasonable quality fuel powered machine.So, firstly the really good thing. It's electric. And that means a couple of things. In use it's fairly quiet and that counts if you are doing work in your garden over the weekend and don't want to drive your neighbours nuts. Secondly, you don't have to mess around with petrol and lube oil which, inevitably means a cleaner and quicker job.The tool itself does a really good job of flattening sand and other aggregates. In fact, just as good as a half reasonable petrol one which, I was quite surprised about. I had fully expected this to take a much longer to do what I've done before having done a garage build when I borrowed a mates petrol machine to flatten down the hoggin base.The cable is robust and plenty long enough to reach most areas in a moderate sized garden or drive. No problems there.I also noted that in the review section one of the 'Star ratings' was for 'Lightweight' which, is a bit dumb. It isn't meant to be light because it's a whacker and that needs some heft. And by gum, it is pretty weighty. So if you are blessed with arms like Olive Oil then best you prepare yourself....Now, the bad - which I've seen other comments on. The handle is assembled using knobs so that you can disassemble for storage or transport. All well and good but....it's a whacker and therefore vibrates like a ladies bedroom toy on acid. And that means the handle knobs unscrew and fall out. You can tell when they start to slacken off immediately because the vibration in the handle increases dramatically. Given the design there is no way you can stop this because the rounded hollow bars that have the knurled knob tighten against will never allow enough friction to hold anything tight.This would be a problem but to be honest having spent my life on ships, building them and in the offshore oil construction industry and having been pre-warned by other reviews I figured I could MacGyver it some how. If you are not happy with mechanical tools and don't want to have to do a little home work on this, then I could imagine this whacker ending up on EBay quickly...Overall, this is a great bit of kit that works well. However, the handle falling apart will need to be dealt with and if you are not able to do this or don't feel inclined then it will be less than an ideal choice for you.
5.0 out of 5 stars If it's a small but drawn out job you have planned, don't rent - buy the electro
Like many reviewers I was still somewhat dubious about buying the Electro before buying. I have a small oddly shaped area in my garden where I intend to lay artificial turf so needed to lay a four inch layer of MOT before I sand and place down the turf. The Electro is just about light enough to be carried or moved to the area you want to compact but just about heavy enough to be very effective. Easy to assemble and I understand that a special 'Pavier' attachment is available for block pavier use. I laid the MOT in several days, laying an inch down each day, compacting and then laying another inch on top, etc. I am incredibly impressed with the Electro - it's done me proud so far. I didn't encounter excessive vibration in the handle when using it. I have scored five for manoeuvrability because on the larger internal area of my MOT lay it was very easy to manoeuvre - not so good on the edges and corners, where I found myself having to pick it up and reverse direction. I have another small area in the garden that will need a sub-base and I shall use the Electro again for that. I worked out it was cheaper and easier than renting. When I have finished I shall place it up for sale on eBay or the local town social media website for £100 ono and it will have only cost me just over £100 to do the compacting. Nice bit of kit and I would strongly recommend for amateur DIYers or those with small projects.
5.0 out of 5 stars Did the job
It was cheaper to buy this as the time required to hire wouldn't have been cost effective. Very easy to use once you get used to the movement the speed was adequate and a perfect size for the job. Excellent quality and well worth the outlay.
3.0 out of 5 stars Great to compact sand/soil - and not much else
I got this to compact the soil in an area I had cleared - about 8m square. It managed this without much of a problem, but the subbase I put down it struggled with. Shale for a path also causes it problems. It has quite a soft impact force - certainly compared to petrol ones (about half the force it seems). I've recently had to strip it down due to it failing. When in use it just stopped (okay it is 5 years since I've bought it but it has lived for quite some time un-used in the shed so has probably only 10 hours use).The power switch inside had started to fall apart so that the live power lead wasn't staying in - which I've swapped out. It also has a short between the live and neutral - so I'm in the process of changing the capacitor to see if that helps. If its not that then the motor has in someway failed inside - not an easy thing to strip down or even to repair. It might mean that it has to go in the bin as un-repairable. If I were to buy a compactor plate now, given the price and the low impact force, I'd be tempted by the Aldi Scheppach petrol one as its very close on price but twice the impact force. So in summary, its good for light soil and sand, but I'd say not much more than that. Depends what you want to use it for really.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great product at a good price.
This product worked very well. We compacted hard core for a. base
4.0 out of 5 stars Good compactor
For this price is quite good. Did the job for me , e,cement for DIY work.
1.0 out of 5 stars Vibrates you more than the ground
Way too much vibration through the handle to be safe. Doesn't do a great job on compaction either.
Pour damage des pavés
S'adapte parfaitement à la machine Evolution Power Tools électrique.Pavés parfaitement damés et tassés.
Impressionnant
Vraiment pratique cette petite dameuse,prends très peu de place et fais largement le job, sur les grosses épaisseurs plusieurs passages seront nécessaires en tout cas je ne regrette pas cet achat servi pour damer une terrasse ensuite un terrain de pétanque puis prêter au voisin qui a fait tout le devant de sa maison et le côté j'ai dû fabriquer un support caoutchouc pour le damage des pavés autobloquants et cela fait plus de 2 ans que je la possède et j'en suis très content.
ideal für Pflasterarbeiten
Ich besitze das neue Modell der Elektro-Rüttelplatte von Evolution, die ich überwiegend für Pflasterarbeiten nutze.Daher musste natürlich auch diese Gummimatte gekauft werden.Optisch und qualitativ macht sie einen guten Eindruck und mit dem passenden Werkzeug ist die Gummimatte auch verhältnismäßig schnell angebracht. Ohne eine helfende Hand ist es allerdings etwas anstrengend.Man muss darauf achten, dass der vordere Teil der Rüttelplatte bündig in dieser Lasche der Gummimatte sitzt. Ich habe die Matte dafür auf den Boden gelegt, die Rüttelplatte mittig darauf gestellt, dann die Platte ein Stück nach vorn gekippt und vorsichtig in die Lasche gleiten lassen. Dann kann man die Rüttelplatte wieder absetzen und alles hinten an der Platte verschrauben.Bei mir sitz die Gummimatte bombenfest und verrutscht beim Arbeiten auch nicht.Für Pflasterarbeiten ist sie das ideale Zubehör und ich kann sie jedem empfehlen.
Tut was es soll und ist dabei leise
Da mir das Bodenverdichten mit dem Handstampfer zu mühsam war, habe ich mich nach gut 2 Jahren Überlegung entschieden eine Rüttelplatte zu kaufen und bereue meine Entscheidung nicht.Kam schnell und gut verpackt an, Zusammenbau war einfach und schnell und von der Länge des Kabels bin ich begeistern. Damit hat man mehr als genug Spielraum beim Arbeiten.Die Rüttelplatte lässt sich einfach steuern, verdichtet für meine Zwecke ausreichend und ist dabei sehr leise.Abgesehen von der einfacheren Handhabung und dem angenehmeren Geräuschpegel ist sie preislich auch um einiges billiger als benzinbetriebene Rüttelplatten.Bin sehr zufrieden damit und die Arbeit geht nun leichter als mit dem Handstampfer.
Pratique pour petit travaux
100m2 de tout venant avec l'appareil...Fonctionne très bien,Très peu de bruit,,Cable assez long,Poignet ergonomique,Bon résultat
