    My mowers always cop a hiding, they earn me a lot of money and retire early to be the roughy mower, a little more care is taken with the snipper though, they can become unreliable if you don't give them a good blow down every week

    On first pull? That made me laugh. He couldn't even get it to misfire. I cleaned the plug and drained the bowl on the carby, but it still wouldn't fire. Just a joke he even thinks to sell something in that condition. Talk about a beer money lawn grub, the guy was half pissed and the rest of his gear was crap. Can you imagine how often the oil and air filter were changed?
    Customers look at your gear, I wouldn't ever have junk on my truck. Needless to say, it will break down and cost you more in lost time than it is worth.

    Wonder if you get your money back if it doesn't start first pull?

    this would have to be one of the crapiest most over priced trailers i have ever seen

    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you

    Pity anyone who buys one of those thinking they are genuine Honda mowers. EBay sellers should not be permitted to use misleading titles like that.
