Having had a painfull experience with a brushcutter that refused to start as often as not, I gave the machine a mental kick and decided to try another make. So, via Amazon, I studied the looks of the Draper 45577 Petrol Brushcutter and decided, on the strength of previous experience with Draper tools, to give this machine a home. Hence, I'm delighted to say that starting it up is a doddle, this has an engine that's just waiting to start and run. Usually on the third pull from cold. When I think of the hours I wasted trying to start my previous brushcutter! Also I like the build, good and solid. This Draper will run smoothly at less than full revs, handy when negotiating awkward places, unlike my previous machine which oiled everything up if not at full revs. It is a little heavy, but then I'm getting on a bit! Whether using the brushcutter or the line, there's power enough. As with all modern equipment, the cutting guard is a bit too large but one just has to get used to it. Expect to spend some time setting everything up to your liking - it's worth it.
