Looking at buying a new washboy as mines seen better days. I got the karl dahm washboy and find a fair bit or water leaks over the sides when rolling but this sigma looks the nuts. Anyone got any reviews on it

I have 3 Siri ones. Robust and well put together. Older one has smooth rollers and no handle. Newer ones like the pic have 3 ridged rollers and a carrying handle. Actually went looking for a sigma but couldn't get one so came away with one of these. Comes with a float too lol. The sigma should be decent but I've no regrets over my Siri(s)

Mine are £25 from the market and surprisingly robust with good quality rollers. :hurray: Have two market stall ones that have been through the wars and still great. Bought another one that cost 50 quid which flexed when filled and split a month later.

Or you could try this one , it looks solid ! Ceramic Tiling Tools, Raimondi Tools UK & Ireland

Ordered some floats & spacers from them this week. Top quality gear,Raimondi. Have earmarked that one as the next purchase.... If I need to replace.

Plenty of choice. There's a lot of similar looking gear around but not of the same quality. Interesting but it makes sense in Peters case,If you look after something, even a cheap thing it will last a long time.

Looked at the Raimondi before & just watched the video, looks a good bit of kit.
My Karl Dahm is still going strong but good to know what else is out there.

I have the ramondi skipper washboy and the Karl dahm one , but mainly use the Karl dahm as , unless your carrying wAter in the skipper the handle keeps coming off which is a real pain !!!
