Comment:
Used for three seasons without any major problems. Only maintenance was replacting the gas feed line - easily done. I especially like the e z start system - starts every time with a couble easy pulls. Line changing much easier than my previous trimmers. Would recommend to other buyers.

Comment:
I used the trimmer as anyone would and it performed well enough. The starter was nice, very easy, but I changed the head since I am not a fan of a full line trimmer. After 3 months of use, maybe 12 to 16 times. The flywheel broke and I replaced it at a part cost of $40. Used it 2 more times and same part broke. Not worth the hassle, needs to be built more sturdy.
How long have you owned it:
Three-to-six months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
