5-In-1 Garden Multi Tool - Petrol Strimmer, Cutter, Trimmer

Well made, robust at a great price

For the price it gets 5 stars. I work for myself and needed a cheap machine to lend out to workers. It is quite heavy even for me who uses machinery most days but I can’t complain for the money. Good power. Easy to start. Well built too it seems. A good buy for £153

absolutely battered mine, year on or so and engine all running fine still. A minor fault to why its a 3star, the quick realease connection from the engine unit has kind of broke, the pin is bent and the hole has enlarged, now for the battering it has had, cut way bigger trees then intended, the hedge trimmer has chopped way thicker branches than intended almost like a recip saw lol, i dont blame the bending. wouldnt dare use the brush cutter, who knows if id have a leg left but strimmer is okay, bit heavy to long use but what do you expect for the price, an all in one garden tender with a bit of adrenaline

Probably the most dangerous piece of equipment I've ever come across is 40 yrs on the trade.. lethal.. Not only did the harness snap within 5 mins but I was only using the strimmer.. that alone is a piece of utter disfunction. Doesn't self feed. Spent 15 mins trying to reload it. When I did eventually get it going the harness broke away from the cheap aluminium mount, the strimmer fell to the floor giving a helmet full of gravel.. They should be locked up for selling this abortion of a coffin certificate.

I would highly recommend this tool I have used all of the attachments and could not fault any of them. It's not light but I wouldn't expect it to be once the harness supplied is adjusted correctly it holds the weight comfortably on your shoulders. I bought it because the extension lead on the electric strimmer wouldn't reach and wish I had bought it earlier as in 10 mins I had cut what took me 2 hrs with the electric. The hedge trimmer cuts with ease and because of the adjustable head you can get it into the correct position for trimming hedges. The chainsaw attachment cuts easily the most I cut so far is around about 4 inches which it done no problem. Providing you remember to prime and turn the on switch on (I didn't first time) it starts no problem. The only niggle I have is that the bottle supplied for mixing oil you can handle see the marks.(very petty I know but it's the only bad thing I could think of).

For value for money, this kit is great, especially for occasional domestic use. It seems well built and sturdy. However, there are a few downsides. It’s quite heavy so the harness is essential for prolonged use. It takes a while to get the adjustment right but worth persevering with. The trigger is quite bulky so, as an active pensioner, after a while I find gripping it quite tiring, especially with my arthritic hands. The stop switch is easily caught if you’re not careful. It obviously needs to be close to the trigger for safety reasons but I found I inadvertently switched the machine off mid-cut a couple of times. My biggest gripe is starting it. The pull cord handle is quite slippy so grip gloves are advisable or it slips out of the hand on recoil which can be painful. Also, after a few pulls, if it fails to start, the build-up of engine compression causes it to occasionally recoil quite violently which can really hurt! Not good. To conclude, great value for money and seems robust, but that start issue makes me very wary of it. Shame really!

Great product and brilliant customer service. Would buy again from seller

So I brought this initially I was very happy a first you and did exactly what it was mentioned to do. However during first use the harness that attaches to the multi tool failed. The stitches coming undone. But non the less this was a minor defect that I managed to fix. So overall I was happy starts not problem and seem pretty reliable Upon coming to use this item the second time the throttle had broke. And is no longer of use. The accelerator seems to have seized and engine now revs uncontrollably. this was with 30 days of purchase. I don’t know if I got unlucky with this product or it’s a recurring problem with this product. BUYER BEWARE
