Very. I’ve nothing to compare them to, but in it’s own right it’s a great job.

I know Parkside gets looked down upon but apart from the rubbish sand blaster the rest of the stuff is decent, and I’m a Makita snob lol

It is decent stuff.
I am just too far down the dewalt cordless road to bother to buy any of it.
Bought a Parkside kango for £40 years ago and it done a serious amount of work before my horse of an uncle burnt it out with about 4hrs solid breaking!

This weeks DIY stuff - anyone used the drill? Not that I need to be spending £60 on a parkside drill but I already know what I’m like 😂

I have the drill and it's probably the weakest out of the parkside 20v line up. The chuck is flimsy and wibble wobbles and it often needs a couple of dabs on the trigger to get going. It was stupidly cheap though so I'm OK with it in the workshop for part time use. Have a bosch professional at home which is quite a bit better and would be better suited to more regular use.

I've had the drill for nearly 3 years and still going strong. Sometimes the chuck doesn't grip really small drill bits, but it looks like the newer ones have a metal check now whereas mine is plastic.

The Bench grinder looks handy enough for £20!
Flicked on through earlier and the bike stuff is back in on the 8th iirc - bike workstands etc

Those work trousers look right up my alley. A very bootcut/flared, I’m heading to Robinson’s 2003 vibe.
