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!

though the instructions are misleading. Pay close attention. Its easy to miss some screws on the frame, and also to not ensure the side where the panel drops in to cover the gas bottle is the side where the controls are. We had to take it half apart again. Mkae sure the slots at the bottom face the same way as control knob. You have been warned! Other than that its fine, reasonable output, looks good, and the cover that comes with it is also pretty reasonable quality. Would I buy it again at that price. Yes I would.

, started within a few pulls of the cord, and having a large garden with trees does the job with ease - also received work gloves, protective glasses and hearing protection which I never expected .

d it highly. All the tools, plus two extension poles, so worth a try. However, you see many of these with identical hardware badged under different brands.First problem was the handle - it had a locating lug but there was no corresponding hole in the shaft to locate the handle into, and so the handle could not be fitted without drilling a hole in the shaft - I didn't do it. So there is a picture of the shaft and the handle with the lug.Starting it up, the throttle sticks on high. The design of this is the same on all the other clone ones I saw, not very good.The label for choke operation was put on upside down, so choke would be off when you thought it was on.The plastic felt very cheap, and the accessories were very flimsy and lightweight.Good points were the splined shaft, and the fact the shaft ran in bearings, but were they good quality?It's heavy, and after trying it for a few seconds on the hedge cutter, I drained all the fuel and asked for a refund.Sending it back was ok, a pre-paid label was issued, but dropping it in at a Post Office was a pain - it's a big heavy box.Having said that, refund was smooth so I can't complain about that.Most of it was made in PRC , but some bits had 'Japan' stamped on them.You pay your money and you take your choice, except P.R.C has eliminated most of the competition.

to put together, started really easily, far easier than my 14” Einhell. This chainsaw is just as well made, and what amazing value, 2 bars, 4 chains, bag, toolkit, fuel bottle, funnel, face mask, specs and gloves, for the price tag you just can’t beat it. Tested it on a couple of logs of very well seasoned oak and it went through like butter. Fitted the 20” bar, nicely balanced and easy to control.

The media could not be loaded.
All arrived quickly and extraordinarily well packaged etc... be prepared for a little time to unpack and construct but it's easy to do if you follow the instruction. Its well worth the investment though as they look amazing, everyone comments. And I guess the real mark of customer service is when something isn't quite right, and we had a bent base on the second tower which whilst allowed completion meant it was slightly wobbly on it's feet. I emailed and the replacement part was with me within 3 days and now both our towers are perfect. Absolutely brilliant service and top quality product. If you want flame towers, I've not seen any better than these.
