Arnold Starter Handle

Would Recommend

Replaced cord on leaf vac. Liked that it was so long— helps get a full pull on a machine that has lots of resistance.

Broke after 15 pulls

Would Not Recommend

Pull cord snapped after about 15 pulls (my 5th mow). Now I have to take my mower apart again to get to the pull cord to replace it. Don't buy. JUNK.

Line broke extremely quick

Would Not Recommend

Stihl weedwacker, worked great for about 2 mows. Line snapped on 1st pull after sitting for a week. I guess there's a reason the replacement line is so expensive, because this doesn't work.

Very Good Replacement Pull Cord & Handle

Would Recommend

Replaced a missing mower pull handle/cord which this offering worked for me perfectly --bought a 2nd just as a spare so I don't have to wait for a trip to Lowes next breakage!

metal clip pops out and allows you to easily vary the length of the string. Good quality for the price.

Didn't need the handle ... just half of the rope!

Would Recommend

Had sufficient rope to use on a vertical shaft mower motor with rope threaded thru an eyelet on a lawn mower handle. I used mine for a horizontal shaft edger mower close to engine housing so I cut the rope in half and now have a spare for the next time I need a new rope.
