McCulloch Cabrio 300 Strimmer and Echo ES-2400 Blower

Two mediocre homeowner machines, the McCulloch is the machine the local Church owns, and the Echo is something I bought second hand. I wouldn't reccomend either, the McCulloch is way too heavy and the head which comes with it is a nightmare, I swapped the head to an Oregon Standard Manual head which is what's on it in the video. The blower isn't particuarly powerful, though I wasn't really using it on a lot of leaves, and the materials used are just cheapish plastic. If I had to give a verdict I would get neither of these products new and instead get a Shindaiwa C350 and a Shindaiwa EB2510.

If I were you, instead of getting the C350 which hasn't been produced in three years, I'd get the Shindaiwa T282X which I just got, and the Shindaiwa EB633RT backpack. Both very nice machines, and they're not very expensive.

@Zaxis450lc It's hard to tell when these machines are avaliable, there is a quantity of new C350's on eBay however Shindaiwa don't seem to be very active in the UK. I'm thinking of getting the Shindaiwa M232 multi-tool and the strimmer and hedge trimmer attachments, what d'you think? I'll have to try out a backpack blower sometime they look the business.

Good thing about these two machines though are that they're reliable starters
