Does anyone know if they sell something similar in Europe ( Belgium) for that price?

Does anyone know if they sell something similar in Europe ( Belgium) for that price?

I have never seen anything with this functionality at this price. I am really amazed they can market this at this price, having both the airless and HVLP functionality in one. Of course I don't know at what quality standard this thing is built. If it works it's extremely good value for the money.

The things that comes closest to this in Europe that I know about are Wagner's products. Wagner has a line of spray equipment that ranges from Pro to Semi-Pro to Hobbyist. Even their Semi-Pro line is a lot more expensive than this Milwaukee sprayer. Check out some of Wagner's Hobbyist and Semi-Pro lines at ToolProf. They also ship to Belgium but I'm sure Wagner is also sold in Belgium.

Anyone thinking of getting this, here's a coupon for $100 off, final price $279.

I couldn't get the coupon to work. It says Adobe file is damaged and cannot be repaired.

It's still working for me, maybe you need to upgrade the version of Adobe you're using.  Under the Help menu in Adobe, select Check For Updates.

Well, it's working now. I didn't do anything, but click on it again. I tried 3 or 4 times last night, but got the same response. Thanks for posting that. I have the Wagner airless sprayer, but for that price, would love to own this one too.

 

[morogue]

I think we all would love to hear anything regarding this system in use, thanks.

 

[Memphis Larry]

Bump.

Still thinking about buying one of these sprayers.  Would like to use the $100 rebate good for the remainder of this month.

Any feedback from actual users?  Tom??

Hey
I found out some DISAPPOINTING information on these....TTI Milwaukee's owner has pulled a Porter-Cable here The internal parts to this are all from Milwaukee's sister Ryobi  [sad]  TTI rebadged  ryobi mechanics in Milwaukee red and black  ........ shame on them

is there a problem with ryobi mechanics?

For the price point, they actually decent tools.

A Corolla is not a Lexus, but it can still cart you to the store

Manufacturers of tools typically manufacture - or have manufactured - to a price point.  The Festool users out there are lucky because Festool focuses on quality, longevity, innovation, and not necessarily price.  I think the tools that we will see this year will put an exclamation point on that.  That is why they are comfortable enough to offer the warranties they do.

I think the issue at hand is when manufacturers have several quality lines and then use the reputation (goodwill) of one line whose history has been of better quality to sell a product that is really a rebadged lesser quality product.

I have many Ryobi tools from the 1980's when they first came out as competition to Makita.  There were lawsuits at that time regarding price dumping and also similarity of colors.  They were very innovative and they still are.  They do indeed serve a place in the tool chain.

Peter- I have several older Ryobi's.

They were made in Japan and were really similar to the Makita's at the time.

I still have 2 grinders and a electric drill that are working like new.

Kind of a shame a company can start out like that and end up where they are now.

Look at PORTER&CABLE I think they are doing the same thing!

The above is true of nearly every company that's ever existed - at least those with more than half a dozen employees. It's how the world works, unfortunately.

 

[WarnerConstCo.]

That's what happens when they look at price points first and then fill in the blanks.

Remember the Cadillac Cimerion  [blink] Re-badged Pontiac.

People Expect a certain things from a brand.

The fact is if TTI had launched this as a Ryobi It would have never even bliped on our radar. 

Rather than have its own thread on FOG

I believe that the Cadillac Cimarron was actually a re-badged Opal, not a Pontiac. 

 

[WarnerConstCo.]

Actually, here in the states it was a re-badged chevy cavalier.

 

[score0matic]

no it is a GM J series its siblings were the Chevy Cavalier  and the Pontiac J 2000  it even used the Pontiac motor.

upon further research we are  ALL right:

Was that the best cadillac had to choose from? [sad]

 

[RONWEN]

I had a 1981 Chevy Citation that had the exact body as the Caddy Cimmaron.

Has anyone who just bought one had a chance to try it out?

How does it perform?
