A bit of a hefty beast, but better than the petrol one I have, given up on that as it always put up a fight to start. The motor weighs on you after a while, good excuse for tea, but on the whole it did the job quick. The cords do get stuck from time to time which means a quick strip down, no tools needed and I used the whole cords up on the ground I was clearing. I have not loaded the new cords but there are 2 to fit that run in opposite directions on the spinner, this should prove interesting on the day..

This is only suitable for tall people - above 6 feet. It is not height adjustable and the switch is at the top end by the motor meaning that the upper hand has to be held unnaturally high up with the arm at a peculiar angle. This is ok for a few minutes but this is a powerful machine capable of large jobs and needs to be comfortable to use for long periods. It is of good quality and consequently it is quite heavy as would be expected for a 600w electric motor but the ergonomics are just wrong unless the user is 6 ft+. Ideally the shaft should be adjustable length but the flexible drive shaft from the motor to the cutting head makes this impossible.

Bought this to tackle my jungle, done the job a treat. Very powerful and good value for money. If I have one criticism it is this, after a lot of use you may find the bump feed doesn't work, this is because it is clogged with grass. Loosen the nut use a small screwdriver clean it out and it will be fine.

Very good trimmer, powerful and is excellent quality. I did find it quite heavy in extended use even when using the shoulder strap. Also the line feed is quite complicated and `bump` feed is not that smooth it has stuck on me a couple of times

It is easy to assemble and seems well built and powerful BUT there are NO instructions as to best method of using it and simple things like how to release more line cable which is very frustrating and makes it a question of trial and error.
