I don’t peel spuds, just give them a good stiff brush. I like the skin.
Our French friends are definitely peelers.
And I really love my Parkside robot mower, purchased 3 years ago.
Had to put a new battery in last week.
It’s a real time saver.

See what you did there :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

I bought a Parkside angle grinder online recently from Lidl. It came with only one battery which is a bit of bugger when you have a lot of pavers to grind down; They always have replacement batteries in the local store but not the powerful one for this tool which costs around €70 to buy on its own, its actually cheaper. to buy another charger with a battery but I don’t want loads of bits hanging around because I think we will burn this one out with all the work to still be done. Parkside is good, believe it is Black and Decker manufactured and better than the BD Titan range I had before

I whipped my angle grinder out the other day to cut bits off of the barbecue, to ease it’s journey to the déchèterie, only to discover that it no longer had a power button, so I’m in the market for a new one.

Nope, it’s usually Einhell. Hence why spares are found on the Einhell website. More recently they have been Kompernass or Grizzly.

R U sure it’s Einhell? I have both and the batteries aren’t interchangable.
Not that there is any certainty they would be, of course, but they SHOULD be. Imagine if EVERY gadget, from a simple torch onwards, needed different batteries. Nightmare.

It was more common a few years ago but as I stated two other companies are now more usual.
