Yesterday I sliced the wire on my electric hedgecutter so have decided to buy a petrol one.Any good quality,lighter weight ones anyone can recommend?Just a thought,always use a circuit breaker,I always do.Very glad I did yesterday.I prided myself on not having many mishaps but yesterday was concentrating more on the hedge than on the tool.
The original hayter with the briggs and stratton engine was bombproof, but the new ones are not a patch on them. I used hayters for years, then I tried a honda proffesional with the 21" cut. So much lighter and easier to use. 8 years later and it still going strong.

You wouldn't think it was so difficult to make a competitively priced lawnmower that was simple and robust. Certainly I agree with Betula about Mountfields. We bought one that lasted only about three seasons of not very hard usage before it got beyond economic repair. Yet Mountfield too was once a respected name.
