My gas powered weed wacker and leaf blower died. I use electric hedge clippers, but I'm considering the Poulan or Craftsman units w/att .Suggestions?

I recommend it. It's a bit heavy but it will do what it was designed for. I would buy another one if it goes bad.

I bought the hedge trimmer attchment for my weed eater and I love it, it has different angles you can set it at to cut. I works really good. I use it on my ground cover and the bushes .

Your question is rather vague, however, if you're asking about the quality of this item; yes it works well. You will need a power head to operate it.

I have a Troy-Bilt 4 cycle power unit - it's the greatest! No mixing gas/oil. Starts easy. Four years old & no problems. I use it to drive my string trimmer, pruning saw, sidewalk edger, Poulan hedge trimmer, garden tiller and leaf blower (excellent for sidewalks after edging & trimming). I like the convenience of the power attachments. Why buy individual tools, each with their own engine? Too much up front expense and long term maintenance. All of my attachments work well because I have a powerful and dependable drive unit.

Interstate Batteries sells them. You may want to contact them and see if their battery comes with instructions. I discarded this grass shear. It lasted less than one season. I say buy a better one. Here is Interstate website : http://www.interstatebatteries.com

I have been very satisfied with the BV6000. It works well with leaves and small debris, either on grassy surfaces or sidewalks. Good luck!

The WG500 has a plastic impeller which may not hold up to the acorns. I have a few gum trees which drop those nasty prickly gum balls. Mine seems to mulch those okay, but it's not a LOT at one time. There are newer versions that have metal impellers, that might be the better option.

I cannot compare to the Weed Eater mentioned, as I do not have it. However the B&D; LSW36 is excellent and I am in my second year of use. Does a great job on sidewalks, two proches I have, two car garage floor and driveway areas. Really clears off debris, unless wet grass and then I am not sure any but an industrial gas blower would move wet grass.

I use it in leaf blower and weed whacker. I would think it should work with hedge trimmer.

This well be hard to answer. Maybe if I tell you why I purchased my mower may help. I have a large yard about 1 acre and sometimes I cannot mow when I want to, grass gets a little to high with the two electric motors this should make it easlier to cut and should last untill I'm finished with yard about a 1 1/2 hr run time. Also it cost less $359.00 at the time. Plus I well be able to use 40v 2ah battery with hedge trimmer I ordered.

Good Luck!.....I bought the Remington 60 volt cordless/corded lawn mower several years ago. Liked the idea that I could run the mower with an electric cord if the battery gave out before finishing my mowing. Unfortunately two years later the battery wouldn't hold a charge and the manufacturer discontinued making them. Couldn't find a replacement battery anywhere on the internet. Was stuck with an expensive "corded only" lawn mower. How's that for backing your products?? Will never buy anything with that brand again. Hope you have better luck in getting some kind of support.

I have owned my Poulan for about 6 or 8 months. It has worked great-cuts even big trees in no time. If Poulan makes a newer model I would certainly buy it.Ron in Texas

you should be able to find one on the internet-i have the hedge trimmer and the line trimmer or weed wacker-they both use the same type of battery-so one is in use and one could be charging -RA

I think the Alligator is exactly what you are looking for. It solved my problems with too big of a chain saw and other tools with too little power. I have 80 acres and the Alligator is getting a work out. Someday I will invest in another battery. Go for it!

I own the Toro 51609 and it does a fantastic job of vacuuming up piles of leaves. The metal impeller is much sturdier and will last years longer than a plastic impeller. You will suck up pebbles and twigs with your device and they will destroy the plastic impeller. These are issues that you will have to deal with eventually and I want people to be well informed before they make a purchase.

I like my Worx but I have a small yard to mow. I've never tried to stand it on end. I haven't heard too many good things about Black & Decker especially the batteries. That was one of the reasons I went with the Worx as it charges quickly and is easy to handle. If you don't like it you can always return it.

I have two items, the polesaw which I used all last winter charging occasionally, best product I have ever owned power wise and length between charging. Bought a hedge trimmer works great, do not use as often. From use so far I love my products. I do not store battery on the charger. I have not used my polesaw this year, but I expect it to perform as well as last year.

You are really looking at the wrong product for your application. You don't need to drop $500 on a REALLY good leaf blower either.1/4 of an acre is nothing clear with a good Husqvarna backpack blower. If you don't have physical mobility, you could still do a greatjob while riding whatever it is that you'd be on, and have the backpack on. This doesn't compare to a BillyGoat style rolling blower.Your application might warrant you just renting a machine a couple of times a year.

If you need the hedge trimmer it comes with a charger. Why a charger doesn't come with a blower baffles me. I would call B&D; about that issue.

Mind is a Craftman Weedwcacker model-358.795310, year 1997, 17",24 cc, the nut went on half way, but worked well last summer and is working well now. I use the same spool line I already have from Sears, just cut 4 to 6 (16" pieces) and go to work on a long driveway, along the fence, walkway, sidewalk, and 2 flower beds. Don't know if yours is the same, from what I read on the reviews it worked well on other craftman weed eater/trimmers. I had nothing to loose, my tap and go was worn out and broken, but the engine is running find, did'nt want to just throw it away just to buy a new one, also the four strings does a better job than the old two strings.
