“They coppied Ryobi, but not as good as the real deal”
I was a bit disappointed in this model. I have had a Ryobi for 10 years and was very pleased with it. I could not find another Ryobi when Mine quit so I (as always) looked at Sears models. They have the same attachments (that seem to be better than Ryobi models) I purchased this unit and the first time I used it the shaft locked up and stripped the spline. I took it back and they replaced it with another - I was happy again. My new one has had the same problem. I will be replacing it when it quits with a different brand. The problem is that I have spent a great deal of money for all the attachments. I am not happy with the line configuration on this unit either . it takes short lengths of line , no bump to advance line, you must replace the line and there is always about 6 inches of line that does not get used.
Not a real effecient or convenient to replace the line in the whacker part of this unit.
I will not buy another like this one.
