Cheap combi system, Worth a go???

[plippy]

1it'll come with a 12 month manufacturers warranty,,, SO, IF it does break after 5 mins as some predict it'll be covered under warranty,,

 

personally I say go for it,,, for £200 you can't go wrong...

 

id agree, ive got one arriving this week and it comes with a year warranty:thumbup1:

If you can get second hand stihl I would Liam.

Having said that theres a second hand makita that could be worth a look;

Go for it.

 

I have two Stihl combi's, but have had nothing but trouble from the KM130R, its been back to the dealer several times and finally went back to stihl for a full strip down and rebuild. Its a great tool, but not as reliable as the other Stihl gear we have.

i cant afford a stihl combi system and to be honest the old man bearly uses his and i hate hedge cutting, ive got a small job to use it on and that will easily pay for it

I didnt end up getting one, Give me a ring when you have used it Phil and let me know what its like pal

 

Check what mix to use in it aswell pal, Some of the cheaper ones are 30:1 mix instead of our normal 50:1
