I just wanted to report that I took the plunge and bought the cheapest
petrol one I could find at B&Q at £80 (a McCulloch).

I recently bought the same model - but from Homebase. I also waited for one
of their 10% days so got it slightly cheaper.

This thing ATE my garden - fantastic.

Now go out and buy some extra strimming line as what came with the strimmer
won't last very long at all. :-(

It's easy to do grass edges, btw. Just rotate the whole thing around.

Have fun....and remember those goggles.....

And ear defenders. I just had my hearing tested and I have a permanent problme
in one ear froma torn plastic cover on the ear defender. The man who tested me
told me of a client who had nearly gone completely deaf in one use of a hedge
cutter. Presumably this was the culmination of many years use.
