R230DCT

Highly recommended. An absolute bargain price, sturdy, compact size, light weight, blade extremely sharp. Made mincemeat of dozens of paving blocks with no effort at all. Very easy to setup and install the, included, durable blade. Recommended

Absolute great bit of kit! I’m a DIY novice but I’ve decided to take on the task of doing my front garden and drive and I needed to take up the concrete path. I’m a 40 mum of 3 just giving things a go. I was worried about the blade wearing out but it did the whole job no problem. I didn’t get a bag for dust collection but wish I had now, but that’s no detriment to the tool. I did 2 cuts which took about 15 mins across the path, then left it for 10 minutes or so as I didn’t want to burn it out, it was fine. I wet the path beforehand and also in between cuts. It only took a couple of hours to make light work of the path. It wasn’t too heavy and I felt confident once I got the hang of it. I tried to add a video but sadly it wouldn’t upload.

Bought this on a January deal to cut thick, old concrete containing lots af hard pebbles clear of the walls of my house, to dig clear of the DPC. At the price it didn't make sense hiring one. Amazed with this cutter, which came with a diamond disc as well. It cut all my concrete absolutely no problem, some parts were about a brick thick. I even expected to maybe have to buy another disc to finish the job but no, it did the lot and there's still life in it. It's a powerful cutter, nicely balanced, not too heavy and easy to use. Saved me an absolute fortune in doing this job myself. Highly recommended, great tool.

Perfect. Size perfect all good. Quality as described. Year in and still runs well. I use it with my power bank 2.2kW brilliant, hard working all day.

It does what it says, my only detractions are, the nozzle to attach a hoover is too small for a standard hoover so needs an adaptor or tape, seems an un-necessary issue. The weight makes it hard to hold for long but I guess that is the downside of it being a good machine

This is a fantastic tool for cutting through breeze blocks and other block work including concrete and stone blocks. It's particularly useful when you need to make a tidy and quick cut. I was previously using smaller angle grinders and circular saws with diamond blades or a simple hammer and chisel. I was able to cut through blocks for building work, but it took time and effort due to limited power, limited cutting depths and the sheer density of blocks being used. In the case of the lump hammer and chisel it was a lot of effort and time trying to split blocks accurately and wasn't a great option when precision was required. Despite this, I did question the value of buying a disc cutter and wasn't sure how much time it would save. Since buying it my doubts have been blown away. It cuts through even dense concrete blocks and stone blockwork without hesitation. It's also really easy to control and make accurate cuts and I don't find it heavy or cumbersome. Having made several hundred cuts through 215mm x 100mm stone blocks and breeze blocks I dread to think how much longer I would have been stood there without this tool. It also has a handy wheeled rest to place it down on and this combined with the disk brake means you can put it down as soon as you've finished your cut. The cuts have also been beautifully clean, so there's no excuse for a sloppy finish. I normally stick to Makita tools and wasn't sure about trying something from Evolution. So far, despite being well used I'm still on the original diamond blade and touch wood haven't had to replace the brushes. If it continues to work like this it has been a great value purchase.

Fantastic just replaced my petrol cutter, great build quality and sturdy love it

Purchased when on sale, great value. Purchased for a DIY patio project, feels very powerful and cut through 50mm slabs with ease. Don’t try and force quickly just guide the blade and let it roll on it’s wheels.
