I need a pole saw to trim a large tree in my front yard. As I am just starting out, I don't have one in my arsenel yet. I can hire one for around $110 a day or buy a cheapie from ebay for around $200 (Dingo Tools).

Has anyone heard any stories regarding Dingo Tools?

I figure if it gets me through the job I need to do at home, and a couple of paid jobs, I can eventually get a good one when this one gives up the ghost.
