I have 2 of the green model and one has always started first or second pull - which is nice - the other 3 or 4
Have had issues of the spark shorting out within the plug boot - fixed with some insulation tape
Also have a brand new one in box - got it for about $100 on clearance a couple months ago - its the one bunnings sell with the chainsaw and long pole attachment. Effectively, for the price, I bought the chainsaw attachment and got the engine and extension pole thrown in
