BEST BRUSHCUTTER AROUND!!
I never normally review things I buy, but this definitely deserves it! Due to complications I wasn’t able to maintain my back garden which is the size of a small football pitch, so I brought this to cut down all the weeds and grass that had grown. And it was amazing! I cut through it all in around 45 minutes! It is so easy to assemble and use. This has helped so much, I honestly couldn’t recommend it more. If you’re looking for a good Brushcutter, buy this!!

This product is fantastic
The two handle design on this strimmer make life so much easier, less strain on your back. It cuts really well and completed the area faster than when I had a flymo. It has more power and precision.

Fair bit of kit
FBought this some time ago from Isle of Wight B & Q. Does the job adequately. Threw away the harness, and use my old Einhell one. Was disappointed at B&q lack of spares and useful advice. Seems that they have stitched up the strimmer head fittings to suite their own agenda. Could find no arbours or bushes to fit normal strimmer heads, and no suppliers of replacement strimmer heads. A useful garden tool ,as long as it works

Brilliant
I bought this to tackle seriously overgrown brambles that had grown over 2 years. I thought I was being ambitious expecting this to tackle them but I was wrong. This is by far the best thing I ever did. It tackled the brambles with ease using the blade. I'm not a gardener and was afraid to use it at first but I did it. And my garden is huge. It's not lightweight but nor is it too heavy. But I do suggest that you always use the harness. The reason I gave 4 stars and not 5 is because the quality of the harness is not great. But it still does the job. It does require you to set it up when you first get it and I had to get some help with that but I'm not experienced with this kind of thing so most people may not struggle with that. I am so pleased I bought this and would recommend it to anyone who needs something a bit better than just a strimmer.

Effective for the job, long cord but ...
I bought this to clear a jungle of a garden. Bit fiddly imho to put together and the balance of the machine when using feel awkward. The motor is powerful and cuts with the blade through everything I needed it to, however the motor sounds a bit gratey not sure it's the best quality and hopefully wont go kaput. The machine is fine for a very small orchard garden like mine but without being cordless it will provide limited use for some. But then again, who needs yet another charger and battery unit.

Great product let down by harness
I was really surprised by how powerful this is for an electric brush cutter, but ended up having to buy a better harness.
