JCB 1700W
I needed this to break the concrete around a rotten fence post so I could fit a spur support. I managed to break through around 400mm depth of concrete reasonably easily. I found the machine heavy in use but the handle arrangements were good. bear in mind I am in my late 70’s and not from a construction background.
Unlike other reviewers my outer plastic case arrived unbroken although there was some slight damage to the outer cardboard box. I found the outer box difficult to handle as it has a glossy finish and no hand holds for picking up. A couple of binding straps around the package would have been a help.
I have docked a star from the overall rating as the instruction booklet is poor. There is an oil filler cap shown on the illustration but nowhere in the manual is the correct oil to use mentioned. Also the manual states the unit must be returned to a service centre for the motor brushes to be changed, yet two replacement brushes are included in the packaging!
Overall I am pleased with the product. It will not be subject to heavy use but has a three year warranty anyway.
I was a little sceptical about buying this as it’s really hard to find any reviews.
I have always used a sds drill to dig out fence post at work, and decided to upgrade, I’m glad I did as this broker will pay for itself in no time .
I can’t judge it against any other breaker ,as this is my first, but If you are thinking of making the jump from a sds drill then absolutely recommended and it has 3 years guarantee.
More powerful than expected solid build broke concrete pad up in no time seems like will stand test of time.
