LEODELL51 says "Easy to use, light weight" about Worx 24V 12&#34 Cordless Grass Trimmer

LEODELL51 — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 19:58:48 GMT

I bought this for my husband and he loves it. It is easy for him to handle and with it he keeps our yard with a clean, even cut. He is able to trim weeds that grow on the side of the garage without trying to get our large lawn mower in a small space.

WeedEaterBuyer says "Craftsman Weedwacker Gas Trimmer - Time Consuming to insert line" about Craftsman 25cc* 2-Cycle Straight Shaft WeedWacker Gas Trimmer

WeedEaterBuyer — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:37:27 GMT

I just bought this weed eater, it use to take me 45 minutes to weed eat my yard with my old unit, now it takes me 2 1/2 hours to do the same weed eating with the new weed eater.

The line on my old unit was thicker and easy to load. On this new unit you are having to change the line every few minutes it is not as thick, it is very difficult to feed the line through the holes on the new weed eater head, the holes are too small. I cannot recommend this unit to anyone since I found it very difficult to get the job done in a timely fashion.

budguy says "Craftsman Gas Trimmer is junk" about Craftsman 27 cc* 2-Cycle Full Crank Straight Shaft Weedwacker Gas Trimmer

budguy — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:27:13 GMT

I bought this gas trimmer after our old craftsman trimmer bit the dust. We returned it twice after the first two died the second you touched the throttle and then wouldn't start again (they tried to charge us restocking fees and then gave me a hassle about it looked "old and dirty" even though I had just purchased it an hour prior), and on our third machine, it worked great twice. It sat in the garage during a few months of dormant grass weather, and when we got it out again it wouldn't start. I nearly ripped my arm off trying to get it to start (wouldn't start with the starter device either). I finally got it started and after 10 minutes it died. I got it to start back up again and it sounded like it was choking and once I squeezed the throttle it died again. I performed the routine maintenance on it suggested in the manual and cleared out the gas (mixed a new can of oil and gas) and started over (after only 3 uses!). It still gave me a hassle starting it, and once I got it started it...

advancedcat says "The bag on the 12 am Craftsman Blower and Vacuum isn't durable." about Craftsman 12 amp Electric Blower and Vacuum

advancedcat — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:25:37 GMT

Purchased the Craftsman 12 amp Electric Blower and Vacuum for a 1/2 acre yard with lots of trees. On the inaugural run, the bag that holds the leaves tore. We were only 15 minutes into the process when it occured. The fabric is very flimsy. Sears, with it's great return policy, took it back. The blower is capable of moving leaves, but the fabric needs to be stronger.

TheDude001 says "Don't Waste Your Money" about Craftsman 27 cc* 2-Cycle Full Crank Straight Shaft Weedwacker Gas Trimmer

TheDude001 — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 03:49:10 GMT

Don’t waste your money on this is product it’s the 2nd weed eater that I have purchased in the last 3 years and they don’t seem to last. You would imagine the name Craftsman would super seed the quality but it does not. As a huge fan of Craftsman tools they have let me down in this department. They are built poorly and it feels like they want you to come back every year or so. When the gears in the weed eater shaft brook I couldn’t seem to find a replacement in stock on 2 of their locations. Very Disappointed.

aroot says "alan.root@gmail.com" about Craftsman C3 19.2 Volt Cordless Hedge Trimmer

aroot — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:27:03 GMT

This trimmer made quick work of all the hedges on my property. I was able to complete the work with just one Ni-Cd battery, but I like that I can use a lithium C3 battery if i need more juice. Battery power is definitely a plus with a tool like this, as dragging an extension cord with you gets annoying quickly.

ChuckB-1965 says "Plenty of power. No more hassle and smoke with 2-cycle fuel." about Craftsman 32 cc 4-Cycle Backpack Blower

ChuckB-1965 — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:24:03 GMT

This is my 1st backpack blower and I'm very satisfied with the power and ease to operate. I love that I don't have the hassle to make the 2-cycle fuel mix. And I've had some problems with all my old 2-cycle engine equipment -- oily residue seeping from the exhaust, the carburetors getting gummed up. If I could change one thing on this blower, the angle of the slotted nozzle seems off and I wish it was rotated about 15 deg counterclockwise. Instead, my wrist/hand have to unnecessarily compensate for this....

Susiee1 says "Great value and easy to handle." about Craftsman 12 amp Electric Blower and Vacuum

Susiee1 — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:16:40 GMT

Already had a leaf blower but wanted one with a vacuum I had surgery on my thumb so couldn't pick up and bag leafs. I checked out several before deciding on this one the ones at ******** and ********** where more expensive and the tube wasn't as big they also had only one speed and didn't have the power as this one. I would highly recommend this to anyone needing one. Besides it a Craftsman so you know your getting good quaility....

mogin12 says "4-in-1 does not shred. bought less than 30days/15%restock fee" about Craftsman 190cc* 4-in-1 Yard Vacuum System- 49 State

mogin12 — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:15:11 GMT

We purchase the Craftman 4-in-1 Yard Vacuum system. The vacuum worked, though it did not shred.

Sears repair serviceman says no broken parts, and could not agree on the term meaning of "shredder"

After testing the machine and visibly seeing that it did not shred the leaves, he would not write on the sevice report that the machine did not shred though he did state "nothing broken, not shredding good per tech."

He stated that we may return it because of Customer Dissatisfaction."

Have to pay a 15% re-stocking fee.

myangelgirl says "My husband loves his new toy." about Yard-Man 31cc 2-Cycle Blower/Vac

myangelgirl — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 19:19:09 GMT

I bought this for my husband for his birthday. He LOVES it. He was already out using it. He said that it is very powerful and does a great job. The reason for the 4 stars is that he said that bag fill up fast so you need to empty it frequently and it gets heavy after a while. Even with the two small nitches, he can't wait to use it again.

LovelyHomeowners says "The Craftsman Electric Hedge Trimmer is efficent and easy to use" about Craftsman 22&#34 Electric Hedge Trimmer

LovelyHomeowners — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 21:34:38 GMT

Very happy that we purchased this product. Very easy to use and lightweight for me to use. I absolutely love this product. Used it last fall to trim all of our bushes. We have a lot of trimming to do in our yard and it worked great. No problems with the cord, just make sure you buy a extra long extension cord. It went everywhere in our yard and our yard is not small. Definitely recommend.
