Rank #5 in Best Cement Mixer 2026: 8 Ranked, Drum Size vs Real Mix Capacity
120L Electric Cement Mixer, 450W, with Stand and Wheels
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The 120L Electric Cement Mixer (model PM0218) is a 450W wheeled machine priced at £239.99, fifth in our guide to cement mixers. It runs on 230V at 30 RPM and the listing sells it for concrete, stucco, seeds and fodder, so the agricultural uses are stated rather than implied. It weighs 41kg and measures 111 x 70 x 117 cm assembled, with two wheels and rubber-covered auxiliary handles for moving it around.
Its own numbers are the interesting part. The drum is quoted at 120L, with a recommended maximum working load of 90%, which would be about 108 litres. But the same listing gives the drum as 35 cm across and 55 cm deep, and the largest cylinder those dimensions could contain is roughly 53 litres - less than half the headline figure. (A real mixer drum is not a full cylinder, so the usable figure would be lower still.) The spec table also carries a 'Guaranteed software updates until: unknown' field, which tells you nothing about a cement mixer. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing and its customer reviews, not from any testing we have carried out.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Excellent value for money. I'd describe myself as almost competent in most DIY tasks, and after reading some reviews of this, was slightly worried about assembling this, but actually found it pretty simple, taking me less than 2 hours. Most of that was trying to fit wheels, the locking pins are quite fiddly. Also was glad I'd read reviews first, as I probably wouldn't have thought to put seal between the 2 halves of the bucket (not mentioned in instructions).Instructions also mentioned using leather washers when attaching the blades - but none were supplied. I just used some metal ones i had, and they do the job, no leaking.Have used the mixer for making a concrete bed for garden wall, and worked perfectly well.Drum is quite small, I did overload the first mix, but adjusted after that and all good.Would definitely recommend for small DIY jobs.”
Verified purchase“It's easy to put together the only problem you can't get a wheelbarrow under it to get cement out i had to make a platform to put it on but besides that its great”
