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!

luding a spare spark plug and H & S kit. Takes a while to put together and is very heavy. I bought the long reach version and tested it with all 3 extensions and it was far too heavy to use with all 3, and that was using it with the harness. Then tried it with 2 extensions and although it was still very heavy it was just about usable if you have it balanced and adjusted correctly.The extensions are very tight and stiff, even after lubrication and the pinch bolt nuts fall out every time you dismantle the extensions, if you where doing this on grass you would never find the nuts again.The engine started ok but needed a small amount of choke to keep it running even when warmed up.Good value for the money but unless you have good strength you will fine it hard to manoeuvre especially when using the extensions.

useful extras (like additional cutting heads) and safety kit. The instructional video was useful but bits were for a different model (no real problems). The machine worked very well. A loose choke cover meant a lost air filter but this was promptly replaced free of charge.

decepcionado por partida doble. El producto sufrió dos averÃas los primeros 14 meses. Varias protecciones se soltaron y se cayeron los tornillos. La segunda averÃa se debió a un mal diseño de la correa para arrancar el aparato. Esta se partió.Me puse en contacto con el vendedor para reparar el aparato y me dijeron que ya no estaba en garantÃa. Les indiqué que en Europa la garantÃa por ley es de dos años y asà lo indica también la propia ficha del vendedor. A pesar de estar cometiendo una ilegalidad, no quisieron reparar el aparato. Nunca más con este vendedor. Muy decepcionado también con Amazon que permite que algunos vendedores como éste engañen a sus clientes.

It arrived today on the 22nd. The seller emailed me to say that the product had been dispatched and also sent me links to how to use it so i was able to see how it worked before it arrived.It is an excellent strimmer and even came with ear muffs and safety helmet.I would 100% recommend buying from this 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!
