    So I want to buy a new 9" angle grinder but undecided about either the Makita GA9020KDor the Bosch GWS22-230H. I was after some opinions. I know they are good pieces of kit in their own right but one must come out on top. I like the fact that the Makita comes with a case but I think the Bosch might be better.

    I can get the Makita for £112 and the Bosch for £96 with a half decent diamond blade.

    The best angle grinder I've had is a hitachi (don't know which, the labels worn) but it's out lived any grinder I've ever had.

    Do you know what, when reading the above post I was thinking neither, get a Hitachi, I get through angle grinders like nobody business laying Block Paving, over the 25 years of laying them, Hitachi grinders are by far the best I have bought, ironically one of the worst was Dewalt absulte rubbish didn't last a month, if you are dead set one one of your choices then go Mikita, I have used these aswell and found them to be very good, but not as good as Hitachi.

    That's the same one as you get in the twin pack, for the same price. It's upto you whether you prefer a case or a 4 inch grinder. I'd go for the twin pack. I don't do cases. Mines never been in a case.

    Every time I've bought a new Hitachi, it has always come in a moulded case like the one in the listing above.
