th Bu-Ko as I already had their 5-in-1 pole 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.

sure I would get much more benefit from my revamped garden. I just loved the stylish appearance especially the stainless steel finish. While it is tall, it is so easy to move with the wheels and definitely has the wow factor. It is very important to me that customer service and support is available on any item I purchase and I have never before encountered the support and communications I have received from Burrowmount. I definitely recommend

t to be right. Upon removing the burner, found that the manufacturer had not assembled it correctly meaning gas was not directed via the burner causing the flame to be mis-directed and burning out the seal and causing other superficial damage. Could have been serious damage if I had left it to burn any longer than a few seconds. Quality control in assembly fault. Problem was simple to rectify.Contacted seller who were very quick to act and sent replacement part. I would rate the seller excellent.Apart from this an excellent product.

to assemble and quite light on your back, there is a bit of vibration on your back but the noise level is lower than expected. Considering the blower is more powerful than my old hand held it isn't as powerful which is a bit strange. All in all not a bad product with hindsight I would buy the next model for more power.

ct came with very easy instructions and Safety guidance when setting up and starting for the first time. Straight forward to assemble and very sturdy once put together. I have a field and a hill that has seen off a couple of strimmers over the years. Great value for its money, plus safety equipment that comes with it is standard but good. And this is from a Health and Safety Advisor.

rting so took the opportunity to upgrade to a backpack type. Best thing I've done with regard to leaf blowing.All the weight is on your back (nice padding, quite comfortable) good straps and the weight is not all on the hand anymore. Also no vibration on the hand which is a big difference. Easy to control. Simple to put together, just took a few minutes.Probably the most important thing is that it starts first time. The only downside is that where the starter pully is, you can't start it on your back, has to be done before putting on.
