So the person that started the site, (and from the information on there
purchased just 1 of the 1000s of Hayter products, )
got one that didn't work properly and felt ****ed off enough to write a
website should look out for Hayter prosecuting for slander and libel.
SOGA in the UK would have been a better route with assistance from Trading
Standards.

Libel would only apply to false statements, detailing a tale of woe might
not be pretty but nevertheless it can still be the 'truth'.

after "Virgils Ghost" lambasted Hayter
They suck, apparently :-
http://www.haytersucks.co.uk/


I've got a Hayter I bought secondhand, ex-hire, in 1984 and beat
hell out of subduing 4 acres of rough hillside. It still starts first
pull and works perfectly.


I use an electric Hayter that was my Mothers (and she died in 1993) and it's
almost as good as new despite her having a good amount of grass. Only one
problem with it since new, a broken bracket caused by having to run it down
a step, and that was a simple fix after obtaining a redesigned spare part.
Our Hayter (+ Honda & Husqvarna) shop provides excellent friendly service
too.

First comment is they obviously haven't read the instruction book re height
adjustment, with a £50 mower there probably isn't one so they probably don't
realise the Hayter has such a feature, and no doubt lots more besides,
another case for RTFM.
On the lowest setting it would scalp the grass, cricket pitch style.
One has to wonder if the other problem is associated with their lack of
reading too.

After complaining about the too high cut it's perhaps no wonder the agent is
wary of them and asks for £50 for a service (for timewasting?) :-)

I bought a new electric Hayter over three years ago having got fed up
of replacing Flymo's and B& D's in rapid succession. Tried a Qualcast
which was quiet but underpowered. Not sure if Hayter make their own
electric models or buy them in but it has been an absolutely lovely
machine to use. Nice powerful induction motor. Switch it on. It works
every time. No faults so far. Paint peeling a bit but nothing else.
High price but value for money. I would recommend Hayter from my
experience.

I've been using a petrol one for 6 years.
Starts first time, never serviced.
