About Craftsman WS235 2-Cycle 17-Inch Straight Shaft Gas Powered Brush Cutter
Overall Feedback:
75% positive
71% found it easy to carry, but 29% didn't appreciate
I love the J-handle and shoulder strap on the trimmer, which helps me deal with the extra weight.
I have noticed that the trimmer is not light in weight and can be tiring to carry for long hours of trimming. I suggest taking breaks and adjusting the handles and sling to make the job easier.
73% found the multiple speed settings beneficial
I am impressed with the trimmer's speed, as it quickly clears underbrush and thick weeds with a reasonable noise level.
74% found it easy to use, but 26% raised concerns
After setting up the string-trimmer, it was easy for me to start.
I found the instruction manual to be big and daunting with so many pages, but setting it up was not too bad.
Changing the string attachment for the first time was horribly difficult.
I am having trouble adding new line to the trimmer head. The directions are not clear and I ran out of line after a few minutes of use. It is frustrating because the directions do not seem to apply to this particular cutting head.
