I always check for cheaper quotes first cos you need some ammunition and if they just cancel like that (which is very rare) you've got another one to go to.
We've got an electric strimmer as I can't be faffing around mixing 2 stroke fuel up and it's good enough for what we need, the standard nylon/plastic cord is far too thin and snaps within seconds so I just buy some thicker stuff. I will also have an electric chainsaw soon for the same reason, the petrol tank is soon empty and like you say it is too noisy. My neighbours haven't said anything about it but I've got a lot of wood to saw up over the next few weekends and I don't want to annoy them. The electric one's aren't quite as powerful but they are a lot quieter.
