There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It was very easy to assemble with straightforward directions. The start up instructions can be confusing if you’ve never used a gas trimmer before.
I had to start it up a few times before it would continuously run on its own, but that was expected.
Overall it performs well and is easy to handle. It’s got enough weight to it that it doesn’t wiggle or jerk easily when full throttle, but it’s not heavy enough to cause joint pain after using it for an hour or two.
I recommend getting better string as there’s very little included and it’s not the best quality.
This unit is easy to operate. The motor is lightweight (compared to my Craftsman) and the shaft is longer which is ergonomically easier on me than my previous model. I'm 6' 1" so the extra length is noticeably better.
One thing I don't like is the carburetor choke switch. My side hits it sometimes and shuts off the motor.
I also wish the unit had a harness like my Craftsman. It's nice to be able to let go and use my hands or help support the weight of the unit during operation.
This Husqvarna makes a clangy noise like there is something wrong with the engine. I did some research and found out it's the clutch design. New owners need to know that.
This unit needs several tanks ran through it before it starts to run well. I thought I bought a lemon based on the "loose part" noise I mentioned and a motor that just wan't reving up or hitting its power band. Returns like this are brutal on Amazon so I decided to "put it through the paces" first which was a good move. The motor broke in and self adjusted.
My previous trimmer was a Craftsman 32 cc 4 stroke. It leaked oil from day #1 and had to be tossed due to a poor design with the string / recoil unit that couldn't b repaired. It's unfortunate. I really miss the torque and power. This Husqvarna is supposed to be one of the more powerful units available for residential trimmers but it pales to my Craftsman. It's ridiculous how effortlessly the Craftsman would dig into the dirt with the edger or chop through 2" trees with the brush hog attachment. This Husqvarna stalls out frequently doing the same tasks. It's hard getting used to the limited power this Husqvarna unit has compared to my Craftsman but I'm ASSUMING this unit will last longer than 3 years. I hope so because the power difference is really missed... especially with the blower.
6/7/2020 Update. I'm now downgrading this trimmer to 1 star. I had to take it in for service after minimal use for a bad coil. I've owned this unit for 2.5 months and ran 2.5 cans of the husqvarana fuel through it. I've never used any other kind of fuel. It starts great. It runs great. However, it now dies after it gets good and warm. I would estimate 20 minutes of run time. I bought it here from Amazon but they don't cover it past 30 days (maybe 60). Husqvarna is hard to deal with and I need it now for North Carolina summer so I'm paying a local service to fix it. They believe the coil already went bad.
I have no good solution for trimmers. I've purchased cheap units that are throw aways after a couple of years. I hate a disposable mindset so I went for better this time. Unfortunately, I'm getting a similar result and will probably have to pay 50% to 75% of the purchase price to get it fixed. I will next time "pony up" for a Stihl and maybe even commercial grade. However, I know that will cost me a lot up front and probably the same as a "throw away" every other year to keep it maintained. Sad that trimmers have come to this.
