What Customers Are Saying

The trimmer head is described as effective at cutting through grass and weeds, with many users praising its performance and ease of use. However, several customers report that the trimmer blades wear down quickly, especially when used on hard surfaces, leading to frequent and expensive replacements. Some also note the trimmer head can be difficult to control and does not provide as smooth a cut as a traditional string trimmer. Overall, the product seems to work well for many, but the short lifespan of the trimmer blades is a common complaint.

Weed Eater Attachment

Easy to attach to my Husqvarna. Not a brush cutting head but definitely cuts through thicker taller stuff than a regular single strand grass cutting head. Simple design makes it easy to replace plastic cutting strands (but I have not had to replace them yet).

Plastic blades don’t last at all

Would Not Recommend

Both sets of the plastic blades had to be used to finish one FRONT yard edging job... no thanks lol. We retuned it and got a real edger.

Buy a regular trimmer head

Would Not Recommend

the blades sfor this head are a piece of garbage. The local Lowe's sells them for about $10 for 4 sets. all well and good except I WIND UP USING ALL 4 SETS EACH TIME I USE THEM. I think they would be useful if you dont have to trim around a fence, wall, sidewalk, curb, tree or ANYTHING else. Junk.. buying a new head that takes trimmer line and replacing it ASAP

Works great!!!

Would Recommend

I bought this about 2 months ago because my ditch grows so fast I trim it often. With regular string, it would take me 45 min. to cut it, now it's only 15. Be careful around cement and fence lines, it will wear out the cutters very fast.

Love not having to wind string.

Would Recommend

The only downside is if not careful in trimming you can eat up the blades in one use. Got to learn to not force or beat the blades against anything but weeds. Otherwise I love this attachment

Amazing product

Would Recommend

I started my own lawn Care business and I use this trimmer on every yard. My customers love my work. I use the aero flex because it's easier and last a long time

Waste of time and energy

You will spend more time changing out the plastic blade things than you will actual spend trimming. The blades are ate up in 5 min of heavy use.

Don’t Buy

Would Not Recommend

Simply put, this thing is terrible. Steer clear and opt for a traditional string trimmer instead.

TrimmerPlus Shaft

Would Recommend

This was to replace a worn out curved shaft on my gas trimmer. Recommended by the manager, Moses, the shaft fit and works perfectly. I was exceptionally pleased with the time and effort he put into helping me get the correct item, even to helping me test fit it to my trimmer.
