Stihl Combi unit and attachments

[bigshovel]

I am in the market for a new string trimmer, my 15 year old 1 pull and start every time Homelite is tired. I stopped at my local dealer and looked at the Stihl Combi professional unit and I feel this would be a good fit for my property and needs. I would like to buy string trimmer attachment, 135 degree 24" sickle bar. Out the door they want $723.00 for above mentioned product, good bad or indifferent? Thought and comments appriciated.

I bought one last fall so I dont have a lot of hours using it, but it seems like a great machine so far.

KM130R power head......285.00
String trimmer ...............68.00
pole pruner..................150.00
shaft extention..............42.00
Harness........................35.00

All plus tax and 20.00 shipping.

The harness helps a lot on long work sessions.

Curious where you bought it because those prices sound really low?

MONTANA MAN,

You're a dealer right? Is that number at the 1st link a good number.
Have you had many of these units wear prematurely?
The good the bad and the ugly about theese. I would like to buy one sat. your thoughts appreciated.

Bought the km 130 combi today ran it for about an hour and a half and that 2hp is sweet. Sickle head is so much better than fighting with line on a string trimmer in thick stuff. Line trimmer attachment and blower will get used tomorrow.
