Makita EBH341U/L

Heavy- parts wear out very fast – This unit is HEAVY. If your doing this all day your back WILL be sore. Plus the tap and feed head wears out so fast you will be back to buy a new head very soon! Poor build quality!

Outstanding – This is my second 4 stroke brush cutter after having mainly 2 stroke equipment and I couldnt be happier. The build quality on the Makita EBH341L is second to none as is the quality of materials. It is a reasonably weighty machine but you have to expect that with these larger 4 stroke units, the harness helps take care of that extra weight making it a very easy machine to use. Extremely easy starting and very quiet and the subaru EH035 engine delivers lots of grunt across the entire rev range when required. All in all a fantastic, powerful machine well worth the cost I also have a Honda UMK435 unit and can honestly say I believe the Makita is definitely on par with the Honda and feel that the Subaru EH035 delivers more grunt then the Honda GX35 no questions asked.

Excellent – This is my first 4 stroke brush cutter after having mainly 2 stroke equipment and I couldnt be happier. The build quality on the Makita is first rate as is the quality of materials. It is a reasonably weighty machine but the harness takes care of that making it a very easy machine to use. Extremely easy starting and very quiet - almost no need for hearing protection. All in all a fantastic, powerful machine well worth the cost. Build quality, power, low noise. none that I can think of
