  • Mows great

wow! This is a reaper from hell, the Grim Reaper's own scythe! What violence! We have those bamboo lanterns in the garden, accidentally hit him with this thing: snap! Bamboo stock in half! Moments later I came across the slide: branch! Piece out! You can just cut down entire forests with this! All this with the cable! I don't dare to put the knives on it, I don't trust myself with so much power, I think a person is not ready for that much oempf.. So much ultimate power concentrated in a button in your hand changes you for life.

Great device.

A piece of land with high grass and thin branches mowed, only using the blade. Looking awesome. Goes fast, device is quite heavy, so take rest breaks. Can't give a sensible answer about durability, too short in use. Added 2 photos, 1 before mowing and 1 after.

  • you can't lock the controller

Nice brushcutter. Use it for tall grass (about 40-50 cm) and sturdy weeds. Even with the rope I can get through it well and with the knife all the way. The brushcutter makes little noise, so hearing protection is not necessary. Also nice that it is so light, it saves a lot for your back and neck. The only drawback I think is that you have to continuously squeeze the handle to keep it going. After a while you get a cramp in your hand, because it is quite a squeeze. I solved this myself by securing the handle with a tie wrap, because I have quite a meadow to mow and sometimes mow for 3-4 hours at a time. But for small areas, that wouldn't be necessary.
