Favourite Washboy? - Tile Advice

[LM]

Hi guys, my apprentice managed to loose the rollers of my washboy today and I was just about to order a new one tonight but as there's so many to choose from I thought I'd put it out there to see what the general consensus was on which one are your favourites. Any feed back would be appreciated

 

[Dave]

Can you get new rollers.?

 

[Bill]

Billy, he was the best.

Not so easy over here Dave, not many good stockists around of replacement parts etc so I thought I'd just treat my self to a new one

Karl Dahm for me but haven't tried any others so may be a bit biased.

I just stick a black bin bag in mine, lift it out when you've finished, tie the top and put the bag over a drain, let it sit for a bit to let the grout residue settle and then pierce a small hole on the corner of the bag to let the water drain out.

I recently got a washboy from Selco for £20, it's way better made than I ever thought it would be at that price and tbh I would now certainly never pay the silly price some ask for a bucket on wheels!
