Anyone own one? Reviews? I just bought one with a straight shaft trimmer pole saw and extension.. I used the saw some this evening not sure what I think about it yet.. It's heavy expecialy with the extension. I went in to buy a regular extendable pole saw it was ~600 and came out with a saw and a weedeater for 700. I also want to get the hedge trimmer attachment later if I do keep it. He sold me when he said take it and try it you have 7 days to bring it back if you don't like it.

Had mine for 2 years now. Now trouble. Only have the straight shaft trimmer and brush cutter. Both great. Easy to switch. Next on list is the edger and hedge trimmer.

I bought the 110 last month, pole saw and straight shaft trimmer. Heavier than my old Shindaiwa but impressed with the power.
Salesman at Evergreen Tractor talked me out of the 130 and I don't think I would have needed the extra HP.
So far, it's great. Can't decide if next purchase will be the articulating hedge trimmer or power scythe. Any personal insight on those 2 attachments would be greatly appreciated.

I got the 110 also not that impressed with the power with the saw on anyway. I haven't tried the weedeating yet

Some told me a while back that the Stihl and the echo and husvarrna attachment s are all universal and will fit on each other's head. Is that true?

Rocking the 130 for 2+ years now. Never a lick of trouble and it starts within 3 pulls each time.
Have the straight shaft trimmer, extra straight shaft for brush cutter head, extension, pole saw, and swiveling hedge trimmer. All work great however can be heavy when using the extension.
I considered the scythe over the hedge trimmer when I purchased the hedge trimmer and glad I did. I use it to clear a ditch and pond damn both of which have steep inclines. Grass, woody weeds, and small willows all lay down effortlessly and leave a nice finished look. Of course, the less tall woody crap you have the cleaner the finished job looks.
Very impressed with the system and use it weekly around the home, camp, farm, and pond.
Be sure and keep a few extra of the plastic inserts that fit into the end of the attachment that keep it from turning. The tab on them seem to break quite often. Probably go through 4 to 5 of them a year.

Im in my second year with the 130. Got the trimmer, edger, and blower. Its surprisingly light and I have zero complaints.

I have the KM90 with weedeater, pole saw, blower, and that little skill saw blade thingy. I've had it for about two years.
I love it. It's light and has more than enough power. Starts on the first pull more often than not.

I have the KM 56 power head, straight shaft trimmer, edger, and mini-cultivator. I have the old style, so it takes me about 10 pulls to get it started. But, I have never had problems with it in the three years I've had it. It still has plenty of torque for the jobs I need.
My next attachments will be the hedge trimmer and blower.

Got one earlier this year. Weed trimmer ok blower nice pole saw and extension nice but heavy hedge trimmer awesome. I use the hedge trimmer as scickle and it is a beast. Cleared large spot in pine tree thicket to bowhunt in no time. No pine tree damage but cleared all the other stuff with ease. Have used an extending stihl pole saw before and it as heavy also so not disappointed in this saw and extension. This was pricey but am happy as it gets lots of use.

Have had mine for about 4yrs - KM90 power head pretty much every attachment over the years no issues. Non ethanol fuel, run a few ounces of seafoam through it each year, change the spark plug and air filter every year - haven't had any issues in fact most of neighbors have them now as well....

I've had the KM130 for seven years and love it. The only issues I've had were the carb crapped out about 2 years ago and a fouled plug. The straight shaft edger is bad to the bone and the hedge trimmer and pole saw come in handy every now and again. The best part about it is you only have 1 motor to maintain and it takes up less space in your garage.

Have km90 with string trimmer, edger, blower, saw. Had it 3 years now. I used to sell them and have run ever engine size and the 90 is my favorite, plenty of power and not too heavy to one hand when you have to Have absolutely nothing bad to say about it. If it broke today I'd have a new one just likeit by next weekend.
