Multitool - hedge trimmer, chainsaw, bush cutter and strimmer

ados42

I'm looking at buying one of these to keep the bushes and small trees in check in an area of garden. I'm currently considering a Draper petrol model (around £200). Does anybody have experience and advice regarding these machines?
I know a Stihl machine would probably be much better but I don't want to spend that type of money. Cheap ones seem to be available, but I'm dubious regarding their longevity.

I use Stihl for commercial use as it stands up to abuse very well and spares are easily available. The draper one should be fine for domestic occasional use as long as you don’t abuse it trying to cut branches with the hedge trimmer and keep it well lubricated. Check for spares availability on the Draper as you end up throwing away the cheaper ones since you can’t get spares. Worth a look at what screwfix offer as I’ve found their kit to be decent. Plenty of reviews to consider if you want the views of owners. https://www.screwfix.com/p/titan-ttk587gdo-25-4cc-petrol-landscaping-multi-tool/48423
