Great price, great performance! August 26, 2009
I purchased this trimmer on-line and saved about $15. I had purchased a Black and Decker last year (I think a hedge hog) that performed miserably. This trimmer is fantastic and trims with no splintering. I have 8 evergreen shrubs in front of my house that trimmed beautifully. I have 20 leland cypress and plan to tackle them tomorrow. Thank you Sears and thank you Craftsman for another fine product. A definite score of 10.

Great cutting blade, but heavy, loud, and awkward to use August 27, 2009
I purchased this trimmer primarily on the recommendation of **************** (not the first time CR has led me in the wrong direction). The blade cuts well, no disappointment there. But I found the trimmer to be awkward to use in high and tight places, and it is heavy and loud (use ear protection for sure). If I had the decision to make again, I would shop around a bit more. The price was great and it cuts well, but the other factors make this purchase a disappointment. Sears should consider a redesign to address consistent consumer criticisms of this trimmer....and ****************....that's another story.

Disappointed. October 13, 2008
By SirAlvin
of Lawton, OK
I purchased these trimmers yesterday and trimmed my front hedges last night. On the plus side, they seem to have sufficient power, cut well and are fairly priced. On the negative side, I noticed three areas which could be improved. 1. The single point grip front handle has got to go. It is very difficult to comfortably hold the trimmers at a 90 degree angle while doing the side of the bushes. It is also uncomfortable to hold when horizontally trimming bushes slightly higher than chest level. The loop handle on other models is far more comfortable. 2. The requirement to constantly engage the secondary safety switch on the extended handle also makes certain trimming positions very difficult. 3. When trying to do a flat sweep over bushes wider than the length of the cutting bar, the bottom of the chain guard has a tendency to catch in the bush. This is very distracting and makes it difficult to accomplish a smooth and level cut. After taping the front switch to ON and removing the chain guard to do a non-catching level sweep, I have decided to return the trimmers for a different model.
