Since it was 48 hours since the date of purchase, 1 1/2 week to be exact, Lowe’s wouldn’t do anything about it.

I won’t recommend this product
Would Not RecommendAfter 80 hours the motor ran ruff. To clean the carburetor I needed to disassemble literally everything. It is insane. Buying it I expected to get good quality product made by craftsman but I got problems.

Not a quality product.
Would Not RecommendIt worked fine for a little while, but after a short time (run time) in a period of just a few days, it would not keep running. The motor would just die.
