When I first went self employed, I was on a very small budget. I started with Qualcast and Titan machinery, they did the job, and lasted long enough to allow me move on to professional Husqvarna and Stihl equipment! It does help if you know how to use the tools properly to start with! I was lucky, as I'd worked for gardening companies for many years previously. In my opinion, if you are just starting out, or just doing your own garden, they are worth every penny!!
One of the best videos I've ever seen on TH-cam. No background music to interfere with the presenter's voice, distract or hide the engine sound. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Top marks Mr
I own the 5 in one hedge cutter Strimmer pole saw and use every day on jobs never let me down tiny bit heavy but had it 2 yrs used pretty much every day keeps up with the stihls and the huski I also own for the price you can’t beat it
I use the Chain saws and the 5 in One Strimmer 3&4 years old, still going like new, chain saws are worked to death for 4 months every year, the strimmer about 2 months never miss a beat and start hot or cold 1-2 pulls. Spares are in stock from supplier in Cookstown Northern Ireland. Reply
I use Stihl and Echo mainly, but a few years back i needed to replace an old Echo longreach hedgecutter and fell over at the price. So i opted for a Mitox one as a stop gap and its still going strong, it was around £200 and worth every penny. Although years back i had the Cobra one and it lasted 9 months and was awful.
just looked at the prices and watched the video, these look well worth it for the price for home use. If you accept they will last a couple years and need replacing then they are a fantastic option. The wire brush option on the strimmer is a brill option (wish Stihl did such an option) and would solve a problem I need to fix which is moss build up on the sleepers we have down the sides of our paths / drive
I'm in the market for some machinery. I've never heard of BU-KO. I have Mountfield products and have no complaints. But I'm paying double the price for their 5-1 equipment. BU-KO 5-1 looks decent to be fair. I'm no professional but like decent equipment for a decent price.
Great and thorough review. Glad to have discovered your channel. I bought the backpack version of the 5-in-1 multi-tool. It's really rather heavy to put on, but does the job. I think I'd have been better with the "wand version" of the tool, which you demonstrate here. The engine is terribly smokey, even though I'm using fresh unleaded, the 2-stroke oil that came with it and mixed to the correct proportion in the mixing bottle provided. It's more like a fumigator!
When the video title is Are They Worth It and then the chainsaw summary is "not a bad little chainsaw this" I am almost as lost for words as the guy who said it is.
I’m looking into starting my own landscaping business. I know this stuff is aimed at DIY and is entry level. Would it be safe to say I should bother getting some of these tools?

@@THETATTOOGARDENER83 Actually i have the strimmer model and my mates have stihls which are more expensive and are giving trouble but not with the buko and are unbeatable value for money.
To be honest, I dont like these cheap tools. Better get some good used ones for that money from Stihl, Husqvarna or other brands. These cheap ones wont last long (had to cheap hedge trimmers), and they are loud but no power. But thats just my opinion on that. Everyone should try it themself.
Thanks for your feedback, we appreciate it, we have an onsite engineer who services our tools, so if the owners get them serviced anually they will last a good few years :)

Great advice for any one starting out or doing home gardening.

Power tools like this are perfect for the home owner on a budget!
I liked the wire brush. I've never seen one of them before.
That worked really well on the edges 👍🏼
`they are a great job rob, we have a video on our tiktok channel of someone removing moss with the wire brush
Nice One James looks good for the DIY or new in business and un able to justify the cost of a big name brand Have a good weekend Thanks again
Thanks Darran, yeah perfect for the homeowner 👍🏼
Great for personal uses or as a starter.
Great review James, I agree these types of tools are brilliant for homeowners and personal use, I doubt they'll last long if used commercially thought
Thanks Jordan. Yeah exactly what they have been designed for 👍🏼
Well I've been using the buko petrol strimmer and used alot and no problems and my friends have Stihl strimmers and are giving trouble.

I've got the 56cc blower and it's a great machine so far so good well done BU-KO
Thank you Robert 👍🏼

Never heard of them James, you done a great review for them and they do look ok 💪🏻👏👍
Thanks Nev 👍🏼
Great review James, BU-KO seems like a great option for the homeowner market!
Great video
Thank you H 👍🏼
Love my Monster ChainSAW. Greetings from Germany

They look ok and worked well. Great review. Still lovin my Mitox
Thanks for the great video James :)
🤩🤩🤩
That equipment is good if your starting out and limited at what u can buy it would make you a weeks wage no problem
Ideal for the homeowner and light user 👍🏼
When the video title is Are They Worth It and then the chainsaw summary is "not a bad little chainsaw this" I am almost as lost for words as the guy who said it is.
What are they like on fuel and are they hard to get parts for ?? Or are they spares in common use with other brands ??
do you want to test the brand FUXTEC the garden tools
I’ve never heard of them, you are welcome to email us 👍🏼
Ok, I was joking, got some poles need erecting
came to see the auger drilling holes
I like that blower 👀
Hello
Where would I get parts for Bu-ko chainsaw
Do they come with a basic safety kit
I think so 😂
where are they made please??? Where do you get spares please??
Looks decent gear for the price, I looked online to see the prices.
really are great products for the price range
I’m looking into starting my own landscaping business. I know this stuff is aimed at DIY and is entry level. Would it be safe to say I should bother getting some of these tools?
I don't see why not, plenty of people are earning a living using Hyundai and titan equipment, including me 😊

Wow get me one of those saws how much
Awesome review personally I’d rather pay more for better quality
Yeah if budgets allow 👍🏼
@@MachineryNation true for anyone just starting out they would do a turn
@@THETATTOOGARDENER83
Actually i have the strimmer model and my mates have stihls which are more expensive and are giving trouble but not with the buko and are unbeatable value for money.
Please make a video with a petrol makita chainsaw
I doubt that will happen I’m afraid as Makita have stopped production of petrol machinery, so there won’t be any new ones coming to the market.
I am from denmark and we have petrol makita products
And i have a petrol makita chainsaw
❤😂 Fantastic Review s❤😂😂❤
But instead of that can you make a video with mountfield
I will have a chat with them and see if they would like to make a video 👍🏼
I thought buko meant something else when I googled it 👀
How did I end up here 👄
no scarafier

These are more powerful than most at 52cc giving 3hp (2.2kW) on 40:1 petroil mixture and no louder than my Stihls or Echo, so do your homework.
