Had to buy one once because I was in a fix, tried using it, found it near impossible because of roller set up position and the stupid grout catching tray, ended up using a sponge and taking it back to machine mart as unfit for purpose, they gave me my money back there and then.

In my opinion, avoid like the plague and invest a little more in a decent one

Karl dahm is the best one IMO

Spend that bit more and get a decent one that will last years....


Washboy

Made by 'Karl Dahm' Germany

If you have never used one of these, you are wasting hundreds of hours a year grouting the old fashioned way. This system has totally revolutionised grout finishing. First of all there is no more getting your hands wet and wrinkly wringing out sponges. Then there is the increased speed at which you work followed by the near perfect clean finish, even on quarry floor tiles. Not to mention the fullness of joint easily achieved. This system can pay for itself in the time saved over a couple of weeks and your customers will be impressed by the cleanness of your finish.There are plenty of washboys available but I have found this Karl Dahm washboy to be by far the best. With sealed ball bearing rollers that last for years and years and a really heavy duty galvanised metal grid to separate the sediment from the water.


If you wash the sponge out after use with clean water and store it without getting squashed when wet, it should be good for over 1000 square metres

weight 4.0 Kg

Supplied with 2 x sponges on handles (non slit type), metal grid and ball brearing sponge rollers
