This is my second machine of the brand, excellent value for money, the most: price, engine power, problem-free start, easily removable for transport. Cons: noisy (always use headphones or anti noise protection!) Strong engine compresses the launch and vibrates (but not annoying in the end). This is not a professional machine (but for the price you this is quite normal) thus intended for use few hours a week (interviews even by a large garden). I not nutilise original Roto-son head, but a much more efficient aluminum stranded.
