Erbauer at Screwfix - who males em?

[Bluekingfisher]

Does anyone know who makes the Erbauer range of tools sold at Screwfix?

I have a couple of drill/drivers which have taken a power of abuse over the years and still going strong, so was wondering if they are built from parts from higher spec power tools.

Cheers
David

Ah, that's interesting but I have to say mine have been faultless!

I took a punt on a 2nd-hand erbauer SCMS. Whilst it's only had hobby use, I can't fault it. Would buy the brand again.

I've got an Erbauer Demolition saw and a SDS Drill both have had endless abuse both still going strong. I'd say they excellent value for money.

I've just recently bought an Erbauer £99 router - seems very cheap but lots of reviews saying how good it is for the money, hope I'm able to say the same in 12 months time.

I buy the erbauer scms blades - they are first class

Good to know. I hope they keep the standard the same it would be a shame to lose such an "economic" tool.

That said, I did buy the 1/2 " router, which was on sale for £69, I think. At that price I thought it worth a punt. I sold it on without using it, but I agree, it did look cheap and brittle, can't say how it performed though.
