4 Cycle weedwacker
I've had this about 2 months, used 5 times and has worked great. Always started easily and by the second pull. Not sure why it came with the electric starter thing, never opened it. it does go through the cutter line pretty quick but easy to replace

very heavy to operate. comes with no shoulder strap.curved shaft not efficient when whacking. engine louder than most. cord , especially the thicker one hard to weeve in place. I plan on returning within the 30 day grace period for the professional model which I previously owned.

For the first year it worked

Having had this for 11 months in sc it worked well and started right up. After sitting for a couple months i tried to start it up last weekend and it no pull started on me. I have the right mixture too and primed it per spec. Then I tried this magnificent electric start so I went to Sears and bought the adapter for my new Craftsman Bolt On drill..... It still didnt start. By the way no directions come with the adapter piece speed start. I bought all of the adapters the wackier, edge, tiller, etc has to offer and feel like I have wasted $800. I hope to **** sears takes this piece of expensive **** back tomorrow under its 2 year warranty

Heavy, too frequent change of cords, noisy

I bought this from Sears thinking it is a best deal for 4-stroke, easy pull etc.  Turns out to be costly to change the trim line every 5-7 mts of line trimming, noisey and you could barely hear anyone for 15-20 mts after trimming, bit heavy.  It is time to return it back now.

Power house

I bought this trimmer about a month ago and have used it heavily since. This thing is a power house. I had a ryobi trimmer with all the attachments and I needed a trimmer that was compatible and this thing works great with all the attachments. I have used my straight shaft trimmer, edger, blower and hedge trimmer and this trimmer head delivers more than enough power to use every one. The curved shaft trimmer it came with is Ok but I prefer the straight with a bump head. Starting it up is a breeze as long as you follow the directions and no more mixing gas and oil is such a nice benefit. It is a little heavy but a shoulder strap should help that. All in all an awesome trimmer that I highly recommend. 

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Craftsman convertible 29 cc 4 Cycle trimmer

After so many years of mixing oil and gas for the 2 stroke engines I thought I would try one of these four stroke models.I like the power it has and the ease of changing to different attachments. I am very pleased with this product.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Weedwacker Gas Trimmer

More than satisfied with this product. I have arthritis but found this weedwacker very easy to start and to handle. The only negative, and it's a minor one, is that because of the cord configuration, you need to be adding new cord frequently as opposed to a "bumper" weedwacker.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

The best weedwacker ever

I have purchased weedwackers in the past and have always had issues with pulling the string to start them. This electric start weedwacker has made life so easy for me. You just plug in the electric device , turn it on and it starts right up. Great idea " the electric start"

I would recommend this product to a friend.
