First Electric Trimmer
Would RecommendIt’s a good trimmer. I have another skil piece of equipment-leaf blower. That’s why I bought it. It’s a little cumbersome to load the line but doable. I am still getting used to “tapping” the trimmer on the ground to get the line to advance. I like that it is not so noisy and it seems to trim as well as my previous gas trimmer. I would buy it again.

Great trimmer
Would RecommendSo after reading all the one star reviews. I decided to get this trimmer. It is very obvious that some people are barbarians other people have no mechanical skills and some should just hire people to do their yardwork. I’ve had this trimmer for two years. I use it every week. I use it on everything from heavy brush to fine grass. I even used it to scalp my yard to put down edging. Not a single problem, not one.
