Wall chaser and hoover recomendations

bigspark17 · Sep 27, 2021

Looking at purchasing a wall chaser and hoover set and wondered what brands were being used with members and if you were happy with the kit.

happy to buy good quality
would prefer a bagless hoover if this is an option
would like blades that last and dont cost the earth to replace

Thanks

110% the Metabo wall chaser with the triple disc blade cutter, removes the whole width of the chase in one go.

Coupled with the Metabo dust extractor, which comes on automatically when you operate the wall chaser. It also has a self cleaning device built in, for when the filters get clogged with dust.

Several videos of it in action on YouTube.

I second the above. I have same as @LukeD. Good price and good on the dust collection. Got through many a chase no problem. Usually most victorian and 30s houses have really soft plaster so no problems with blade longevity.

Great well sounds like thats the weapon of choice. Where did you purchase this? Got any links?

I use 2 "hoovers" . A nilfisk as a site hoover etc and a festool for dust extraction when using wood tools etc . If I had to keep one it would always be the Nilfisk .

Metabo (I have older 2x disc) + My Prince Charles or Henry (with a shake of the cylinder per 2-3x chases)

Plenty of places to buy it.
Just type metabo mfe40 into Google. The triple disc cutter is fantastic. You may well have to buy this separately. It takes out the chase as well which is automatically sucked up by the vacuum machine. I use the nilfisk vacuum which seems fine to me, much cheaper than the metabo vacuum. However, I have never used the metabo vacuum so perhaps it may be even better.

The metabo triple blade chaser and metabo vacuum has arrived and awaiting its first run out. .)

As these days most of My wiring ends-up owerboarded I find Arebos chaser more then sufficient (even on a yourkshire brick), as they are not officialy sold for UK market you will have to change the plug from European. But you cant beat Henry on hovering. While there might be a fancier mashines henry will take whatever you throw at it (including being hit by hammers, lebourers) and can be sit on when eating lunch. The only negative is that I have not seen it in 110V (still looking). You can pick them up in charity shops for a tenner.
