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.

age. We bought this tool and borrowed our son. It is brilliant. Three heads, all of which do the business, and although it is quite heavy the harness takes the strain. .The brush cutter was exceptionally valuable for the brambles and tree suckers and all necessary safety equipment was included. How they do all this for £130 is unbelievable. I would thoroughly recommend this item.

high grass brambles up to waist height and large overgrown conifer bushes (still in the process of chopping them down with the chainsaw attachment. this tool has been an absolute godsend. engine is power full and seems to handle the workload very well (so far anyway). only downside is that i have encountered is that wearable parts eg bramble blades the chain for the chainsaw wears out pretty quickly but that could just be because of the extreme jungle i am trying to get under control and probably expecting too much for an average household this tool is a must.ork out of doing the hedges !!

the music blue tooth or the one without but decided to get the one with the music blue tooth great feature, The other great thing is the size of the gas compartment you can get a much larger gas bottle in compared with similar ones which reflects in the price of the gas as the larger the bottle the cheaper the gas becomes. I would say the only downside is if the cover was made of a stronger material so that the edges of the heater did not chaff the cover but having said that it would not put me off buying the heater as it is made of good quality but you only get what you pay for.

e souffleur après un essai d'une petite heure je n'ai pas ressenti le poids du moteur très agréable sur sa manipulation et par son efficacité .Après une semaine d'utilisation un petit problème est intervenu au niveau du starter je ne peu pas me servir de cette tirette étant bloquée cette panne m'inquiète j'ai peur que ce moteur fonctionne en continue avec le starter ouvert pour résumer simplement je ne sait pas si il est en position ouvert ou fermée . J'ai averti mon vendeur mais je n'ai pas de réponse pour le moment . En tous cas chose étrange c'est que ce moteur démarre aussi bien à froid que à chaud . Très inquiétant ?

but does take a morning - lots of pieces - and the instructions aren't great. Looks good and seems to work well. Not that easy to manoeuvre given its height but okay on a firm surface with the wheels. It is at risk of blowing over in strong winds so I've taken to attaching it to the drainpipe with a strap when not in use .
