You definitely are one of the realest KZfaqrs. Always enjoy the videos man.

Thanks for the thorough run down on this new machine. I plan to rent one ($100 a day where I live) for a job I'm doing. I wanted to see what I was getting into before I rented it. Great video!

Thanks for doing this video. Very well presented and answered the questions most DIYers would have about it.

I came across the mud mixer a few weeks ago and am really impressed!! I own 4 acres and have a lot of 'projects' [things I want to do] around the house /yard that I want to do. The only thing that held me back was that I didn't want to deal with concrete because of the CO$T and messiness [and confidence to do a good job]!! But THIS is definitely a game changer! I think that the cost of a mud mixer overall will pay itself off after a few projects since I won't have to contract the work out. Just get a finisher while I build my skills and then do jobs by myself eventually. Your videos have helped me out a lot and was the determining factor for me to get one in the coming months!! Thanks! Keep doing what you do!!

Thanks for the video. I put a good 20 yards through one of those tumbler ones before the barrel fell off. Was just about ready to buy another one to cement the barn floor in February. Just called our rental place. $113 per day $361 per week for the Mud mixer. Well worth giving it ago. Never buying a tumbler again.

The MudMixer would be great, I can think of a number of projects I would do if I had one. What I have instead is an old Harbor Freight mixer similar to the one James has in this video. It's what I have so I use it. Rather than try and empty a bag of concrete into it I empty a couple of 80 pound bags into a wheelbarrow, put some water into the mixer and then I use a shovel to put concrete into the mixer. At 60 years old this loading system works well for me.

I’m excited! I just ordered mine. Thanks for the review it has helped a bunch!

Thank you. I had the same problem with the auger on my Traeger. They were great as well. You sold me.

I bought a mud mixer because of your video’s in March and I love it only problem I had was the switch which I called them and they sent me a new one and one of the welds on the axle where the tires connect broke other than that it’s been perfect. and yes I bought the extra hopper

That was a really well done video thanks. When you mentioned the second Mud Mixer that's the first time I've ever heard Mo say no for anything for you.

Whenever possible I’d have my tractor with a pallet of concrete sitting right next to it so I could lift them all up to where you just slide a bag over and drop it in on the splitter.

Thanks for the thorough review! I've been on the fence about this purchase as I do such a variety of projects it's something I Will probably only use a few times a year. Decided to pull the trigger and order it this afternoon!

Funny, we have the same body, a working man! I've passed my prime, spent 40 years running my swimming pool business. I've moved on into industrial maintenance. My son is mid 30s, and is a 3rd gen pool builder. I'm impressed with your review!

Great review. Thanks for covering this mixer. Enjoyed a full-watch. 👍🏽🤠 5/17/23

I’m looking to get a Mud Mixer soon. Thanks for the video & review!

I just got one today! I’m in the chimney repair business, we pour 50+ crowns a year, this is going to be a game changer.

It's great to hear about their awesome customer service. My husband is getting one. Hopefully, it'll be here in the next week or two. We're so excited.

Great review. Thank you for sharing these gems.

Okay I was on the fence, but hearing your customer service story sold me. Just ordered, mine. Love companies that put their money where their mouth is. Makes a huge difference when your spending hard earned money on expensive items. Thanks bro.

I work for a national rental company and we recently started carrying these. That was an awesome review. I may try to use one of these to pour my piers for a new small house I’m hoping to start building soon. Thanks!

I noticed a minor problem another reviewer had with the Mud Mixer was to make sure the Mixer is leaning forward or at least level (not leaning backwards). The concrete didn't want to push out as easy when leaning back. If they added a screw jack similar to a trailer tongue jack would be nice.

Enjoyed your video. I’ve had mine since June and have poured about 10-12 yards in my barn floor. Mud Mixer has been great with their support. The only real issue I’ve seen have been more witb the Sakrete than the mixer. Inconsistency in the aggregate size is a pain, it binds a little off and on and then Home peepot sent me a pallet of old concrete that had set up and is all clumpy. It won’t run for nothing. I guess I could screen it, but too much work. Overall I am very satisfied too. I’m planning the last 8-10 yards over the Christmas holidays so I may reach out to them about a spare auger and shear pin or two. I’d hate to order 12 pallets of concrete and have it tear up.

Bro! You have no idea. Thank you so much for this video. I subscribed and will be looking for more information and learning from your team.

Very informative and interesting. Well done as always!

Thanks for the review: I'm buying one for our fireplace and chimney restoration biz. We currently use an Imer Mortarman 120, great machine but heavy.

Yup I’ve used one of these before. Great product but if they could bring out an xl version that does 3 yards per hour or so it would open up a bunch of sales and scope of diy jobs. They would certainly get my money but og is a bit two small currently. I’ll keep an eye on the company though. Who knows, maybe they will read this…

I would love to see a follow up video of you doing a job with it. This was a great video!!

Cool to know they back it up, thanks!

Great video. You answered a lot of questions I had. Thank you. I'm a new sub

Great informative hands-on review 👍

Agree very nice looking unit, want a bigger one gas or diesel power

I looked at these before they were really on the market. I thought the price is a little expensive when towards a big poly mixer. I like the usefulness of the mudmixer for running curbs. The big mixer are consistent if you meter your water.

I think it is a great product for bag mix! I have two of the MQ Mix & Go just because I like to mix from scratch for my projects. You need two of the drum mixers to get any productivity.

I've had my mudmixer for 2 months. Mixed 3 pallets of 80lb crete so far doing home owner things. Some sort of metal screen in the hopper would be cool to have to filter out the chunkers. Every once in a while I would get chunkers from the bagged crete and get jammed in the auger.

When you said “I wish it was bigger” I believe that’s what she said!😅🤣

This was very informative vid, thank you for posting.

I’ve been begging for a mud mixer and the company just got one, no more mixing in a bobcat bucket 😂 I actually like mixing in the skid loader bucket but I feel like this will be a good machine. Definitely during this heat.

Saw this, always wanted to know if this was worth buying for our company. I appreciate your honest review

2 would be better than one bigger one just for the fact that if one went down, you would still have the other one running. You could also have them across from each other in some cases, like on each side of a sidewalk, when possible.

Great review and instructions

I've been considering pouring a 3.5 yard pad in my back yard for a Gazebo but because I don't have Truck access it makes mixing that much a tough job. This machine appears to make it a much easier job, but I couldn't justify it's purchase. Looking into rent it, it's only $97 per day at Rent-All. At a Year per Hour I'm looking at just 1 day of rent.

Excellent customer service is a huge selling point for me.

Good job, Morgan! 👍

This helped alot,ty! Subbed.

Buying one because of this video great "Free" advertisement for mud mixer

Thanks James I would like to see more video on the mixer. Film it filling in the trench for retaining wall etc. Good video James. I liked the mullet.

Really good stuff - interesting - thanks for sharing that 👍

Thanks for a good review.

I’m considering getting one, in Canada here it’s 5 grand by the time it gets to my door, so it’s a tough sell. Bigger would be better but unfortunately I don’t think a home owners water supply would be able to keep up with the demand unless it had some sort of plastic hopper up top that you could pre-fill to supplement the water supple from the house

Amazing video. Loved it ❤

Put a 1/4 metal screen in above the bottom grate . It’ll help avoid big chunks going into the auger .

Thanks for the rundown on the Mudmixer. Although comparing a $3500 machine to $400 machine, i should hope your prefer the former hahaha.

You should do a video review on these two mixers to mix one yard see which is faster. Then mix one yard with your crew 1-2 guys.

Hopefully you’ll see this. Bought one last week. Used it for the first time Thursday, worked great but had a learning curve. Will Probably be taking out the small patch job (2’x3’) because I was by myself and kept messing with the water mix. Anyway, have you had any issue with a sandy/wet mess leaking out of the shaft between motor and hopper? Had two big wet messes on a pool patio on each side that was pushing out cement & sand. I’ve emailed mud mixer but have not heard back yet

Years ago, i did a lot of fences and decks. That means a lot of fence posts and piers. The mud machine would have made life easier for sure.

JOHN GOTTI APPROVED

In my area they have a large version of this on a Mack truck.

Great video!

On the bigger one they should have an option for a conveyor belt that feeds the full bags into the hopper, where the operator just has to drag bags to the bottom of the mixer, conveyor belt lifts and dumps it in the hopper, operator removes empty bag.

Love the music 😮😮😮

Looks like a box sieve would sit on top of the hopper to screen out the over size aggregate. What ever the size would be to keep to the over size out. Down side would be you would have to cut open the bag before pouring through the sieve. Just a thought. Looks like a pretty cool machine.

Awesome thank you for sharing

I'm wondering how hard it would be to make one? I know how to weld and wonder if you could use a post hole auger in a metal tube (I like the top cut out assuming this is to aid the mix not getting stuck).

What's the largest agrigate size that you've used and what do you usually use for regular pours? Also, any problems with high strength fiberglass cement pours? Great video, informative, and thanks for sharing! Keep up the great work...

Really appreciate your awesome videos and reviews... what gauge is your power cord?

Definitely good to have.. Good review

nailed it m2j

I was wondering if you’ve ever used the redi mix concrete from Menards in it, their brand unlike Quickrete has small aggregate in it which I like over the fine powdery type like quickrete when I pour piers and foundations. The aggregate is like birdshot size pea stone and I’m just concerned it the augers would handle it. I figured I’d ask you before contacting mudmixer.

It looks so slow on their promo video. Good to hear that it works for real jobs, thanks!

Can you just put another hopper extension on top of the hopper extension?

I'd like to see one in action. I am assuming they have a conversion to get the slump you want. That's the correct terminology. I have used barrel mixers before and they work fine. Very consistent if using bags of concrete but a little difficult to move around in the pour.

The only edge I can see for the barrel mixer is if you add a bit more cement powder to the bags of ready mix. You can customize your mix. But ovérall I'm jealous of the contractors and guys doing their own pours that can afford the $3k price. I'm doing a sidewalk at my house and dang am I jealous of you guys lol.

Nice explanation of the mixer! What would be about the break even point for getting the MudMixer and doing a slab all DIY vs hiring a mixer truck and crew? I'm thinkin around 30' x 30'?

Love mine! Knuckle buster though

Super useful video. Thank you.

You mentioned an auger extension we definitely would love to see a video of that I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find it

Why wouldn't they just add a sub screen below the bag slicer? That way the rocks can't get into the machine to begin with....

I'm just a diy guy, and when I saw this machine a while back and all I thought was game changer. Can this replace a cement on a large poor like small backyard shop?

that is good in the states where you have redimix just add water but here we have add sand add grit or gravel to 90 lb bag cement so though I would love that, it will not work.. what I use now is a mixer that takes like one bag at a time, add sand and gravel..r

Hardly fair comparing a $3,000 tool to a $300 one. At least compare it to a 6cuft commercial-grade mixer. When pouring a slab, seems like it would be a nuisance waiting for the slow dribble of the mud mixer vs dropping 1/4 to 1/3 of a yard at a time.

I have the simple drum mixer that’s a kobalt…if it’s not your job…the drum is fine, it just takes more work

Have a metal fab shop make you an extended hopper, slightly taller and wider, it might block vision and be top heavy but would be good for flatwork

With using a long power cord from house to mixer. I'm thinking would a good generator that runs on propane be better. Many outside plugs on houses are only 15amps. The generator would also have a 20amp plug.

I'm curious, what diameter is the auger. Great Video !

Hydraulic driven, for your stand on skid steer, would be slick!

Good job - maybe Odell will pick one up.

Would a screen help to elevate any large rocks?

I sure like that machine, but I dont do enough concrete work to justify it currently. I sure wish rental houses would start offering these! What would you say the largest pour you could comfortably do with this would be? Also I was wondering how the new set of MT100 tracks are holding up.. any better than the first replacement set? Im at 310hrs on my originals and starting to look for replacements. Thanks!

I bought one used it on a footing it was amazing, 2nd job switch quit working, they sent me a new switch I installed it and put it away. Next job ready to go and the water would not flow in forward only flowed in reverse I tried switching wires around assuming I had wired the new switch wrong but still could not get it to work correctly, they sent me a wiring diagram ……. Unit is still not watering in forward, I put it away don’t know if I’ll ever attempt to use it again, it has caused a lot of problems by not working.

Great video, very informative. Wish i would have seen these before building my cellar. Have you ever operated the machine off of a generator?

Where are they located. I like this product and would like to become their distributor in Africa

Any idea what size generator it would take to power the mixer in remote locations?

Good Job! Thanks -

So is this only mixing when it is feeding the concrete out? Or can you stop feeding out the concrete but keep it mixing so it stays consistent, for when you need to pause and move to a new area that you might be working, that is on the other side of the property?

Using bagged premix here is way to expensive unless its only two or three fence post's, its up to $17 a bag whereas bag of cement is about $10 and a scoop of premixed sand/metal is $30 so 1/2m3 of concrete is like $70 compared to 50+ bags $600@$12 per bag bulk price. Looks like a great mixer though

Want bigger? Imagine a skid steer version. 😍

If you had a premeasured amount of water you added to the drum mixer each time per load, wouldn't that even out the consistency of the concrete you were getting from it?

Love your site. Found it looking for reviews on the Mud Mixer. Looks like the real deal & will be getting me one. Did you buy from a dealer or the company & were is the company located. Thanks for your great youtube channel.

My wife and I are getting one. We have an L28 Bobcat mini articulated, what are your thoughts of mounting this on a pallet type base, losing the wheels altogether, for better mobility around the project? The boom extension, etc. love your videos on this device.

How does it move around with 300 lbs of mix in it? High enough for a wheelbarrow? to do footings move it every 4'? Or move it? Carry and pre position 2 bags every lineal foot of footing? Looks like every rental yard should have one or two
