Customer Review: Poulan Pro String Trimmer Line
I'm very happy with the Poulan Pro String Trimmer and these pre-cut fills. The best thing about them is that they are precut individual pieces that are quick and easy to remove and install on the trimmer head. They are a pretty good length, either 17in or 18in I believe. The only hang up with these is that they break fast so if you use along a building, fence line, etc (who doesn't?)be prepared to change them out frequently. Others have said that they had a hard time finding these in their local store. I did too, at first. When I could not find them at Lowes and Home Depot I pretty much gave up (don't those colossal companies carry everything?) and then after I ordered them here for $7.50 a dozen I found them in Wal-Mart for $3.50 a dozen.
Customer Review: Good Product
Good price fast shipping and payment went great! :) I would recommend this product and seller. This was just what I was looking for it's sad but I couldn't find it anywhere in town.

Husqvarna 128C 28cc 2-Stroke Smart Start Curved Shaft String Trimmer

Lightweight trimmer that is perfect for homeowners looking for the ergonomic features unique to a curved shaft. Easy starting with air purge and Smart Start recoil assist. Strong, braided wire cable drive. Comes with easy loading T25 bump trimmer head. Handle adjustment can be completed without tools.
Customer Review: Excellent Trimmer, read review for details
I recently purchased this trimmer after extensive online research as well as questioning those I know with lawn care businesses. Based on my research this is the best value near this price range for string trimmers. The trimmer is slightly heavy, certainly seems closer to 15-18 pounds than 10 pounds. However the power and cutting ability significantly reduced my time trimming so the additional weight was not a problem. The owners manual was lacking to illegible. Stringing it the first time was a challenge and took me nearly an hour to figure it out. Assembly is straight forward and simple as is starting and operating the trimmer. It has more than adequate power for home use. I purchased the .095 "Husqvarna Titanium Force Premium Trimmer Line" and it beats everything in it's path to death. It will break at times on chain link fencing and landscaping bricks. It starts quickly and effortlessly, runs smooth and without vibration, is well balanced and a pleasure to operate. Personally I am no fan of "bump head" trimmers but the line holds up very well so it isn't as irritating as with some other trimmers. This model has a clutch to engage the cutting head where your palm holds the shaft and once released the head stops spinning while the engine remains idling. I have adapted to releasing the clutch and manually pushing the bump head to release additional line as needed. This ensures I get the proper length and will prolong the life of the bump head assembly. I cannot attest to the durability of this product as mine is quite new but based on my personal research it should hold up well. Additionally as with any good two cycle equipment I highly recommend you spend a few extra dollars for premium 2-cycle oil as opposed to using the cheap stuff.

Factory Reconditioned Black & Decker 9-Inch 12-Volt Cordless Electric String Trimmer and Edger #CST1100R

This is a factory reconditioned product. Reconditioned generally means that the tool has been returned to the manufacturer, who brings the product back to like new condition. Some products may contain cosmetic blemishes. Includes 12V Cordless 9" Trimmer Edger - CST1100R, (1) 12V Battery Charger, (1) Wall Mount Charger Bracket
Customer Review: Good value. Good trimmer.
I have a fairly small yard (live in a townhouse) and didn't want to get a gas-powered trimmer. I had a minor snag as the AC charging adapter wasn't in the box (I bought this from amazon, not Buckeye). Called Black & Decker and had a new one in a few days. The rotating head works perfectly for getting the vertical trimming like along the sidewalk. Weight and balance feel good, not too unwieldy, not too light. Battery life is enough that I can get my front and back yard done off a single charge unless I wait too long between trimming - 3 weeks or so. Bottom line: Super perfect for small yards. If you've got a larger yard and don't want gas-powered, get a unit with removable battery pack and get a spare battery.

Black & Decker RS-136 String Trimmer Replacement Spool

The Black & Decker String Trimmer Replacement Spool eliminates the tediousness of hand-winding most bump feed string trimmers. The 20-foot replacement spool is factory wound for optimum performance and includes a .065-inch diameter line. It is compatible with Black & Decker string trimmer models: #ST1000, #ST3000, #ST4000, #ST4050, #ST4500, #ST5000, #GE600, #ST200, #ST300, #ST400, #CST800, and #ST6800.
Customer Review: Great Replacement Spool
This spool is a great replacement piece, however if you need more line & you have the time to roll out line Wal-Mart sells over 200 feet for only #=$3.47. However you will have to roll on to the spool by hand which really doesn't take that long.
Customer Review: B&D String
We bought this product because we needed a spool replacement for our weed whacker. Unfortunately, when this string breaks, it breaks inside the spool so you need to open the whole thing up to pull the string to the outside. That gets really old to have to take it apart every time the string breaks.

Black & Decker 13-Inch 4.4-AMP Automatic Feed String Trimmer and Edger #ST7700

Ideal for both post-mowing maintenance edging along hard surfaces like pavement, and trimming grass in hard-to-reach areas, this easy-to-handle automatic feed string trimmer from Black & Decker cuts a 13-inch path and has a 180-degree rotating head for simple conversion to edging work. A 4.4 Amp motor spins the line at a speed of 10,000 RPM and gives the ST7700 the power it needs to tackle overgrown grass and weeds. And thanks to the Automatic Feed Spool (AFS) design, there's no bumping as the cutting string automatically advances; additionally, a built-in auxiliary handle helps minimizes wrist fatigue for longterm use. There's even a convenient cord retention system to guard against unintended unplugging of the tool while you're working.
Customer Review: B and D weed eater
Had some trouble with this product, but with a long history of B&D where all was good, I remain faithful to the brand. What I was REALLY IMPRESSED with was Amazon's handling of the problem. The replacement was sent immediately upon my contacting them, and everyone was extremely nice and helpful. I don't know about other folks, but how a company handles a problem is very IMPORTANT to me. AMAZON, gets an A+ for this transaction
Customer Review: very handy for small jobs
Black & Decker is a reliable name whose products I have purchased over the years. I actually bought this particular product as a standby, but use it more than I thought I would. I have a very small lawn in the front and back and actually have someone mow the front lawn for me. However, my back lawn's grass is kind of weak and his equipment is too powerful, it always killed some of the grass, especially around the edges with the trimmer he uses. I decided to do it myself so I purchased this lightweight trimmer and it serves my purpose. My grass is in better shape than it was and I really don't mind doing such a small lawn this way. In early spring when the grass has started to grow, before this person starts his mowing season, my trimmer comes in handy to give a finished look to my front lawn. Again, I am using this on a very small lawn and it does a great job. Let's not forget it's intended purpose, it also does a great job trimming and edging.

Customer Review: For us it's been a dependable workhorse
We live in the country and after clearing land with a sythe my husband was looking for something to help him clear the brush and cut back the weeds/grass around the shed and other outbuildings. For us it's not about manicuring anything -- we need something that is a hard worker. First time my husband used this he was out there for 5 hours; of course he took some breaks so both he and the motor wouldn't overheat, but this was one solid worker. You know something is good when other people see it in action and ask to borrow it. It's been borrowed...his brother was so impressed he used it around his land (also out in the boonies). We also have the Poulan Pro PP4000C Brush Cutter Trimmer Attachment -- I highly recommend that attachment if you have brush to be cleared or want to trim back little trees and bushes. My husband says it's powerful, but it's better to go half throttle on it and save the engine than get something less powerful and burn the engine out. We just gave one of these trimmers (and the brush attachment) to my suburb-living sister who didn't want anything gas operated. She's changed her mind, they love it.
Customer Review: Poulan Pro String Trimmer
Works better than expected. Starts easy. Really like the string design of not having a spool. Very strong - can trim hedges and light tree limbs as well as the regular grass edgings. Wish I had bought one sooner. The price is low by comparison as well.

Factory Reconditioned Homelite 17-Inch 26cc Gas Powered Mighty Lite Curved Shaft String Trimmer (Non-CARB Compliant) #ZR21506

Homelite Mighty Lite 17" Curved Shaft String Trimmer with powerful 26cc (.8 HP) engine. New Rotochoke starting system. Lightest curved shaft gas trimmer weighs just 7.9 lbs.
Customer Review: Must Buy, Read Directions!
Much has been written about this unit not starting but I bought it anyway. READ the directons! I have had another Homelite for 10 years and the starting sequence is different. I received the item very quickly and have used it three times already. GREAT buy and supper line trimmer!
Customer Review: Does not start after one season
I got this trimmer which initially ran fine "out of the box" problem is that it started malfunctioning after only one season. Now it does not start at all. After some troubleshooting I found out why this occurs. The trimmer has a mesh filter, this allows the dust into the trimmer. It severly scratches the piston walls and piston causing the compression to drop below 25Lbs. I achieved 60Lbs by squirting thick oil into the engine. The trimmer started right up and ran until the oil ran out and my compression dropped again. Trimmers must have 50Lbs or more compression to run. If this only had a filter it would last like the ones of old.

Tanaka No Brainer Quick Load Cutting Head (for curved shaft string trimmers) #32307

It's a No Brainer. Simply push button, insert line, and cut.
Customer Review: Quick And Easy String Change
This replacement head sure beats the bump and feed method to extract more line out of the head. \String replaement is easy just press the release button, pull out the old damaged line, and insert a new precut line. Installation on my reconditioned Ryobi electric trimmer Factory Reconditioned Ryobi 15-Inch 6 Amp Electric String Trimmer #ZRRY41002 was easy as well. Just unscrew the original head, slip on the provided spacer , and screw on the replacement head. All string trimmers should have this head.
Customer Review: cuttting head
The line is easy to change but seems to use up to quickly. The plastic casing doesn't hold up if hard objects are hit.---- Brian

the product was as stated and arrived quickly.it started and ran just as it instructed.works very well and is powerful but the grass shield is too small and gets grass all over you.but for the price it is a very good deal. i would recommend it..
Customer Review: I do NOT recommend this product at all - ZERO STARS
I have had this product for 2 years and it has been painful to start since day one. My previous homelite (different model that I can't find anymore) lasted me 10 years with one spark plug change and a few filter cleanings; and started every time with ease. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT AT ALL! I have spent numberous hours fixing the string and getting it to start. It looks like I have to give it one star for this review to work so it gets 1 star for looking nice and zero stars for not actually working....

Black & Decker 12-Inch 3.5-AMP Electric Bump Feed String Trimmer and Edger #ST4000

Featuring a 180-degree rotating head for easy edge trimming, this electric bump feed string trimmer from Black & Decker is ideal for a variety of post-mowing yard maintenance jobs, including light landscaping. Lightweight yet powerful, the ST4000 owes its reliable performance to a 3.5 Amp motor that spins at 10,000 RPM and cuts a 12-inch cutting path. Feeding the spool is a snap--just tap the trimmer on the ground--and a textured top handle can be adjusted for better comfort and control. And to help protect against unintended unplugging while you're working, there's a handy cord retention system. The ST4000 also operates at a quieter level than many other models, and converts to an edger with just one touch of the "Groom 'n' Edge" button. For added peace of mind, it comes with a 2-year warranty.
Customer Review: Pretty Good
I've had one of these for five years. It is certainly powerful enough for my small, suburban yard that is within reach of a 50' extension cord, and I have never thought about the weight (that being a good thing). The power is enough that I do not wear sandals, and I do wear safety glasses (a cool (not dorky?) looking DeWalt tinted/UV pair I picked up as an Amazon cart filler). I'd say the durability is good as I am in the class that while I don't abuse my tools, I don't baby them either; I put them to the task. I can see from the picture that B&D has fixed the main problem I have with mine (it has the shorter edge guide with the mount that breaks). I had had it with that edge guide, so I bought a same-priced Craftsman. I tried the Craftsman for 20 min. I spent more time re-starting the string than trimming (I am definitely returning it; it's heavier, too). So I decided to take another stab at fixing my B&D ST4000, and I finally came up with a good fix (I'll try posting a customer image). I imagine I'll get a few more good years out of it.
Customer Review: Perfect Trimmer/Edger
We are extremely pleased with our Black and Decker 12-inch electric bump feed string trimmer and edger. We had purchased one of the new automatic feed trimmers in the spring from Wal-Mart and it just feeds through string like mad! It was a disaster. We couldn't find any of the bump styles in Wal-Mart, Lowe's or Home Depot, but thanks to Amazon, we were able to purchase a new bump trimmer. So, stock up everyone - you'll really hate those automatic trimmers!!!!!
