      Lots of plastic , broke down after 30 seconds of motor running

      Got one from ALDI. Used once. Wouldn't recommend it at all. Don't even try using it on kitchen knives. Spend money on better things :).

      • +3

        I use mine on drill bits and it works a treat. No way I'm putting my knives near it but to put more life on drill bits it done really well!

      • Since when does Aldi sell Ozito products?

        • +1

          The Aldi equivalent I imagine

        • The Aldi one looks identical to this one, all from the same Chinese manufacturer no doubt

  • Aldi have their coming out shortly.

        That's what you say to Mrs Wongingtons most days isn't it?

      don't use it for anything, but drill bits

      • Agree, for drill bits its good

    • Get the IKEA knife sharpener.

      Just get those cheap diamond coated sharpening stones from Amazon. They’re amazing for the price.

    • +1

      Try the Furi Diamond fingers sharpener for just $27 from Amazon. Dead easy to use and works really well, mine are over 10 years old and while not as good as a whetstone sharpen its a lot cheaper, easier and quicker.

  • +1

    Reviews are bad.

  • +1

    I think these are good to put a new edge on knives etc. Not to sharpen em.

  • -1

    Cheaper than a whetstone or honing stick.
    Will make your Kmart knives as sharp as a Global or perhaps your Global as sharp as a Kmart

      Maybe you can post that on NZBargain then…

  • Guys, would this thing be ok for sharpening lawn mower blades or should I look at something else? (please recommend, thank you)

    • +1

      You really want something that you can manoeuvre for mower blades, especially if they're mulching. If you have a Dremel or similar they sell a blade sharpening kit ($25ish, expensive for what it is), or you can get a Chinese knock off of the guides for a few dollars on Ali.

      If you don't have a Dremel there's this option which again uses the exact same guides, but I can't comment on how it goes at 3.6v. I've used these guides on an 18v rotary tool and it works pretty well on straight edges, shovels etc, the mulching blades I still just eyeball

      • Thanks mate! Don't have a Dremel but that other tool you linked looks like it'll get the job done, cheers!

        • Yeah forget sharpening mower blades on this thing, the wheel is about the size of the bottom of a beer can!

    • +1

      Get the replacement blades or there issues with balancing the blade and other safety issues. I think bunnings sells replacement blades as well.

        You can stick a nail in a wall and hang your blade on it to balance it

      Angle grinder. Whips them into shape in under a minute.

    Anyone else put off by bunnings since learning their profit margin is 16% on Four Corners and most of their products are cheap chinese home brands?

    • +4

      16% profit margin is uhh quite shite?

      • +1

        The only reason they can operate at that paltry margin is volume.

        All small businesses would be bankrupt in no time.

        Also motion2082, are you surprised? Where did you think most of Bunnings products come from? The tool section is just about the only place you'll find things made anywhere other than China.

      • Only when you have to work for it.

        16% passive return is pretty damn alright

      Which one of those was a mystery to you prior to the 4 Corners story? Bunnings is owned by Wesfarmers - as is Kmart, Officeworks, and Priceline. As a public company, they are required by law to maximise profit for shareholders, as are ALL public companies.

      31 Oct 2024 — Wesfarmers, which owns Kmart, Bunnings Warehouse, Officeworks and Priceline, announced a record $2.6 billion return after tax.

      I try not to shop at Bunnings largely because a lot of what they sell is cheap and poor quality, down to their fasteners, but they have distorted the market so much that no one would pay the actual prices for quality hardware.

      • +10

        Just a correction, there are no laws that require all public companies to maximise profit for shareholders.

        There are laws that require the Directors to to act in good faith, avoid self-dealing, and make decisions they reasonably believe to be in the company's best interests. What the company's best interests depends on the company's mission, values and goals.

        To your point about Wesfarmers specifically, their mission according to their website is:

        Wesfarmers’ primary objective is to deliver satisfactory returns to shareholders through financial discipline and exceptional management of a diversified portfolio of businesses.

        So they are operating to their mission and generating huge profits for their shareholders, of which I'm sure a lot of us are via Superannuation.

        What's most egregious from the Four Corners program is the blatant anti-competitive practices - textbook monopolistic tactics - that are not only rigging the market, but systematically screw over consumers in the long run, just like every other industry strangled by monopoly or duopoly control.

          Great reply - thanks.

        • Just a correction, there are no laws that require all public companies to maximise profit for shareholders.

          So much this

    • Bunnings have been pounding us in the….um…wallet for years!

      That said you can buy cheaper going to a timber/ plumbing/ garden centre but for all in one convenience they have blown away all the competition!

    • You should buy expensive Aussie home brands

  • I have one of these from a similar deal years ago, they are rubbish, save your money

  • +2

    I got this once. It crapped out and split the casing open on the first use. Avoid.

    • damn must have been going pretty hard?

      • Not even.

    Ozito everywhere… Ryobi almost feels like a premium product

    • +2

      Their brushless range is as good as most entry level trade tools. I was a diehard Milwaukee tradie for fifteen years (still love my M12 impact driver and drill), but for the money, you really can't beat Ryobi. Different story if you're using them all day, every day, of course.

      I changed careers and now have a stack of Ryobi gear, and it's unmatched in quality for the $ and their ridiculously long warranties.

  • How much was this earlier

  • +2

    I got given one of these a few years back. I normally sharpen drills by hand, and my wife thought this would help reduce the cursing while I'm doing it. It did not. Do not waste your money. Every single function this has, it does poorly, if it manages to do them at all.

    • Wow I'm hopeless at doing them by hand but i found this worked really well. Suspect my hand sharpening skills are just crap!

  • At first glance, thought this was a mechanical sharpener for pencils
