Which Bosch grinder for DIY - TilersForums.com

[dg-1984]

I have a few tiling jobs will be doing over next few months, just DIY but going to get a grinder and good blades.
I have other Bosch tools so was going to stick with them as I like the brand but also as I have the batteries and saw the cordless grinder.
The batteries I have are only 2ah one but wireless charging so between cuts grinder can sit on charger. Don't know if this would work ok or not, what do you think?
I also saw the Bosch variable and also just the cheaper grinder.
Is it worth paying extra or should I just go the cheaper one as it's only for DIY use?
Reason for the thoughts on the variable one was could be used for polishing edges or training slightly if needed.

Thanks.

in my opinion, the electric one is better.
bosch 7/115 or 7 / 115e are the best.
if you have to make holes in hard tiles, better at variable speed.
small hole high speed, big hole low speed.

Thanks for that, have found the variable one here on eBay for £83 roughly so that seems a decent price.
Will need to get good blades for it aswell.
Have read the Premtool turbo fastline blades are good for the money, here.

Yes the premtool blade is very good, been using one for last 6 months.
Speak with Sam @Pro Tiler Tools and he can sort you the Bosch 7-115e (variable speed) too.
The E only comes in 240v tho.

I prefer Dewalt not a lover of Bosch even though it's load speed is greater

Can’t fault Bosch personally. I’ve got a grinder that’s pushing 20 years old. Went through the old NiMH grinder and now lithium Bosch. Never skipped a beat.
