I think there is a forum where a few are arguing who makes it. I heard First Choice but someone in that thread said that they didn't believe First Choice made them, so I don't know for sure.
Mine is a 5ft. It does well and I did have to slow down in the honeysuckles, but that is what I like about the HST in combination with the 5ft brush cutter, when the going gets tough it IS a little too large, but I can just simply slow down to the right speed to let it do its work. When the going ISN'T tough, I'm taking a 5ft swath with a 21HP tractor and that is cool. I've never had a problem brush cutting anything I threw at it.
