This review is from: Husqvarna 128DJx 17-Inch 28cc 2-Stroke Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer/Brush Cutter with Detachable Shaft (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I purchased the Husqvarna 128DJx a few days ago. Got it over night. Went right to work with it. Very pleased with it. Only took a few minutes to put together. Added gas, two pulls and it started right up. After 20 to 30 minutes it started to bog down a little. I closed the choke about a 1/4 closed and it was fine. Ran like a champ. I think the factory is setting the carburetor to lean. It should be set richer. Especially when it's new. As for the trimmer itself. I can't find one thing wrong with it. It cut for over an hour. Some weeds were over an inch thick and I had no problems. One more thing. I was going to get a four stroke. (oil in the crank case) for the people that don't know this. I've been told that the 4 stroke engines use a lot more gas. I decided to get the 2 stroke. I very glad I did. It's very efficient on gas. Ran full throttle for over an hour on 3/4 tank of gas. If your looking for a real stout well built weed eater then this one will do you good. Thanks and good... Read more

Just tried out my new Trimmer and Edger and it works like a charm. Just edged about 50-75' of badly over grown beds and it cut deep enough so the centipede grass roots were cut thru so I could treat the unwanted grass with Roundup without killing grass outside the cuts. Had an estimate from a landscaper of over $250.00 to edge these beds so I thought I'd do it myself and am I glad. Now for my money I have a tool so I can stay ahead of the job.

5.0 out of 5 stars greatest String Trimmer Yet, July 5, 2011
This review is from: Husqvarna 128DJx 17-Inch 28cc 2-Stroke Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer/Brush Cutter with Detachable Shaft (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I bought this trimmer to replace a non starting Ryobi 4 cycle trimmer. I spent the last couple of days cleaning up 2 years worth grownth along a fence line and around some barns. I ma mad that i did not buy this trimmer soonier. It is a pleasure to start and run. it can be started with only a slight pull of the cord, do not have to yank the cord at all. Highly recommend this package.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible value for the average homeowner. But know what you are getting., October 30, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Black & Decker LC3K220 20-Volt Lithium Ion Cordless Electric Lawncare Center (Lawn & Patio)
WHY I BOUGHT THIS SET: I picked up this set because I had a corded Black and Decker trimmer that was giving me problems, so I replaced it with the 20v cordless trimmer in this set. I liked it so much that I returned it and purchased this set to get the other tools for less cost. If you're buying any of these tools by themselves, you may want to consider paying a little more and getting this set instead.

THE SET ITSELF: These tools are priced at over $100 each, so for a little more than the cost of two tools, you're getting all three.

These aren't meant to be as powerful as gas-powered tools. "With great power comes great responsibility" gas-powered tools also need a ton of maintenance, are expensive, and aren't the best for the environment. These Black and Decker 20v tools are lean, mean enough and green. I say mean enough, because they don't quite cut it for big jobs. You really have to know that there are limits for these tools and if you want something to do a... Read more

This is a great product for short timed work. The batteries only last 20 to 30 minutes and take up to 8 hours to recharge. The units are light and easy to use.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not any better than the NiCad, August 29, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Black & Decker LC3K220 20-Volt Lithium Ion Cordless Electric Lawncare Center (Lawn & Patio)
Worse version of the NiCad set I had. I have a large yard and needed to trim without running out of batteries. The blower is quieter, but the battery life is worse and they take longer to charge. I have Bosch lithium tools and they charge in about 30-40 minutes and last for weeks. These take hours or overnight. At the least 3 batteries just to trim and if I blow leaves or grass from the sidewalks and patio forget it. If I had not already sold the NiCad set I would send it back. Now I have to get rid of this and go through the nightmare of shopping again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Machine, May 24, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Hitachi CG22EASSLP 21.1cc 2 Stroke Gas Powered Straight Shaft Grass Trimmer (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
Very pleased with this purchase, great value, hard to believe this comes with a 7 year warranty!

First things first, it is light-weight compared to my old Poulan. It's not feather weight, but for the power, I don't think it gets much better. I ran the machine for 45 minutes straight. (I have almost two acres of mostly trees and a lot of fencing). My arms were tired, but the fact I could run the machine that long without my arms falling off is remarkable.

The engine and power transmission are very smooth with little vibration. You can set the unit down on the ground while running without it bouncing away. Throttle control is perfect and precise. You will be running this unit at half-throttle most of the time, unless you like stripping bark of your trees.

String feeder works fine, I had to bump it a few extra times, but I was using the line that came with the machine. Note to self, order a spool of string, they only load with a few feet. I have... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars An efficient weed killer, June 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Hitachi CG22EASSLP 21.1cc 2 Stroke Gas Powered Straight Shaft Grass Trimmer (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I got this string trimmer to tackle a quarter-acre of weeds. I bought a house last Winter and the yard had not been cared for in over 2 years. The back is full of huge broad-leaf weeds with 2' roots and garlic-mustard plants. I bought the Hitachi based on its reputation for durability compared to the chain-store brands like Poulan, Weed Eater, Craftsman, and Troy-bilt.

I've only had it for a month now, but it works great. This trimmer has no problem at all running for 90 minutes at a time and getting coated in weed juice. I definitely recommend wearing eye protection as this trimmer is easily powerful enough to fling chunks of weeds into your face. The .095 line is very durable and doesn't break when it hits the occasional rock or tree.

The price may be high when you compare it to the cheaper entry-level models on Amazon, but with a 7-year warranty I think this trimmer will still be around when I finally whack my last 5-foot weed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even More Reasons to Buy this Trimmer, June 21, 2010

This review is from: Hitachi CG22EASSLP 21.1cc 2 Stroke Gas Powered Straight Shaft Grass Trimmer (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
On the side of the box of the Hitachi I found the word "professional". "Yeah, right," I thought. However, I have been through trimmer purgatory. My first attempt was an electric Black and Decker 36V beast. It trimmed for about 15 minutes and then checked out. Determined to get more power and reliability, I bought a Craftsman 4-stroke. Plenty of power, but so heavy my arm started hurting after 10 minutes. The Poulan and Husqvarna 2-strokes also failed to impress. Husqvarna still makes good high-end equipment, but the lower end model is nothing more than a more expensive Poulan. Furthermore, I don't want my trimmer to be a blower, chainsaw, rototiller, or anything else. I want a good trimmer. Last, I tried a propane trimmer, and it was underpowered and kept dying on me.

This particular trimmer fit my budget at $[...]. I lucked out and bought it on sale, but it is worth the retail price (Hitachi is also giving a $[...] rebate right now, so my cost with tax was only $[...]. I... Read more
