Bolt holding air filter keeps breaking
Have tried to use it for 4 months. Bolt holding air filter housing keeps breaking. Bad design. Where you hold the handle, your had rest on the air filter cover, plastic top keeps coming off threaded bottom. Now has broken for 3rd time. Trying one mfg is sending, if that doesn't work will return it under warranty. Also, had to take it to their service center (30 miles away) to tune the carb....

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
I purchased this weed eater about a year ago, And when I first used it it was great, I never had any trouble. Fast forward to now, i am currently on my 4th one(thank goodness for replacement plans). The first 2 I purchased lasted about 3 months a piece. I had 2 broke pull cords and a wore out head out of them. Now mind you I only weedeat for about 30 to 45 minutes each time I mow. So each of these only had a few hours a piece on them. Then last month the weed eater I had only used a handful of times this season and was brand new. Absolutely would not start(stopped half way through my yard). Then while trying to get it to start back the entire pull cord assembly broke. Now 3 weeks later I am weed eating around my house with the brand new one and it stops running and the bull cord breaks. Saying I am fed up is an absolute understatement. People pay a lot of money for these products and they are completley unreliable. I dont have time to take a brand new weed eater back to get it replaced every week. For this to happen 1 or 2 times I understand, but for this to be the 4th one??? This will be the last cub cadet product that I ever purchase and you can take that to the bank.
Oh and I purchased a wheeled sting trimmer, which I am currently on my 2nd one. So we shall see.......

So awesome
Wow I got this about a month ago right after all the rains. The grass was so high and I was wonder ng how we'd get it down. This is literally the perfect product. I'm not used to using gas for these, but that doesn't bother me too much actually. Very good at trimming the yard down and super fun actually.

Good value!
I have used this trimmer in three times so far and it has performed well. It is not heavy and easy to handle. It has good power when I squeezed it to go faster during higher grass cutting. The attachment is easy to remove and replace.

Cub cadet gas trimmer
loved this gas trimmer. It assembled very easily. You can change the string very easily with no problem. I used it first time to edge my lawn and it worked very nicely and I found it super light compared to previous models I've used. I don’t think it was too loud not compared to other trimmers I used in the past. I trimmed the bushes in the front and back of my yard and it was very lightweight and easy to handle. I would recommend this gas trimmer to any of my friends.

Excellent seeder and brush cutter
Got this for my husband. We recently purchased 6 acres and 3 of them are wooded. He loves using this to trim around trees and to clear brush as well. It runs well and doesn't run thru gas fast at all.

Easy To Manuever!
This trimmer is easy to manuever. It has adequate power for completing the tasks of cleaning the brush and edging my yard. This trimmer is a good product and would be easy for anyone to use for lawncare.

Wow! Great power!
It’s been many years since I have had a new trimmer. This model not only trims the weeds but has a brush cutter in the package. I was amazed to say that it even came with pre-mix for the fuel. Unit was very easy to assemble and after following the instructions started right up. It’s a little different than the older models as you need to follow the directions exactly. For some reason it really does take five pulls On the first setting and then five more poles on the second setting. Maybe it’s something with the omission controls but it seems like a whole lot of pulling to get it started where my old 10 year unit would start on the first pole every time. Regardless, this is a quality unit super strong and very very nice to years. I love it!
