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.

, j’ai reçu le souffleur très rapidement.J’ai même pas fait attention si la notice est en Français, j’ai juste suivi les images : 3 trucs à emboiter, c’est vite fait.Ya bien une pompe d’amorçage (c’était pas précisé). Pas eu de souci pour démarrer.Ca souffle fort, plus fort que mon électrique de 1800W, mais je suis content de pas avoir pris plus petit (j’ai le 65cc).J’ai aussi apprécié les petits accessoires fournis avec (gants, casque etc…).Au final je suis vraiment content de mon achat :C’est comme un sac à dos, on ne le sens plus. Et fini cette p***** de rallonge de m**** qui s’emmêle autour de n’importe quoi et qui veut obstinément finir dans la piscine !Ca devient carrément ludique, mais c’est beaucoup plus bruyant qu’un électrique.Le seul défaut, c'est qu'on peut pas couper le soufle (sans couper le moteur): même au ralenti, ca souffle un peu. C'est déroutant au début.

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 ?

Great budget chainsaw

others to a lower level (I dug all the earth around the stump first) and in the future for me to cut logs and timber so I can turn on a lathe.It was easy to assemble & fit the chainbar and chain. Once primed, it started and ran well, and was very easy to re-start.Safety brake works well, (kicked back only once and that was my fault!)Safety kit although basic is adequate for home gardening use. The mesh face guard will stop flying debris, I have prescription safety glasses provided by employer so didn’t need the goggles.The spare chains are a bonus as well. I thought I’d get through more than 1 chain on this stump but was pleased that 1 chain was suffice - there were a lot of vertical cuts on this job and it was just starting to blunt toward the end - there is a file provided to sharpen the chain.Had to tighten the chain 3or 4 times but that is to be expected and was easy to do - (loosen the chainbar locking nuts a bit, tighten the chain and then re-tighten the nuts).Neat carry bag (but only fits chainsaw with the 16” chain fitted).Toolkit has all the appropriate tools needed.All in all, a great budget chainsaw package with everything you need to get going (except fuel & oils). It’s not a chainsaw for professional arborists or tree fellers, but certainly good enough for use in the garden.Would I recommend - absolutely.

. It blows the leaves very well and the blower tube is light and easy to direct.The supplier was very helpful with some questions I had about the product and helped me get the most out of the machine.I have even enjoyed picking up the leaves this year!
