Worth the Price
Would RecommendI previously had an old troybilt that worked pretty well for about 3 years. Until it didn’t. I was hesitant about this one due to the high price, but ma is it worth it. As a result of my broken weed eater, my grass was about 4 feet tall. My first use of this weed eater was WAY too much for any machine - but this trimmer didn’t skip a beat.

A bit heavy, but works great.
Would RecommendIt is easy to start, works fantastic, and last a very long time on one tank of gas. My only issue is that it is very heavy to use. Much heavier than the battery powered ones I used to use.

This thing is a beast!
Would RecommendAbsolutely hands down this thing is awesome! Replaced my 128LD that I had for over 15 years and couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase. I have heavy brush behind my house and it would take me at least an hour to clear with my 128LD. With this beast I was done in 20 minutes! Absolutely love it. Couldn’t be more happier with this purchase! I read the mix reviews for this model and really scratching my head for the negative reviews. This thing is an Animal! Highly recommended it!
