Perfect. Heat the atmosphere. It is ideal for a covered terrace. Let's hope the bottle doesn't burn ...

out too soon!!
The shipment arrived before time but with the box totally broken. As usual, some pieces were missing; the most important: the mounting screws. Contacted the seller, he was sorry for what happened and they sent me the parts that were lost. Communication, then, excellent.
Assembly more or less easy, although it took time.

ole saw/strimmer/hedge trimmer set, and it seemed to be pretty well made and reliable. Anyway, this turned up and seemed to be well built, too. However, it refused to start. Now I'm not exactly a stranger to small 2-stroke motors, but this one defeated me for 4 days. Not even the tiniest splutter to indicate it wanted to run, so I contacted the seller to request a return. I got an almost immediate response, including a video (about which I was skeptical) and a request for a phone number and a convenient time for an engineer to call me if the video didn't help. OK, OK, it started almost immediately, so I feel a bit of a prat, but it almost doesn't need choke at all to start and floods as soon as you look at it. Anyway, 10 out of 10 for customer service.
The saw runs really well, and was getting easier and easier to start during the weekend as it started to get run in. Second tank of fuel, and it was running sweetly. (Note: the manual says 25:1 and the saw says 40:1 for fuel/oil, and I checked with Burrowmount to see which was correct - turns out the first tank or two at 25:1 is fine for running in, then back to 40:1). One last log to chop and we're done for the weekend - the recoil starter handle comes away in my hand. OK, so the knot probably came undone, so I took the cover off and no, the cord had been cut through (presumably by the spring) and the starter had sort of self destructed. Anyway, another email to Burrowmount and a very quick reply to say that they were escalating it to their engineers. Three days later and a complete new starter arrived in the post.
So what can we conclude? For the price, don't expect Stihl quality and reliability, but that goes without saying. Chinese QA still seems to be a bit of a lottery, but these guys have the back-up to make up for any quality issues in the products. The other kit from the same supplier is fine, and having sorted it out, I have no reason to think I should have any more problems with this one. Overall, a great set-up with absolutely superb back-up and customer service.

t would be the same for any tiller. Just wait a week or so for it to dry and remove tree rootes. Moverd it over to an area not so wet and it worked like a dream. Didnt expect so many extras. mixer and gardening gloves really useful not to mention the extra spar plug. That will defintly come in handy because finding the right one is so difficult.
Intrstuctions not fantastic but if you have done flat packs its OK to work from the picture.
Definily a good buy.

m and two days later new part arrives by post, that is spot on amongst a minefield of bad suppliers, it's a breath of fresh air.Tried out the chainsaw with high branches 2-3" diameter no problem, (need a hard hat and goggles) not tried other accessories but can't see any problem on top of all that starts first pull.One of the best gardening tools ever bought, hats off to Bu-KO. No hesitation in buying anything else from them as the product and service is second to none.

rtainly fits the bill. It came on time, early in fact and after we had checked everything was in the box and intact (it was) we chickened out of assembling it till the following day. In fact we needn't have worried as the video of the assembly, recommended by the seller, made everything much simpler and we had no problems. The end result was most attractive and enhanced our seating area brilliantly. We had one issue on lighting the heater initially: we contacted the seller and their response was superb. A new part was sent out immediately and this we fitted and all was well. The flame effect, particularly at night is entrancing. We highly recommend both the heater and the seller.

in the main though a couple of times we had to undo what was said to fit another part and then re-do the original. The screws are quite small and fiddly and the panelling needs to be shoved into place at times for the screw holes to match. You definitely need 2 people to assemble it all.The rubber ring on which the glass tubes sit was missing from the original packaging but the seller was very quick to respond (on a Sunday afternoon!) and the ring arrived by the following Saturday. The heat output is good, particularly for the upper body.The cover managed to blow off in the strong wind so we have since tied it with string in a couple of places.A good product in all, just be prepared for the assembly!
