Was in the local commercial  motor factors getting a few bits and bobs, and while I waited, I saw a Metabo 18V grease gun sitting on display.

£185.00 + VAT

And I already got some Metabo 18V stuff already.

But no other cordless stuff at all.

However the Milwalkui stuff is significently cheaper, but I would need to buy an additional Milwalkui charger and battery.

And the Milwalkui range of stuff is fantastic. .  .   

So any thoughts as to which brand makes the better grease gun?

P.S.

Spent some time recently looking for a third hand to (i) hold, (ii) pump and (iii) keep the end correctly aligned wi the grease  nipple.

And was thinking, man ah need a cordless GG.

Edit

To add they were able to cross ref the original Korean Deadong? hydraulic filter fir the Kioti.

I was rather impressed.

The Makita grease gun is the best on the UK marktet currently but the Milwauke M18 (not the M12!) will do for most users.

 

The rest of the Milwaukee range is, as you say, very impressive.

Be careful they can bugger your batteries if you are not very careful

I have a Milwaukee grease gun and rate it very highly. I can't compare it to any others though as I've only used the Milwaukee.

 

I have quite a lot of other Milwaukee stuff and it all seems very good. The cordless mag drill in particular is brilliant if you need one.

Still using a manual grease gun myself, but thinking about it, everyone I know with a battery greaser is using milwaukee. Noticed you can get an adaptor to use 500g cartridges for the milwaukee now too, I prefer them to the smaller ones you've to insert tha springy thingy into.
