PowerSmart 2-Cycle 25.4cc 18lb Straight Shaft Gas String Trimmer, Weed Wacker and Weed eaters for Lawns and Grass

On, Thurs. 7/17, I began again shopping for a deal on either an Electric or Gas Weed Wacker to replace my 20 year old 17 in. Homelite Grass Trimmer.. On Mon. May 26th, I purchased a Hyper Touch 26 cc, 2 Cycle Gas String Trimmer in which I returned because it was not exactly what I was looking for to replace what I had. On Thurs. 7/17 I found what I had been looking for at a great price. Sat. 7/19, at 4:10 PM I received my new Weed Wacker via FedEx in a big box. On Monday morning 7/21, around 7:20AM I opened the box removing all of the parts and the owners manual. I thumbed through the owners manual before going to YouTube to find a tutorial on how to assemble my unit. Mon. 7/21, around noon time I begin assembling my Weed-Wacker. On Tues. 7/22, around 5pm I was able to start my unit easily using Walmart’s Supertech Gas / Oil in it. I was very impressed with how easy it was to crank it backup after shutting it off several times and the blade trim down the brush and edge my grass. Finally, some genius onlooker wrote in the comment section on the video I was watching that PowerSmart customers might want to consider purchasing an Echo brand Weed Wacker. I beg the differ after using my PowerSmart Weed Wacker for the first time . I would recommend a PowerSmart 2-Stroke, 4cc Gas String Trimmer Weed Wacker to anyone in the market for one for the money $$$$$.

I was nervous based on the negative reviews that I’ve read. This arrived fast enough. It arrived in a new box, because it’s a new weed whip. I went with a bigger CC, which was a mistake on my part because it’s definitely much heavier and I don’t need all that power. Maybe if I was using the attachment, blade and a regular basis but I’m not.

Overall the trimmer works great. The string and the blade have both come in handy. The only complaint I have is the support handle broke during normal use after about a month after receiving it.

Trimmer was damaged when received. Plastic covering was cracked in two places.

assembled my trimmer put oil and gas in it started it up went to use it and the trigger for gas throttle not working when squeeze the trigger it does not pull the throttle cord to operate the trimmer very dissapointed and unhappy with the product bad throttle trigger design

When I started using the equipment I had to start it a few times because it kept stopping. Then the bar that supposed to be locked in place started moving around Everytime I was using it. I stopped and readjust it a few times. It was super hard to come out, which should have been easy to pull out. The bar has screw marks where it is turning while I am using it. It is constantly stopping because the top on the spark plug keeps coming off. I could not even cut my back yard because it kept stopping so many times. I tried to pull out the bar and see if I could put it back into it and it would so hard to release. It took my brother and myself awhile to get it loose. So, I worked on it which I should have not been doing special sence I just bought it brand new. It should not be shaking and making noise as well as not cutting like it supposed to be doing. I want a full refund.

The assembly was horrific! The directions didn’t accurately show how and where to assemble the hand grip! Mine pulled 2 of the 4 bolts through the plastic casing of the handle, basically giving me 2 of the 4 bolts as support. Handle moves/slides making using this product very difficult. I’m going to Menards to try and get bolts, washers, and a nut that will essentially rig this thing and it’s BRAND new! 1 star! Keith

Used it one time after having problems starting it. The next time it wouldn't stay running. Had it checked out. Come to find out the carburetor is bad on it.

This piece of junk is the most worthless thing I've ever purchased with my hard earned money not only can I not get a refund or replacement but the warranty phone number is just gone or not working so don't ever purchase this

Missing screw
