                  Buy a different mixing paddle.
                  Buy a mixing paddle. The one that it comes with is literally unusable. The threads just pull straight out. Frustrating to say the least.

                    Ridgid Paddle Mixer
                    Tile contractor here. Excellent mixer drill for thin set mortar. Gave this drill 4 stars only because the chuck key broke the first time i used it and despite contacting Ridgid for a replacement, nevar received a call back. Secondly, the button to operate the mixer in continuous mode is not very ergonomically friendly and not easily engaged so this could be improved. Other than that, excellent drill with lots if torque! Ill find a replacemet chuck key elsewhere.

                      The right tool for the job
                      Bought this to mix 60lb bags of Quikrete in 5 gallon buckets for some recent repairs in my slab. I should have bought this a long time ago! Mixed concrete with ease even when the mixture is thick. The adjustable speed is help to keep the drill running at the right speed for mixing while not spinning so fast as to sling concrete everywhere. The chuck uses a key for tightening just like a drill press. The key stores in a rubber holder on the cord. Great value!

                        Wrist Saver!
                        This mixer is a huge improvement over using a large corded drill! It's got plenty of torque, and the speed dial covers a nice range of speeds. The soft-start feature is a must-have. Even when mixing concrete, it stayed cool. The mixing paddle that comes with it is pretty cheap; the shaft unscrews into two pieces to fit in the box, and I'd imagine that joint is a weak spot that might break when mixing something thick, like concrete. I've been using a better paddle that cost about 15 bucks.

                          Industrial flooring contractor
                          We do industrial epoxy flooring. A few weeks ago we had a large product involving mixing large amounts of epoxy slurry(epoxy and sand). We have a rigid dual paddle mixer and stand, as well as a German made single paddle. The German machine was damaged while we were unloading, so we went to the local home depot to get one of these, hoping it would at least last through the job. Happy to report that it not only survived, but had no issues at all (the 2 piece paddle is crap and stripped out fast but the machine is great.) for the money its hard to beat. We have a trigger issue on the dual paddle mixer so we just hit a preset and it does the job. Again, for the money i would recommend both.

                            I bought this because of trying to mix a lot of mortar for tiles, I did not want to burn up my drill like I did before. This heavy duty paddle mixer works really good and I've had no problems using it. I highly recommend this product as its been a lifesaver for the work I need to do.

                            Compared to my old 1k rpm B&D 1/2in drill, this is a tremendous upgrade. This is the right tool for the job. I've mixed thinset and grout over the past two weekends, handled both easily. What a treat not to have to stand on my bucket to keep in place while mixing.

                            Do you know how you always hear people saying that "they don't make tools like they use to," well they still do, and this mixer is proof. If you are still mixing mortar, thinset or grout by hand or a drill, you need to upgrade to this beast of a mixer. First off, it is built like a tank. Thick stamped metal housing and Chuck. Everything on this mixer is built to last for years and years and years of heavy use. It's extremely comfrotable in the hands. It actually feels like a race car wheel in the hands, and the Polly carbon grip keeps it from sliding around in your hands, even when wet. The soft start is probably the best that I have ever used on a mixer. No worries about material flying all over the place as this starts nice and smooth every time. The variable speed adjustment on this mixer works perfectly, and is so easy to adjust as it is right next to the thumb. The auto lock button also saves your fingers from constantly having to hold down a trigger. This is a great safety feature! As for power, this mixer has more than enough to mix anything you need. I threw an entire 50lb mag of thin set and added 1.5 gallons of water, turned on the mixer, and it just went to town on it. No bogging down, no weird sounds, just pur power! I am extremely happy with this mixer, and love that they even included a heavy duty paddle with it. Just like every other Ridged tile tool, tgis is buikt to last, and if your a pro, you will absolutely love it!
