evening folks, looking for recommendations for a 240v wall chaser and extraction system.

id rather pay for quality to take the pain out of chasing and tidying up, ideally comment on chasers you actually use yourselves.

much appreciated Shane

Metabo is a great piece of kit.

which model? expensive purchase so want to get it right! looked at 35 lt extractor with a 40mm chaser £800 best price so far

If you are in this for the long haul and want to use it day in day out then Metabo

if it’s just for occasional usage I bought a second had sparky wall chaser and it’s ok for small jobs

Yup. Just bought the same kit. Make sure you get the triple blade, you don't even have to break out the middle of the channel. Check YouTube there are some good videos of it in action.

Metabo with the 3 blades! 20mm oval conduit fits perfectly in the chase.

I have the MFE30 but that’s been replaced by the MFE40 now. I’d be going for that with the triple blade - which seems to have good reviews here.

A good dust extraction unit is just as important.

I only have the L class vac but it’s perfect for what i do, couldn’t justify the cost of the M

I have an old sparky twin disc attached to a Henry with electrical tape

been meaning to upgrade it for about 5 years but while it works can’t part with it
