    Great simple trimmer with a lot of power and ease of use November 08, 2010

    Great little yard trimmer.  I went through two 2-stroke gas trimmers and got tired of them never starting.  Finally went back to electric and am thrilled I did.  It was either spend around $50 for a good electric or jump up to $300+ and get a good 4-stroke power unit.  I am SO glad I saved the money.  This is a terrific little unit and the automatic spooler is a nice feature.  It will occasionally not spool, but it is easy to adjust.  I definitely recommend this one.

    Craftsman electric line trimmer October 24, 2010

    This product is good except for the line cartridge. It is a double line feed and constantly got hung up. I could never complete trimming in a smooth no hassle job. The cartridge only lasted about 3 trimmings and then I had to go to Sears and buy another one for about $8.00. Most of the time the particular cartridge for this product was not available. I always had to go on line and order, which cost more and then I had to wait. I always had to stop mid trimming and unravel the line. Many times I just wanted to throw this product in the dumpster. After two years of using this product without satisfaction....I have given up.  SEARS.....................I want my money back. The line feed cartridge need to be reconfigured.

    string trimmer is great August 19, 2011
    via sears_dot_com
    By corona1000 of Chapin, SC
    Pros:
    Works as advertised majority of the time,A trouble free tool,powerful,Light enough for a boy to use

    This Craftsman Electric Trimmer is very easily assembled and quite sturdy. I am 63 yr old female and could handle this trimmer with ease...it is very powerful and goes thru thick overgrown weeds and grass in a second. I had gotten a Black & Decker comparable to this Craftsman and the string spool broke first time I used it. Returned it and did more research and came up with this Craftsman...I recommend it to all.

    Craftsman Electric Line Trimmer - Great trimmer, poor construct July 27, 2011
    via sears_dot_com
    By blackwood3d of Baton Rouge, LA
    Pros:
    Works as advertised majority of the time,powerful,Light enough for a boy to use
    Cons:
    Poor Design

    This Craftsman Electric Line Trimmer is a great trimmer, works exceptionally well with factory spooled line.  Careful, level rewind of the spool will provide similar performance.  Major fault with this product is "PLASTIC" drive gears (made in "CHINA") which melt or shatter with continuous use.  Was able to use intermittently for almost 2 yrs. before gear shattered (5 times longer than the B&D Grasshog XP with same "PLASTIC" issues--went through 4 of those before buying the Craftsman).  No refund or exchange available, simply bought another (under $45.00) ... great price, wouldn't pay more than that. Bottom line, it works well!

    EPIC FAIL - PIECE OF JUNK - DO NOT BUY!!! July 17, 2011
    via sears_dot_com
    By cartwright80 of Henderson, TX
    Cons:
    Cut my legs,Sorry sears, I'm shopping elsewhere!,Dangerous,Poor Design,replacement line cartridge expensive,Customer service non-existent,Junk

    This is possibly one of the worst products I have ever owned and absolutely the worst trimmer I have ever used. The big issue is that the automatic line feeder keeps on feeding line until the line start to cut my legs and then also gets wrapped up and stops the motor. Sears refuses to refund my money or to even repair the thing for free, they want me to pay for the repair to a faulty product. This has ruined my opinion of Sears and Craftsman all together. Before this trimmer I had a Black and Decker Grass Hog for 7 years and never had a problem with it.

    Pros:
    Works as advertised majority of the time,A trouble free tool,Light enough for a boy to use

    This trimmer is an excellent tool, easy to use and perfect for home use. It's reasonably light, even for those of us with back problems. Love the bumpless feature. Keep up the good work Sears/Craftsman.
