Husqvarna 525RS

I’m on a rural property and have used this mostly so far to clear blackberry bushes that are years old with long thick canes, over my head in height. Using the blade, it cuts through it all with ease. Also cleared a whole lot (>300m2) of periwinkle weed with it. I recently got a saw blade and have cut small bushes with it.

It’s comfortable to use (I have the RS which has the harness), and starts easy every time, maybe 2-3 pulls on choke then a couple to start.

It’s also surprisingly quiet, more of a softer sound than I expected.

I’m very happy with it. I just need to work out how to clean all the dried up grass off it that’s glued on.

Makes light work of tall grass and shrubs. The harness holds the brushcutter comfortably while you work the offset handles, sweeping away tall grass like a pro - pretty imoressed. I've not liked using line cutters, but with this brushcutter and blade, it is so comfortable and easy, and slices through the tall stuff that would have had me replacing lines over and over again. It's good on fuel too!. It does cost a bit, but I am very impressed. Easy to start ! Bonus, I would recommend this one. Best line trimmer/brushcutter I've ever owned.
