Not yet but can see me buying a long reach in the next fortnight so I'm watching this thread pretty attentively!!
I have a 52 cc brushcutter which is a great, economical, relatively lightweight piece of kit but has gone through 2 engines in 5 years one at my cost and having to wait many many months for the said engine from Maruyama has put me off of the brand, meaning that i will probably never buy again. It was in employees' hands but no other machines including the inexpensive kawasaki range have had this problem! My go to brushcutter has been the BK53ED which i think is going out of production, sob! Such great value.
I am not a huge Stihl fan ( largely also overpriced IMO) but do rate the long reach combo kit and the magnum blowers.
We bought the Maruyama Kombi 25cc about 5 years ago mainly for the landscape /city blalde attachment only available with Maruyama back then ,also got the strimmer head and hedge cutter attachments.
It was the go to strimmer for two seasons , strimmer light and well balanced , landscape blade nice to use when you are used to it , the hedge cutter attachment awkward too top heavy ,the dedicated version I'd hope would be better balanced.
For the last few years more occaisional use still running fine no issues certainly old school feel to it. Would probably have bought more of their kit , can't fault it really outlasted other 25cc machines ,but no dealer within 50 mileas , we get good rates/easy parts / compatability with battery kit from Stihl so have stuck with them.
