Happy chappy – I got given a 52cc pole chainsaw for helping them shift some stuff into a unit, only used once! Didn't expect it, and couldn't say no! Gotta say.. after using it I'm pretty impressed. Saw a Youtube vid on how to operate it, no worries. Could be lighter, but I can live with that it's got the grunt! Show details
Kik-butt Mega Machine – Had my 52cc 7in1 for 8 years. Today I noticed the fuel tank inlet rubber was leaking. First time ever I have had to order a new part. Living on average this machine has been tested to its extreme. Snippering, blading, hedging, chainsawing it has done it all. Awesome machine. Look after your gear and it will last many long times. Be sure to use it safely and with PPE. ( don’t work off milk crates) Show details
Discombobulated – Heavy on one end.Handle spins around and throttle sticks. Rusting any part that gets wet. Would prefer better balanced product as these tools are downright dangerous if on a ladder or roof or even a milk crate. When tools are well balanced your mind is on the job at hand not the flaws with tools. Show details

Multi tool pole assembly – My troubles started with attempts to attach the pole extension. Very difficult to attach and remov. Does not work. Don't buy it.
Kick-butt Gardening Accessory – Hi Gang, Just wanted to leave some extra feedback for your testimonial page. I just bought the 7 in 1 Multitool 65 cc outfit Dingo Tools. What a kick-but piece of work. It's fantastic! I've owned Stihl Brushcutters and Echo Cutters etc. and while they are good....this Dingo thing blows them to the weeds!!! When I opened the box I was first… Read more
struck by the solidity of the fittings BUT when I fired the thing up...
The raw power was unbelievable. I haven't tried my pole saw or hedge trimmer attachments yet but
I am more than impressed so far. I will tell all my mates because as I am in retail outdoor sales also, I know the value of customer recommendation.
Thanks again, Neil , Hobart TAS
It's great I like it – It does exactly what I want it to do every time ,it seems strong and powerful . Starts first every time comes with spare chain easy to assemble. I find it a very handy tool around the house with hi edges and not climbing ladders. I will look at there other products Overall good machine and good price.
Perfect – I bought one on eBay .it was one of the best things l have bought, its got the power too do the job l have to do with easy!! I was going to climb the tree witch l have done before. The pole saw makes it easier and safer, quicker. "Buy it "now with Confidence it works. I was empressed in the professional way it was packed and delivered, Well. Done. IT did every thing it said it would. it delivered.
I reiterate - rubbish equipment! Don't buy! – I commented in January 2013 regarding this equipment and had numerous replies from the owners. Yes, machinery is made in China - good equipment that has quality control and built to last. E.g stihl, tanaka, shindaiwa. These are machines that are quality and made to last. Your rubbish machinery is mass produced and cheap rubbish. I'll make it easy… Read more
for you [name removed] - stihl 5 piece multi I spent $2480 not one problem everyday use for 2 years. Dingo $280 7 piece - used twice and fell apart, didn't start rattled to high heaven, pieces fell off etc. You are comically trying to compare a Hyundai to a Ferrari. Money buys quality! Your 7 in 1 multi machine is rubbish! End of section! Don't buy!
Great Tool – I would highly recommend this machine to anyone who has cocos palms and other tall trees it has been great for us and the multi tool functions is of great use also. The company we bought it through were also great sellers to deal with very helpful and prompt service. Inexpensive powerful and reliable.
Impossible – DO NOT EVER buy from suppliers previously mentioned. They never contact and will be a matter for a n.s.w case in the consumer and tenancies tribunal. The dingo may be a great product but was never supplied. Seriously if the dingo company is reading any of this please try and contact me and I can tell you my experience DO NOT PURCHASE!!!! See all please try and contact supplier and you will find out
Better Then I Expected And A Very Good Machine For The Money 5 Stars For Sure – I bought this machine and it is good, i have a few of the dingo products and they are great, i bought this one for the multifunction 's that this tool offers it has everything in one machine, which is awesome. Yes it is very powerful and probably to powerful as i am quite a small but on the other hand it is better to have more power then you… Read more
need. As a woman i probably would buy the Dingo 33cc product the one called the Ultralite but i am still very happy with this tool they keep making the quality better and better.
I have had parts sent to me like a chain etc for my chainsaw and also help from the company over the telephone with questions, i think these guys are great and i will support them over Bunnings Warehouse any old time.. Keep them coming Mega :) Good Quality Finish And Well built - Comapny Reliable That Sell It And Have Always Offered Great Service. Nothing At All Good Product The Only Thing Is It Is Very Powerful For Me Being A Little Lady :)
good quality product i have bought 2 of them – I have bought two of these products and i have found them good for the price, yes they are a bit heavier then normal but you have to remember they are 52cc so you have to expect that. I have bought a weed eater from mitre10 and paid the same amount for a engine for half the power and only 2 attachments, the difference with this one, i received 7… Read more
attachments which are good and easy to change, i have noticed they have lighter one called a ultralight now, being a smaller motor which would be lighter but i like the power so that is why i bought the 52cc, these are good ! i am happy and will be back. powerful and strong with lots of attachments larger engine makes the unit a bit heavier but a good strong motor

Know better, choose better.
Terrific value – I have had this machine for a week now and have used the trimmer, the chain saw and the hedger. I was really surprised at the performance given the relative low price. The power of the two stroke 52cc is awsome and it starts relatively easy every time. The manuals are online and easy to download, i hade a question and it was answered, I am… Read more
satisfied I got what I paid for, actually it exceeded my expectations. With regards to some of the reviews I have read I say this. Please read the instructions and then use a little mechanical sense to work things out and you will find the solutions to the problem,
If you are looking for a good all rounder with a bit of grunt and not for a specific machine that you expect to last 20 years then give this a try,,, its worth it. Powerful and inexpensive Nothing really except a little thirsty
Time wasting excercise – Dingo 52cc 5in-1 Hedge Trimmer Brush Cutter Pole Pruner Chainsaw You get what you pay for certainly becomes true with this product, After a frustrating ½ an hour trying to start the unit on its first use we realised when the chock is pushed to it’s on position, it’s actually off & vica versa, once this is sorted the engine starts quite easy… Read more
with just a few pulls.
We have quite a few pittosporums in the back yard that I normally would need to set up 2 ladders and a plank between them to trim as they are about 3meters high, so we installed a 1m extension the Dingo and the required hedge trimmer attachment, but on our first attempt the engine would only rev to about its half way mark, so after about 15mins of fuel adjustment tuning we headed back to give it another go.
Every time we tried to trim foliage, the handle and throttle assembly would spin around on the shaft to the point where the unit was now upside-down, the only way we could stop this was to place a piece of bicycle tube between aluminium shaft and handle / throttle assembly and retighten the screws.
After all these efforts to get the job done and try out the machine we decided to pull out the ladders, electric hedge trimmer and had the job done within an hour.
That was in July 2011, yesterday a friend needed to trim some Cyprus trees and asked if he could take the dingo out of storage & borrow it, I gave it to him on the condition it never came back, The first phone call was, “been trying to get it to run for the last hour” I said “remember the chock is [censored word removed] about” ! Next phone call “I got half way through a 2 inch branch, the chain stopped and it’s making a strange noise, can you come & fix” after disassembly & close inspection, the gears were not mashing properly in the chain saw gearbox & stripped all the teeth, this was caused by poor manufacturing & Quality control.
Thie engine has had about 30 minutes run time & 5mins work time.
On Mega Machine Warehouse they say “why would you buy a Stihl or Husqvarna when you can buy this for a ¼ the price? My answer “because they simply work”. Price, Starts Easy. Manufacturing Defects, Quality Control,

Awesome Machine by Dingo – second purchase this year of the dingo brushcutter, just love it mate, and the girls that work at mega are great they supply lots of spares and are super helpful on the phone. if you want a awesome machine and goes like a total beast, I recommend it to anyone, great aussie product power and price nothing
Dingo- What was good about it? – Cheap and lacking sophistication of any kind.I really can't say much about the build quality and I'm learning to live with the oil cap vibrating loose and dumping chain oil on my helmet and goggles.Wish I could stop the screws from working them selves loose but I've been told loctite might do the trick.That hedge trimmer is a beauty,when it… Read more

What really should have kept me away was the number of neutral and negative comments on the suppliers ebay site.

Dingo Tools 5 in 1 Multitool – Recently brought the Dingo 5 in 1 multitool from mega machinery warehouse, $199.00 delivered. I have to say for the money it is an excellent little tool does all the jobs quite well all attachments are practical and functional. There seem to be a few negative reviews getting about but I truly believe these reviews are from people that buy cheap… Read more · 2
and expect a Stihl or Husqvana. My experience has been very positive took for days to post item all the bits where there nothing missing downloaded the manual from there website expanded the set up and first start procedure well. Remember if you buy cheap expect cheap yes there are some flimsy parts and plastic instead of steel but with a little bit more care they do the same job. I would recommend for any home gardener, maintain it properly and you will have a very nice cheap machine.
Fantastic value for money – First of all let me say that I am we'll aware of the old saying, you get what you pay for and, yes, you certainly can pay more. A lot more and, no doubt, get great quality. But if you're like me and only need this sort of equipment for occasional use, then the Dingo, mine is the 5 in 1 pole multitool, will do the same job for very little money. I… Read more · 1
paid $152.00 including shipping. OK nothing's perfect at this price level and there are a couple of things that could improve. The instruction manual (online version only available) could be better written and would have been much better with colour photos instead of black and white but that's not a biggie. My questions were promptly answered by Megamachine Warehouse so no problem.
One nit pick I have however with them is they say, on their website, that a range of instructional videos are available. Great I thought. I'm the kind of guy who likes to know as much as possible before I use new equipment. Well, there aren't any videos on the website. Coming soon it says. I get the feeling however that I won't be holding my breath for that one. So far I've only used the chain saw and the whipper snipper. Fantastic. The chain came off at one stage but that was my fault for not noticing that it had come a bit loose. No problem though. Put it back and tensioned it properly and bingo. Away we went.
The other things worth mentioning are the weight and the noise. To my surprise both are reasonable. I actually didn't wear the supplied ear protection, because, to be honest it was pretty quiet and, unless you're using for hours not much of a problem at all. Regarding the weight, again no problem. Personally I'd rather have the 52cc machine and a little extra weight than a 33cc machine even if it would be a bit lighter. All in all I'm a happy camper. But I do recommend you read the instructions carefully, even if they are a bit strangely written at times. Some of the critical reviews I've read sound to me as if the instructions have been either scimmed or completely ignored. A bargain. Not for trade use obviously.
Dingo (from Megamachinewarehouse) 7 in 1 Multi Tool – I have just bought, and received, this item from Megamachinewarehouse, from ebay. I have to say that, whilst I was a little apprehensive about buying it, I am staggered at the superb quality, great service, and extremely good value (I paid $147, including delivery - a snip!). The machine was delivered very quickly (i.e. within a week). … Read more · 3
Communication with Megamachinewarehouse has been excellent!
The machine seems to be very well made and of very good quality. It was packed well. It was delivered safely. Nothing was missing. Nothing was loose. The instructions (which you have to download - eeks!) are fine.
Yes, the chain saw bar oil reservoir leaks a little oil, but who really cares? I suspect fitting a seal to the cap would solve that problem! Yes, the engine smokes a little, but who cares? Mix the correct fuel/oil mixture and adjust the carb! (as Christine kindly, and very politely, pointed out in her reply above). It would seem, to me, that some level of mechanical aptitude is needed to address some of the alleged issues with such a machine. Isn't that part of the fun of owning one?
I did ask (by email) why there wasn't another coupling to extend the machine to its fullest extent (i.e. 3 extension bars but only 2 couplings). They IMMEDIATELY apologised and IMMEDIATELY agreed to send me another one, for free (I offered to pay for it because, I suspect, there shouldn't actually be another one!)! Now that's what I call excellent sevice! Absolutely NO QUIBBLING!
I have used the machine to lop several trees, trim several bushes, and trim several hedges. It starts first time (easily) and runs well (continuously). It fulfuls its role (as it states on the box!) admirably!
And, before anyone accuses me of working for the supplier, I have absolutely NOTHING to do with them, apart from being a very happy customer and delighted with their product, value and service!
To those who say "buy a Stihl", I say you're not comparing apples with apples. An equivalent Stihl would cost many times the price. This is a very well made machine, at an extremely low, relative, price, sold by a totally legitimate company, who are willing to warrent their product and to address legitimate concerns (if you can be bothered to ask them) - as testified by Christine's polite answers to previous concerns here.
Good on them! I would not hesitate to buy more of their products (and, in fact, I have!) or to heartily recommend them and thier products to others!.
Sorry, guys and gals, but I hope my review puts previous negative comments into a little bit more of a perspective?
I wouldn't normally devote my time to do this, but I was dismayed to see the negative comments and wished to offer a balancing view - such is my satisfaction with their product, value and service. Astounding value. Good quality. Extremely quick delivery. Very responsive service. Nothing (so far). But, if there was, I'm sure they would help me out!
Not happy – Not happy with the tool I purchased back in feb this year. Each time i have used the chainsaw attachment the extention pole has always turned out of alignment meaning i have to turn off the tool and straighten up the tool then it just does the same thing again. The hedge trimmer no longer works will start but blades just don't do anythink. No… Read more
matter what tool i use it is like the throttle is stuck on which dangerour as tools are always live. The Brushcutter is about the only thing that i have been happy with but same thing it is always live even when i don't have finger on the throttle. Is there an e-mail address or phone number that i can contact these guys on as i am finding it hard to get hold of anyone
shaun35 did you happen to get any information on where to contact Dingo tools we are having problems trying to find a service centre for them...
Fantastic & Reliable Have Just Bought Another One For My Sister! "A Powerful Machine" – I purchased this product a couple months ago as I have a inner city property and I don’t have a lot room for different tools, so I was looking for something that was a good all rounder, I saw the advertisement on eBay and thought I would try out this new Dingo Tool product. I must admit I wasn’t expecting to much, as the price was very… Read more · 10
affordable and too cheap, if you know what I mean, but when it arrived I was blown away, so many different attachments and choices and it was delivered to my door just under a week.
When I first started the Dingo Tool it started in 2 pulls, I have used it for cutting trees with the chainsaw and also the hedge trimmer, I also have edged all the drive way, my sister borrowed it for a day, and after she used it, she had to have one, so I have just bought her a new one also, which came in under a week again.
I will be buying more of the Dingo Products that I need if they come out, Great works guys, thank you for giving me a top little machine that is going to last me for years and years, I will recommend you to all my friends and your machine speaks for it's self, "Awesome" Powerful, Reliable, Very Affordable, Better Then I Expected For The Price, Good After Sales Service! Wish They Had More Products To Buy!
