Husqvarna taken over by Flymo?

[Paddler]

I was in a local garden machinery specialist today, having gone there specifically to compare husqvarna V stihl and they said they had stopped stocking Husqvarna as they had been taken over by Flymo and everything was "plastic"

 

They are still listed on the Husky site as stockists though.

 

Any opinions, have they gone downhill?

Husky own flymo and have done for a few years. I don't know why your dealer would stop stocking huskies as they make the better 50-60cc saws, and own the electronic carb systems. Unless your dealer isn't set up for dealing with e-carbs, but the whole Stihl range is switching over so they'll have no choice.

Which means that Husky now owns Flymo, and has been since 2006. Flymo is just one of a lot of brands that Husky currently owns.

 

That "specialst" is full of BS, absolutely nothing is like he says.

 

I don't know how the sales organization is in the UK, but that has nothing to do with the ownership of the brands.
