Hi To Everyone,got A Question For You All,has Anyone Bought One Of Those Mirak Washboys On Ebay And Are They Worth A Go?? I Know I Should Probably Go For A Karl Dahm But I Wouldnt Mind Saving A Few Quid At The Moment,any Ideas Would Be Greatly Taken< Cheers

i like karl dahm now

cant comment on the one on eby but if its cheap, then theres normally a reason.

As long as the rollers are bearing based then it should be ok....and you could always buy a better sponge board if the one that comes with it is no good...... .
But you only want to buy one washboy so if i was you i would buy a good one first time....rubi or karldahm...both are top notch.........

Only one roller?
No bearings just plastic.....hmmm i think that would last about 3 jobs
Buy cheap ...blah blah blah
