Hello all,

Does anyone use a cordless grinder? If you which one and what’s your views on it?
Considering buying one but the dewalt one is £200 with no battery’s, which are £140 for one and a charger.

Any advice would be great or opinions would be great thanks

Have a look at the Bosch blue range, I started with the drill driver with 2 4amp batteries for 150 then bought the grinder bare for 90 then got the multi tool for 150 all from screwfix then bought 3 5amp batteries on eBay

Corded ones are balanced better, have a look at the Metabo grinder as this has a swivelling battery that can be turned to help with balance depending on the angle of your cutting/grinding. Not cheap mind you.

It’s something I have considered but, i can see it encouraging me to just make that little cut, without a mask, indoors, etc.

Av still got my old Bosch 14.4v cordless , replaced batteries a few times over the years , had it for 15 years.......you can still get it occasionally on e bay.... Great for dressing & small checks etc, even the odd kitchen splash, always handy to have one as a secondary grinder,

Hilti is by far the best cordless grinder that i've used. They are very expensive but just as good as a corded one. I had one rented for 3 yrs and i never used a corded grinder while i had it and i never had any problem whatsoever within the 3yrs, I didnt even have to replace the brushes as it was a brushless model. I've burned out 2 makita cordless in the past 2yrs but luckily screwfix replaced them free of charge...... When my present cordless Makita burns out I'll defnitely go back to Hilti......

Imo no cordless is as good as a corded. The best tools about are Hilti, again imo. Dewalt just haven’t considered tilers in their design of their cordless grinder, they’re so badly designed for us I wouldn’t want one for free. The best cordless grinder that lasts for bearable money is Metabo. The only one better is the Hilti, but you have to be prepared to pay big for them. All the corded grinders that I use day to day are Hilti.
