I have been using a little Karcher at the house which has served its purpose but it was time for a renew. This little Ozito was very cost effective… Read more
at only $99 at Bunnings. I set it up and used it for around an hour straight. Its grunty enough and was as good as, if not slightly better than the Karcher. This was a first use and as I have a lot more blasting to do I will keep this review updated. Just an update. I have used the new Ozito for another hour or so and have encountered no issues. I have noted it is somewhat gruntier than my old Karcher. As my Karcher is still working, albeit spasmodically, I will do a comparison.

only positive. The feeder constantly blocked, and after a while the exit chute would block too. Had to constantly turn it off to clear jammed material. I calculated it would take hours to process, so instead I got the lawnmower out and ran it over the lot and it was done in 10 minutes. So the supposed purpose designed machine failed where the humble mower designed for something else left it for dead. Completely unfit for purpose and very poorly designed. Don't buy this junk !

2022. Considering how much more expensive everything got since then, it's not bad. My experience has been good. I can see a few bad reviews but expectations should be tempered by the very low price. You are getting a Kia, not a Rolls Royce. :-D On the positive side, it's simple, does the job and even has speed adjustment. For what it is, the 3 year warranty is a nice bonus and gives a peace of mind. On the negative side, and this is my only main gripe, the original collection bag didn't last very long. I was able to get a replacement bag and it seems to hold together better but it's very ill-fitting. No matter what I did, air would leak around it, blowing out dust. But, there is nothing a bit of duct tape couln't fix, right?! I just wrapped some around the connection chute and everything was fine after that. So, that's one replacement bag in 3 years and still going, so maybe it's not that bad. The other thing is that the chute is relatively tight, so never let the bag fill up 100% but you shouldn't do that, anyway. Normally it still doesn't clog up but somebody borrowed it and let the bag fill up with damp leaves and I had to remove the bag and clean out the chute which clogged up and the blower/vacc selection lever was stuck. It was just a few minute job to fix, so no big drama. I can see most people spring for the battery operated alternatives but a corded blower vacc like this is way cheaper, powerful, has no hassles with charging expensive batteries that are subject to losing charge with aging and no danger of running out of juice mid-job and you don't have the added weight of the battery to lug around. If you have a long enough extension cord and a mains socket nearby, corded is great. Of course, it's not suitable for wet weather but blower vaccs wouldn't work well in wet conditions, anyway. This was a replacement for a corded Ryobi which had a multitude of usability problems and I was quietly happy when it died and had to find a replacement. Ryobi used be cheap and cheerful but it's now neither and I think Ozito has that crown.

followed the instructions in the online manual and it works beautifully. Does a fantastic job of cutting my couch and kikuyu lawns when dry (you shouldn’t cut wet lawns anyway). Something wholesome about using a push reel mower compared with my petrol mower. * tip. You can take the roller off and fill it with sand to make it heavier. This gives a better cut and stops the mower bouncing.

Super useful bit of kit that will easily pay for itself several times over in time and money! – Super happy with my purchase. Dropped one of the battery terminal bolts into the bike and it fell deep into the curved innards of the frame. Spent… Read more
nearly an hour trying to spot it. Even removing most of the fairing didn't help. Contemplated just giving up and getting a mobile mechanic to come fix the r/r and stator and find the bolt...
Purchased a simple magnetic pickup tool but the magnetic head was quite large and in any case it just means you wind up waving the tool around blindly hoping it would catch. Retrieving it would also mean snaking it around blind corners which probably wouldn't have worked given how tight the space was inside the motorcycle and NO visibility
The Ozito camera is very compact, only a hair wider than the wand itself which made it easy to push past narrow corners and wiring. The camera monitor has two controls for brightness and contrast which makes it easy to set the right brightness level to light the dark insides of the bike without the glare from the light making it impossible to distinguish things. The screen is bright enough and sharp enough to be perfectly adequate for the purpose. It also came with a few tools that attach to the wand, hooks, mirror and a magnetic pickup.
Five minutes of poking around found the errant nut. Pulled back the wand, attached the magnetic pickup and the nut came out first try!
For the money, this handy tool will save you a TON of time and frustration... no... a ton of DESPAIR and with a 3 year warranty, you can't really complain about it being a budget brand. Build quality is excellent, comes in a nice hard case nicely labelled so it's easy to store and ready to find when the inevitable happens again. If you do any work on machines or around the house, it's one of those "Oh, why didn't I buy this sooner?!" things...
And then there's all the inappropriate places you can stick a tiny camera into for fun.

Leaf Blower. I believe that her choice was based on her having a quick search through my workshop, where the majority of battery tools are Ozito. This blower is AMAZING! I'd not thought that the air blast could be that powerful , but not only leaves, but small branches, gravel, small stones etc, all succumbed to the blast and the back verandah is now uncluttered pristine brick paving! The garage is next - and wherever else I find that needs a cleanup
The worst ever spray unit – Possibly the worst most inefficient spray unit I have ever had the misfortune to use. I used it once it started stopped the struggled to push unthined fence paint. It’s a piece of Chinese junk!

having already purchased other Ozito tools and batteries. It is certainly less expensive than most other cordless alternatives. Light weight makes it easy to transport and store. We have a medium size Sir Walter buffalo lawn which we keep at least 1 to 2 inches in length so often find I'm pushing hard to progress through thicker grass which may be 3 plus inches long. The mower is surprisingly torquey, and up for it and the 4Ah battery lasts the distance. Worth having a spare just in case, or rotating areas over different days. The blades are super sharp straight out of the box which means the cutting action is great but easily damaged if you hit a stone which can stop the reel rotating and require a file and re-adjustment. This machine is also allergic to hardwood chip mulch as it will instantly lock up on a chip and require releasing. Difficulty inserting the battery can be a minor annoyance as it requires perfect alignment to slide in it's holder and you often find yourself having to get down low to do that. Due to its light weight it can float over the grass at times so needs downwards pressure to keep it's 'bite'. Height adjustment is a waste of time. It needs to be set at it's lowest to maintain a reasonable length and the handle position is too low for a taller operator. I modified mine so the handle is locked at a higher position and downwards pressure can be maintained. This made the difference between being useful v. useless. Like all reel mowers it will leave some patches and miss grass unless your ground is perfectly flat. Be prepared to criss-cross some areas if not. The catcher is a waste of time as it quickly fills and it is a pain to bend over to release and re-attach. Easier to rake afterwards.

product keeps just going and going. The batteries have survived too. I'm a 71 year old woman and its just so light and easy. Wish the pole hedger was as light...but this is beyond value for money.

moves up and falls out. There is no way that it could work. It's a joke. I had to drill a hole in the back and put a bolt in to get it to function. Also the blade is very poor quality and I had to replace it with the blade from my old saw. The dust bag doesn't collect dust at all. Apart from that it works OK for the price.

appearance and features of the mower. That said I was not expecting great performance from it, I did not think two battery packs would provide the power or range to match the old 4 stroke. How wrong I was. Having assembled it and charged the batteries last night I mowed the front lawn this morning. I was instantly very pleased by the performance. It ate up the front lawn which was in need of a cut. Then I went out the back and put it through some weeds that had got quite big. It never hesitated. It's not something I will do with it often, but it proved to be a powerful tool, and has a surprising length of use without going flat. The control bar is simple to use and the noise level is quite low and not unpleasant. The catcher fills right up before needing to be emptied. The Ozito mower has certainly exceeded my expectations, and with a 5 year warranty I think we made a good purchase. I recommend it.

tool and way more versitlie to move to a new location with just a bayonet hose connector. 4 Nosel adjustment jets can produce a desired spray pattern and nice feel bayonet fitting with the ability to add 1 or 2 extensions. The included 2.5amp battery estimate would last 1 hr making it quite efficient. It took oil spill off painted surface so enough pressure to lift oil better than standard hose pressure. It will not replace 240v units but the vesitility and portability means the it can be used by Misses. Small intricate jobs Plastic outside chairs engine sump odd spiders web and mud wasp nest. Kit comes with accessoraries for soap dispensor and handy bag for kit. 5 year warranty. Had to file a little off the hose connector to make it suit my hose fitting but that could be my fittings.

out camping etc. Obviously it's not going to cut a full load of firewood or a 20 inch hardwood log but it's got plenty of power for the occasional user. I like how it's very quiet, and how easy the chain is to adjust. The chain doesn't seem to get a lot of oil, but as it's a slow chain speed compared to a petrol unit it probably doesn't need a lot. Battery life is adequate with the 4.0AH batteries (why you would even consider using a 1.5AH battery I don't know...) and it's very solidly built.
No worth – Stop in the middle while doing the job won’t recommend

air being released. The job does get done fairly well. Perfect for anything small or vertically positioned items like walls, fences etc The Engineers and Designers at Ozito designed this well, all the main components can be disassembled for cleaning the paint residue that remains after a job. No real risk of the internal components snapping.
Please note, for the curious minds that want to try their luck with using this spray gun for their backyard car spray jobs, i do not recommend. Please refer to my attached pictures. (Primer coat to Base coat to Clear coat) The spray does not suit the purpose of applying paint on cars. As mentioned above, spray gun needs to be level, regardless of the level of paint in the container. There is no flexibility to use your wrists when painting horizontally flat surfaces, the minute you try to bend your wrist, paint stops being released. Meaning, there is possibly uneven spots towards the centre of the horizontal panel. It has to do with the combination of the air push from the Ozito dispersing the paint too unevenly. You will see blobs. This is the best outcome i could achieve, using the Ozito for the car panel. I was hoping for a nicer, smoother Clear Coat finish, but didn't get it.
Overall, a great value device for use around the home. Do definitely recommend if you are on a budget.
Genuinely impressed. I've tried the 7.5l and 3.5l ryobi competitors and the ozito performs better. Better spray pattern, pressure, low noise and… Read more
feels like the pump is better. No weird chugging sounds like the ryobi. Build quality of the units are comparable however the ozito tank seems a little thinner although both will have durability issues long term. I think a solution would be if there was housing for the tank and strong feet to protect the tank. The wand of the ozito is definitely superior. Id recommend the ozito particularly given the longer warranty. Ryobi is 4yrs but 2 more if you register.
Great bit of Kit. I painted 70 lineal meters of 6ft fence with this, no hiccups, no heat-up or splatter. All plastic parts make it extremely easy to disassemble and clean. The plastic nozzle doesn't heat up, which is great.

only want to do small jobs. I researched a lot, and couldn't see the point in buying the $800-$1000 machines, for the amounts I cement. At the time, this one had the largest electric motor, and I have done @ 70 loads of concrete over the years. And it keeps on going. I have been carefully to clean it properly to keep it usable. Can't fault the motor or the capacity. So why not 5 stars? The design and build.This machine is physically hard work to use. The ergonomics is designed for people who are 5ft tall. Difficult not to skin your shins when wheeling it around. Have to bend over and wheel it with a bent back. Can't get a wheel barrow under it (i will never understand this),to pour the load out.(I use 20lt buckets, so it's messy, in that respect).generally I need a tarp on the ground under it. It is very top heavy when mixing, which is stable as long as it's perfectly flat. All the steel is thin. So it dented when 1 load over balanced and fell. Sometimes I have to weight it down on small slopes. The handle for pouring takes a lot of strength to use, and you have to physically balance the whole load with back twisting effort, to pour it out.

thicker pieces of timber. A couple of downsides - the dust bag is for show only and practically useless and before using the saw, make a couple of practice cuts to ensure the saw is cutting at 90 degrees. The first saw I bought had to be offset by around 8 degrees to get a perfect square cut (even with the saw table offset to the max). I returned this saw to Bunnings and they had no issue to provide a replacement. The new saw still needs to be offset by a couple of degrees but nowhere near as bad as the original saw. I figure this will be an issue with these saws and a result of a low price. 'You get what you pay for' right? The upsides - it's cheap, does what it's supposed to do and has a 3 year warranty. Overall, a positive experience and happy with Ozito.
not a good experience as the red blades are continuously coming off despite being put on properly, a real nuisance and one that i am advised can not be fixed

heap of money to get the right stuff, but for a once off or infrequent use, $30 is worth it for the time you save in grinding / sanding. You have to have a pretty decent air compressor to feed this thing and get in real close, but it easily strips paint and rust from delicate objects that you just can't get sandpaper into.
One upside is that the blaster comes with sandblasting media, so you can walk out the door ready to start the job.
Overall - adequate

something for a short time that I can throw away or give to someone else. This is the worst vacuum cleaner I've ever had since I inherited my parent's 1960's Hoover UFO vacuum cleaner (which still works but with duct tape holding it together). Suction is so bad on the Ozito that I have to place the nozzle on top of the object for it to be sucked up. It's so loud, ear protection is mandatory. The nozzle and vacuum connections do not have swivel joints so that you can't just vacuum at an angle or move around unless you twist and wind with the hose, because otherwise, the vacuum tips over. The wheels and center of gravity is so bad that if I pull the vacuum onto my thin carpet, the whole thing tips over. This is because the hose is connected at the top of the vacuum and not at the bottom. Once tipped over, the thing wails and loses suction. The power cord is only 1.5m long. I really don't get how this thing got through design and why Bunnings would even sell this.
