"See, I am going to say the opposite of Peter.... I had a small gardening business, we primarilly looked after flower beds and that kind of thing, but as part of that did a fair bit of mowing.
When I started I couldnt justify a new mower (one…"

"Thanks- I just cant justify the outlay anymore for something that keeps needing to be repaired/ after a year.I spent 1800 on the legacy and 950 on the SMP- both of which went wrong within a year- the legacy I had repaire but the SMP is basically…"
"Yes we would not buy wiebang. Best mulching mower on the market is the Honda HRX537 HY we run 3 commercially and will collect. We have tried them all!
Nice to use, light,BBC variable speed .
DO NOT BUY a used mower why would anyone sell a a…"
"Thanks Peter, this is the kind of solid advice I like to hear. I was leaning towards the Stihl just on the basis that there are that many positive reviews out there, so this helps!
"
"Kevin, we have had the Stihl for around 5 years used commercially, been faultless , easy to use and light.
The dealer we bought it from who is our main supplier and who we buy a lot of kit from is also a Toro dealer and told us to buy the Stihl…"
I've had a read through various forums and through the archives here and there's plenty of talk about the Stihl scarifiers but not much on Toro. Most of my local dealers seem to stock Toro and I spoke with one this morning who said they've sold well…

Hi Gareth,
Thank you for comment on wrought iron gate. This is being shown at the North Somerset show tomorrow alongside b'smithing demos and competitions. Nathan always pleased when I report feedback. He's a bit of a caveman and hates computers but he is considering getting to grips with the internet soon as even his business contacts are preferring to communicate or show info online. Hope to get him on here at that point.
Good luck on LJ
Helen
