Hi folks,
I'm looking into buying a new mower and was wondering if the qualcast cylinder was any good?
a few points:
1) I previously used an electric mower, but now want to switch to petrol because I need to cut the lawn more quickly/regularly. Are petrol, and particularly qualcast cylinder ones, reliable? Nothing much has gone wrong with my previous electric mowers, and I don't know much about engines. Do they need a lot of maintainence/ regular serving?
2) Should I avoid buying a second hand petrol mower? There seem to be lots for sale, and if the qualcast cylinders are good quality, and easy to get parts for, might it be worth it?
3) I was looking to buy an electric lawn raker, but the qualcast cylinder has a scarifying cassette attachment. Are they any good? I was thinking it would be cheaper, and take up less space, if I spent the money on an attachment. Also, it would be petrol powered and so might do a better job.
any guidance would be appreciated, thanks.
