So it looks to me like it is just DELAYED and not cancelled so fingers crossed it appears. I have to inform my wife that her xmas present to me is delayed

I must have been lucky - happened to check last night and noticed the 'product delayed' badge had disappeared so kept refreshing this morning.

someone on hotukdeals thinks this is a rebadged Scheppach HBS261 which goes for £240 ish at screwfix and toolstation, previously it had a dark blue colour, but appears its now grey

here is a video:

it looks mighty similar to the grey pictures on the aldi website, so it looks like they have stuck with scheppach hs261 again

aldi were not able to supply me with a manual, but I have found the ferrex manual which isn't really the best: Scheppach HBS261, 5901505901 User manual | Manualzz...

here is a link to the scheppach hs261 manual, I haven't found one in english: https://cdn.webshopapp.com/shops/290204/files/330752105/5901505901-h.pdf
