Terribly disappointed
Would Not RecommendI purchased the wind n go because I hoped it would not be difficult to load. I had to find a YouTube video for instructions on how to attach it.

okay, should have spent $60 for the name brand

So far so good
Would RecommendSo far this is working great for me. Assembly was easy. The package of parts made it look a bit intimidating but don’t worry. They are just to make sure they fit a variety of machines.

I hope it last me longer than the original that came on my electric Dewalt. So far it looks promising.
