Used one for about 2 years now professionally and haven't had a problem with it. Puts some of our Stihls to shame

[@WoolysWorld]

It's a good machine for the money

[@MyClutteredGarage]

As much as I hate using string trimmers, that's a nice machine! Especially with the brush cutter attachment.

[@WoolysWorld]

It sure is, strimmers are a necessary evil I think, it's a bit like power hosing, you just get in the Grove and go for it,

[@ronpatterson6420]

I hear ya, I haven't had any of my saws and power equipment professionally serviced. They had warranties but I need them and when they have issues I fix them myself. So use them, and fix them. Great video as always!

[@WoolysWorld]

cheers man, i should say ive never even serviced it myself!! lol

[@justinf1343]

Thanks for sharing your experience of this machine. I have just ordered the Hyundai multi tool hedge cutter / pole pruner and you have put my mind at rest. Thanks

[@WoolysWorld]

I've been looking at those recently, they seem an excellent job

[@dwoodsky]

Thanks for posting this, I've been umming and ahhing about buying one for a while down to the durability and power, will be getting one soon, very helpful :)

[@WoolysWorld]

A very good machine, I ended up selling it and upgrading to a honda , wasn't much of an upgrade now that I think of it , but the Hyundai is still going strong with its new owner

[@wpog8453]

If you think that Oregon blade is awesome, you should get a Brush Destructor blade. I do this commercially and its far superior to any brush cutter blade on the market. A little pricey but worth every penny. You'd be amazed what it will do on that big Hyundai.

[@WoolysWorld]

sounds cool, i just had a little google there

Mate - that video is awesome. Subscribed to the channel on the back of it. Almost identical to my World, garden-wise, and was looking at the Hyundai anyway - this vid absolutely sealed it for me. The new equivalent is £220, and whilst I WANTED a Honda (Biker...... of a certain age) I've already fallen in love with my Hyundai air compressor - and this will be my next purchase. Dad was from Tipp (Clogheen), and most of my family are there. I'll always take an Irishman's advice over any other 😉. Nice one.

[@WoolysWorld]

Lol a great machine, especially for the money, though I have since sold it and bought a Honda! Get the Oregon one for all mulching disk, it will change your life

[@WoodsTreeFarm]

wow. looks like a pretty capable brush cutter. Good video, Wooly. Take care!

[@WoolysWorld]

cheers buddy

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? God less you!!! That machine is a beast for sure. I really like the mulching blade on it!! Thanks for posting and take 'er easy!!!

[@WoolysWorld]

Thanks 👍

[@spaceted3977]

I had a Stihl Brush cutter. When the cord breaks you have to buy a module which is horribly expensive !!! And to replace the fuel pipes on my Husquavarna chain saw meant pulling the whole chainsaw to bits, the petrol pipe actually goes through the crankcase which is insane !!!! I now have a Hyundai electric chainsaw and a small Esme arborists petrol chainsaw. Its easy to replace the petrol pipes and the pull cord on the cheaper ones. Inside the machines are identical. You are paying a lot of money for the top brand names to be on the outer plastic case of your gardening equipment. Me, I prefer a good quality machine with a brand name I can trust. My Hyundai chainsaw is awesome an it looks fantastic !!!!! I also have a Titan electric chainsaw and I shan't be buying any more of the so called top brands again !!!

[@WoolysWorld]

with some of the stuff yes i completely agree , but when it comes to bigger machines like chainsaws etc i think for something that you want to last a life time its best to stick with big named brands like husqvarna

[@ianharrison6201]

Hi great review i was wondering how the honda compares to the hyundai after using both machines.Your thoughts would be much appreciated.Cheers Ian.

[@WoolysWorld]

Great Question, i comes down to quality and longevity i think . the hyundai is a great machine, but the parts etc are not as good quality as the honda , both perform very well and after 4 years the hyundai was still going great but i did notice more and more repairs etc. ive only had the honda year so i hasn't had the same abuse as the hyundai . over all in the short term they are both the same, im hoping that the honda will be a machine for life , that was the biggest reason for the change. powerwise i dont see any difference, the honda is quieter

[@ianharrison6201]

@@WoolysWorld Thanks thats great would the hyundai bog down in just thick long grass at all or always enough power to handle all grass.cheers buddy.

You need a forestry mulcher for that.

[@WoolysWorld]

I used the Oregon one for all mulching head, worked great

[@hbsong9964]

Update: Just used this to clear my garden.. hated the harness by Hyundai, it loosens then falls off. Question: why is the red blade you use better? I'm using the flat 3 spoke blade which came with the brushcutter..

[@WoolysWorld]

It's a mulching blade , I highly recommend it, unreal . I bought an aftermarket Oregon harness on Amazon, great job

Looks like a blue Stihl brush cutter, and you don't get much change out of £700 for one of them.

Yep, I'd like to try a good pro one to see the difference, the mulcher is amazing though

You can clip the harness in in multiple places , makes it easier to balance for different types of jobs

Hey Mate, I got a question about the connection. U know were u connect the cutting part to the power unit. How strong is the connection? Is there any movement in it? Did it maybe started over time? Cheers and thanks a lot for doing this review. Much appreciated :)

[@WoolysWorld]

where the shaft comes in half for storage etc? ive had no issues with it at all no movement etc, but i always keep it together

[@PzFwTu]

@@WoolysWorld Yeah exactly! Okay, guess I just give a shot. Luckily they're not too expensive. Just can't afford the Stihl ones.

[@WoolysWorld]

Me neither, I've abused the hell out of this, had a bit of a scare there, thought I'd broke it , but it turned out a fuel line had broke

Man!! It kicks ass, I found that you didn't need to go full throttle with the mulching blades on about 2/3 I'd enough, bug have a play with it, see how you feel, let me know

[@alexbeedie6940]

Looks identical to the still design I'm assuming they bought the patient on an older model.

[@WoolysWorld]

They might have, but I find that a lot of these machines have very similar designs

[@foggerpro9718]

Does anyone know If this model could take a 350mm blade? It looks like the guard has been taken off in this video.... just wondering if anyone has used with big blade and how it handled it.

[@WoolysWorld]

Well, I broke the guard of this my smashing something with the Oregon one for all mulching blade, it's the heaviest blade I put on it, it handled it really well, I did use the big circular saw type blade but I don't know what size it was

[@pget8462]

I've been increasingly surprised by the quality Hyundai offers for a relatively low price. Furthermore, if something happens, it is very easy and quick to get cheap replacement spare parts through specialized networks (like SWAP). The global design of their models looks roughly like cheap chinese ones, but their production standards and final quality and durability seem to be much higher (composition of the alloys ?, composition of the plastic pieces ?). I suspect Hyundai specs are above average. A very good compromise between overpriced hardware and low quality products which wear quickly and break without notice..

[@WoolysWorld]

thanks man, and yes same here, i was suprised . have you used any of their other equipment?

[@pget8462]

@@WoolysWorld Yes. I've been using a HDBT45 rather intensively for more than 3 years now, either on my estate or on the permacultural market garden of my daughter. Permaculture requires a lot a somewhat dried vegetal debris to enrich the soil, so that, most of the time, I use the brushcutter in 'mulching' mode to produce them from grass or leaves (with a three level 3 mm nylon threads head) which is much more power demanding than the simple 'cutting' mode. My HDBT never failed to provide tons of food for the eathworms and bacteria, and clean places for the humans. In return, I very much take care of it (gear box greasing, air filter cleaning, carburetor adjustments, cables oiling, ...), and it seems to work so far for both of us.

[@pncampbell]

Does the anti-vibration system actually work ?
