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!

ok. However, the finish on this product is really poor. Aside from the inadequate assembly instructions, there are multiple sharp edges on various pieces that my husband cut himself on. My father (a former engineer) examined the parts and suggests that the mould at the factory is blunt so when the metal is punched, it burrs, leaving knife-sharp edges. Given the blue plastic protective coating comes off in bits and pieces, the parts need to be manoeuvred multiple times, increasing the chances of being cut. The worst cut my husband received was from one of the side panels and was touch and go as to whether it needed stitches. We have contacted the manufacturer, but a week on have not had a response. Buyers beware - this looks great from a distance but you need to wear protection on your hands when assembling and take real care when using it. Keep kids well away.

is came with tool kit spares etc.This is powerful and be careful if you hit a root it will grab and spin as all these tools do, cut the root out and carries on.. it makes very light work of digging 800mm holes and will save you a small fortune on post fix keeping a clean tidy post hole.Customer services are one of the best I have ever dealt with! sorted a small issue immediately and send replacement for a delivery damaged item which I received next day,, Thanks guys!

d value for money.The machine is a bit on a heavy side but for the price can definitely live with the extra weight vs much pricier machines.It's cutting/trimming well sometimes it is not so smooth tho.

ssues building it but mostly just not reading the instructions properly, one cut on the finger near the end getting the cellophane off the sides, had read previously to be careful of this, the product is very big, however we are delighted with it, the heat from it is good and light from it is amazing when you put the heater up full and see the flames going up the glass, good purchase.

iguilles de pin, de pommes de pin et autres brindilles. Le travail se fait en 3,4 mn, efficacement. Je trouve la soufflerie suffisamment puissante pour ce travail. Ce souffleur démarre finalement pas trop mal si on suit à la lettre le mode d'emploi (il me semble que le réservoir doit être complètement rempli pour un bon amorçage). Le port sur le dos n'est pas désagréable (il n'est pas lourd) et les bretelles tiennent bien.

mins to assemble, it was easy but you need to look at the picture on Amazon of the assembled unit. Started 2nd pull and it’s great. I have a large garden it dealt with leaves in no time. Would certainly recommend this blower.

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.
