il types. Doesn’t like stones or large roots but that is to be expected. These can be dealt with using long spike.
Can be hard to control unless you’re braced but this is a brilliant product for the price. Highly recommended.

tle, safety glasses and ear protectors , tool kit and funnel, together with user manual. First impression was a smart looking piece of kit but I have to say it was a bit of a shock to feel the weight as my entire previous experience of a hedge trimmer has been a corded Black and Decker which I had for about 24 years but had just about reached the end of its useful life. Read through the instructions a couple of times ( still a bit confused er the choke positioning) , mixed and loaded fuel ( about a pint) and had a go at my first ever petrol engined trimmer. It fired on about the 3rd pull , started and after a few minutes warm up tried the throttle- wow this is a bit of a beast! Had a try at trimming a small bush , which went well , but a bit late in the day so switched off and left it till following day. Went the whole hog following day- side hedge, and 7 bushes of various sizes and species. Did it in several goes primarily not being used to the weight and power but finished result better than any of my previous trimming and overall was still faster than my old trimmer. Overall very pleased. Looks good and gives a good clean cut . Has plenty of power and in spite of it being quite heavy seems well balanced. So far has started well. If I have one niggle it's the ignition switch which seems very sensitive and I managed to inadvertently switch it off ( catching it with my glove) a couple of times but this may well be my inexperience. Seems good value and if it lasts as long as my previous electric one I will be well pleased. Mind you as I am over 70 it will probably outlast me!

up 5/6 years ago. Its outlast a few other machines. Good on fuel. Plenty of attachments. Only just packed in this year. 2022. And I didnt treat it very well.Extention poles / Reach for hedge cutter is great, if your not strong it will be hard to handle at full length.The power of the Bu-ko, ive had 2 different makes just this year none have matched the Bu-ko in the slightest for power. Also just realised how little vibration / feedback you get of the bu-ko as well, compared to others I have.Bad side of it is, the plastic casings / handle , button are cheap and not great. Also the goggles, earmuffs are nasty. After a while the ruber feeders / supports inside the poles that fix the metal rotating bar in place, start to move or twist making it hard to fix them onto the machine / putting other extention poles together.Would I buy again, yes in hindsight. For price its great. Just would be nice if they matched the quality of the engine power with better fixings, casings, plastics etc.Ferrari engine, fiat panda shell.

y. Great addition to our garden. Quick delivery. Bit fiddly to put together and would definitely advise you wear the gloves that come with it. My hubby didn’t and cut himself in several places on his hands. Had to use our own regulator because the one supplied didn’t fit our gas bottle ... there may be a technical reason for this that I don’t understand as I say my hubby put it together., took him about 2 hours. I love it .... looks great. Not used it properly yet so can’t comment on how good it is in that respect.

that let me down I was a bit concerned about buying another one from the internet. How wrong I was this is a fantastic piece of equipment well built and with a amazing set of additions that I did not expect. Comes with a small toolkit which would be handy to anyone that has not got a tremendous amount of sockets in their shed. Came packaged well and the instruction booklet although not straight forward is easy to understand one you have looked through a couple of times. Took around 1 hour to fully assemble all the parts and double check all screws and bolts tight as most machine require that little look over to ensure nothing loose. Fuelled up the unit with 2 stroke oil as per the supplied bottle and attached the hedge trimmer without the extension. Primed the carburettor and pulled the recoil starter and it fired up on the second pull. I proceeded to cut our hedge which was around 3 meters tall and upon first use seemed fine. During use I found it started to run on a little so I rang the supplier up and spoke to a gentleman who was very informative and gave me a couple of suggestions to slow the machine down. Went back to the garden and started the unit up on the first pull with no effort at all, previous manufactures that I had to start after stopping took some time this one did not. I completed the task in hand with ease apart from the very top, as I did try with another extension but I think will need to build my arm muscles up as unable to hold steady. This is no reflection on the machine just me being a weakling. Overall very satisfied with my purchase and feel I have finally found something which does what it says. I was also informed any problems contact direct and they will either talk through if adjustments or if a warranty claim will send direct from their stores. I felt very assured by this company and would not hesitate to recommend this equipment. My only minor snag is the nuts fall out of the extension tubes when you release the locking knob.

e first time, so after an email correspondence with the seller, I got a call from an engineer who talked me through it, with the help of a video, and got it working. Looks great, gives off lots of heat, and really pleased with the after-sales service - so hard to find these days.

ed with them. I have had so many compliments of how trendy and cool they look in the garden. Have been able to have some fantastic nights in the garden because of the heat these heaters give. They were very easy to put together and would recommend them. Two of our friends have ordered them after seeing ours. The company was great to deal with and communication with them was first class.
