What Customers Are Saying

The Craftsman weedwacker is a mixed bag. Some users found it to be a powerful, lightweight, and easy-to-use tool that effectively trims weeds and grass. However, many reported major issues with the string feeding and replacement system, as well as problems with the engine, pull cord, and other mechanical failures. The reviews suggest the product has both positive and negative aspects, and customers should carefully consider the pros and cons before purchasing.

Junk. Don't buy.

Would Not Recommend

Bought it last year at Lowes for 150 dollars. Didn't use it alot. Tried to use it this year but the pull cord came out. Took it to a shop, paid 50 dollars. Brought it home and it won't fire for anything. Tried everything then ended up throwing it across the garage. Piece of crap!!!! Do not recommend.

Be careful of buying these units w/Plastic Heads.

Would Not Recommend

I used it one time for about 45 minutes and the head assembly is pretty beat up from "Bumping" the head to advance the string line.

Not a good product. Breaks easily.

Would Not Recommend

Breaks easy. Keep having to return. Flexible shaft breaks way to easy and way to often. Pull cord gets stuck fully extended. Idle out of the box is way too high. Not a good product.

Amazingly Disappointing Product & Customer Service

Would Not Recommend

WC2200 starts when cold, but will not start after warm up, making it useless for multi attachment use... the reason it was purchased. I used fresh non-ethanol gas and followed all instructions. Trimmer was defective out of the box on first use and Lowes and the manufacturer (MTD/Craftsman) will not replace it or refund my money after 5 days! Worst retail experience ever! Manufacturer says I must go to service/warranty center which is 1 hr, 20 minutes away round trip, service center says mini...

WC2200 25-cc 2-cycle gas 17-in curved handle

Would Recommend

Best weed eater I have ever had. It is lightweight and easy to handle. My favorite part is how easy it is to load new string. Also, after using the weed eater, I have found that emptying the gas back into my gas container and cranking it to run the rest of the gas out of the carburetor, makes the life of the weed eater last longer.

Complete junk

Would Not Recommend

After purchasing one of these Craftsman trimmers that only lasted just over 2 years, I purchased another one, because I have many Troy Built attachments. (My Troy Built trimmer lasted nearly 8 years). Of course the new Craftsman died at just over 2 years as well. It's not the carburetor, I had that replaced and no difference. Had a compression test done...ZERO compression. I only use ethanol free fuel and get name brand 2 cycle oil. Contacting Craftsman was useless, was told "unfortunately the t...
