JUNK!
Would Not RecommendI purchased this to replace my 23-year-old craftsman 3.5 hp edger which was wonderful but got ruined in the tornado last August. When I got it home and I started unboxing it I definitely wasn’t impressed as I could see almost every part of it Was cheap! After finishes assembling it and putting the oil & gas in it was time to start it, after about 10 pulls of the starter cord it finally started. I gave it a try and after about three sections of our driveway sidewalk I gave up as it was doing a ho...

Horrible product purchased last year, used it a few times but always had trouble starting it. This year pulled it out and put fresh gas and oil, and now it does not start at all. For the price you would think it would last longer than one year. Waste of money..

Craftsman of yester year
Would Not RecommendIt's too bad the Craftsman products have gone down hill. That was one brand we use to go to for our outdoor equipment. I'm in need of an edger, but these reviews talked me out of it. Let's get it together Craftsman! Please start making quality products again!

Craftsman Gas Edger
Would Not RecommendThe shield over the blade is poorly designed. It covers the blade in the front, so you can't push through to edge. Purchased, put it together, tried it out, and returned it all within 1 hour. Lousy product ! Considering it is "Craftsman", very disappointing.

Garbage don't start
Would Not RecommendWhat a piece of garbage. Don't start even with starting fluid. Use it once it barely kept idle. I would recommend this to only my enemies as punishment.

Craftsman edger
Would Not RecommendI bought this to avoid having to use my trimmer to get an even line from sidewalk to grass. It does ‘okay’. The motor starts easily, however; the torque is just not that strong. It gets clogged with dirt easily. I would give it an average rating

Disposable Edger
Would Not RecommendUsed it one time and the blade stopped turning. Took it apart, the belt and cheap plastic pulley had melted. Don’t waste your money on craftsman anymore it’s just too cheap. This edger is really made by MTD. It doesn’t get much cheaper than that.

Idles horrible
Would Not RecommendI got as a Father’s Day gift and was very excited. After the initial use it strains when using and smokes. Halfway through trimming it then just stops. It now takes forever to start and consistently needs oil. Got less than 1/2 a season out of it and it’s now junk and a waste of money. Save your money and get something that will work consistently.
