Works Great!

Would Recommend

We have 4 acres of unlandscaped but irrigated pasture. We have about 3/4 of an acre that is landscaped. We have a private 1/4 mile driveway and as we are both older we needed to reduce maintenance on the property. I decided after doing extensive research to purpchase the Earthquake walk behind 22" weed trimmer. IT WORKS GREAT!!!! Need I say more! Great time saver for mowing our lawn with riding mower. Awesome product!

Useless without parts or good support.

Would Not Recommend

Don't buy this garbage or any ardisam products. You can't get any support or parts after purchase - not even an air filter. They don't even have after-market part numbers so you can get a temporary part until the OEM part is available - so you're dead in the water if the unit fails. They're the ones who sell the parts - you can't find them locally when you need them (and you will).

Light weight and quiet

Would Recommend

I bought this for the ranch to replace a handheld weed trimmer. Before taking it down I used it at work here around a cement ditch with a good slope. Worked well and handled 10" high grass and weeds no problem. Mowed for 25-30 minutes on high and still had two bars on first battery. It was light enough to one hand it down the slope to the edge of the ditch and retrieve it. Streamed music while mowing.

Happy with this!

Would Recommend

Used it twice to mow my 1 acre yard. So easy to use and change the string. Can mow the entire yard on one or two strings. Battery lasts just like they said, sometime even longer. So light to push.

Great Weed Eater

Amazing string mower and very easy instillation. I use it on my 2 acres with trees, johnson grass and flower beds. I would highly recommend this walk behind mower.

Works well

Would Recommend

While the trimmer works well enough I am not thrilled with the way the line attaches by just looping through itself bc it tends not to tighten and remain tight when I let go. A previous machine I owned had a wide, flat “hook” of sorts behind a slot and feeding the loop through the slot over the “hook” then pulling it back tight made a much more secure line attachment.

Strength of use and ease of maintaining mower

Would Recommend

I’m so happy with my string mower. I have some large brush and Japanese bamboo in my yard And my string mower cut through it so easily I am so pleased with the result and going to get a lot of uses out of this product also, one of the strings broke off the mower and replacement was so easy some brush got caught in the bottom tray of the mower, but disassemble to remove debris was Quick and easy

Just what was needed

Would Recommend

I have property that is is not level and is rocky. A lawnmower will not work. We use to have to use a weed eater which was time consuming and a back breaker. Now cutting down the weeds and grass is much easier and less time consuming.

Great!

Would Recommend

Works great on tough grass and weeds. Don't expect it to mow down shrubs and trees, it's not a brush hog! Reliable. Light and easy to operate. Easy to re-string.
