“Works fine, nice long lead. The thumbscrew holding the handle together worked loose and may need regular tightening. Avoiding the lead is a bit of a pain but as against that, no petrol to fill each time. Not as noisy as I thought it might be.”

“So far it’s works fine, what I have found out, if you run it with the handle only partly down, it as a tendency to jump up and down a bit, but if you pull it towards yourself but not pushing down to hard, it works absolutely fine, it will run up a incline of about 25 degrees, I would have loved to have seen a reversing switch on it, with any electric motor if the polarity is reversed, the motor will go in the opposite direction, I have not taken the cover off the motor yet, to see what is the setup is, but if it can be done I will do it myself, would be easier to use in tight corners. Other than that a fine bit of kit!”

“Most compactors would require two or more to lift/move or turn them on a small confined patch. One person can lift and turn this and it still does a good job. You just have to do a few more runs to make up for its lighter weight etc. Its ideal for DIY or a handy tool for small awkward jobs and only cost about the same as hiring a bigger one for a week. One problem The clamp for the rubber matt doesn't work very well and it keeps sliding off to the side and coming loose. I ended up making a strop so I could pull it tight against the carrying frame. That stopped it coming loose and held it in place at the same time but is a bit Heath-Robinson.”

“A really good piece of hardware, ideal for small projects not heavy enough for larger projects also pointless buying the paving pad as it is not fit for the job it’s supposed to be designed for, it keeps detaching away fr the late , so it’s a waste of money buying the paving pad”
