Our verdict
Punches above its weight on cut width and deck quality. The engine is the weak link — capable but not premium. Good value new, fair value used.

- Steel deck unusual at this price point

Buying second-hand
£130–200 is realistic used. Steel deck means rust is the killer — flip it and inspect the underside thoroughly. Engine starts can degrade over winter; ask the seller to fire it from cold. The 51cm blade is unusual so spares cost more than 46cm rivals — factor that in.
