| Good item for a very big yard!September 28, 2017 Good trimmer. Just give it a longer warm up period on # 2 choke setting (about 3 min). The instructions recommend 1 minute but will stall out if you try to use it before it's all warmed up. Love the fact no mixing oil with the gas. That 2 cycle oil would always gum up my old weed trimmers which required rebuilding them once a season to keep them running. The old attachments from my other weed trimmers (other brands) fit this new one, like the chain saw attachment, weed trimmer heads, brush cutter, edger, hedge trimmer and rototiller. Multi-toolSeptember 7, 2017 I'm really pleased with this multi-tool. I read on reviews before buying it. That it was hard to start the first time. But if you follow the start instructions posted on the trimmer it's a piece of cake. I like the fact that I can use other universal attachments, weed eater heads, Roto tiller,pole saw etc.... . And only have to have one gas can for trimmer and mower. Just read the warnings and be sure not to use E-85 flex fuel. It caused my old trimmer to break piston rod and die. Best trimmer I have ever ownedApril 1, 2017 Best trimmer I have ever owned, the only and I really mean the only is it gets hot right were my right arm is against it, not anybody's fault, but it gets hot Love it!January 23, 2017 Love it!

| Works like a champSeptember 15, 2017 Works like a champ. I like the fact that I do not have to mix the oil and gas. Starting it is a bit tedious; not like previous Troy-Bilt trimmers I have had. The curved shaft has a bit of a vibration. I use the straight shaft from an older trimmer and the vibration is gone.Overall, I still recommend it. A good first impression, more to follow.June 22, 2017 Just received and unboxed this unit today. Haven't put it to any kind of test yet. I had an old Ryobi that isn't worth tuning any more after a dozen years or more and poor maintenance and mixing of fuel on my part. I got my value out of it and now it can rest. This Troy-Bilt was packaged well and arrived intact. Very easy to quickly assemble the few parts that needed to be attached, like the guard at the end and the handle. It comes with the right quantity of oil to add prior to first use (very helpful or I would be inclined to overfill it). It started right up as per the instructions with no problem.I immediately noticed that this is a good couple of lbs heavier than my old 2-cycle Ryobi and I think I'll be using the shoulder strap for this one. a different balance and feel than the old one due to the difference in weight. The blue plastic choke lever is unnecessarily flimsy and feels like it'll break if forced to move at all. The engine is certainly bigger and bulkier than a 2-cycle, but I already like not having to mix gas and oil AND it's much quieter and smoother sounding than that typical blatty 2-cycle sound! One thing I really like is that the shaft on this is the same as on my old Ryobi. I'm going to keep the Ryobi for extra parts and can hot-swap the lower part so I can keep a string cutter head on one and the brush cutter on the other! Seems overall like a pretty solid machine. I'll add to this after using it a few times. Works great just cold naturedMarch 29, 2016 Works great just cold natured, have to let it warm up 5 minutes with choke on before you can use. It runs fine but takes a bit to get into the sweet ...December 7, 2014 Very handy with the ability to change attachments. It runs fine but takes a bit to get into the sweet spot of power. It will bog down under load if not warmed up or tuned correctly. Otherwise, if you follow the starting instructions, use clean gas, and treat it well, the Troy-Bilt works great. I'd recommend this 4-cycle unit. Troy BiltJuly 22, 2014 i bought this to replace my old Troy Bilt. It is the same model as the old one. If you need a weed eater this is the one. I gave it 4 stars because I don' like the curved shaft. Troy Bilt trimmerOctober 15, 2007 Trying to replace my Ryobi trimmer which decided to quit after about 6 yrs. Never had a problem with the Ryobi and I had all the attachments and didn't want to buy everything over again. The Troy Bilt is the exact same trimmer as the Ryobi. Also wanted to stay with the 4 cycle instead of the mess of gas/oil mix with the 2 cycle. The trimmer is a little heavy, but does seem to be pretty balanced. Starting is very easy. The only recommendation I'd make is the difference between the curved and straight shaft. I'm 6'2" and now have both types. I really notice a difference with the curved shaft--much more bending which my back notices by the time I'm finished with the trimming. Taller people should lean toward the model with the straight shaft. If you have been shopping, this is the exact models that Lowes sells. The price difference is much less on Amazon. Lowes wanted $169 for this model. When I bought on Amazon the price was $83 with free shipping. The price has since increased, but is still much less than Lowes. If you're looking for a trimmer with capability for attachments, I would recommend this trimmer. | | | | |

The head doesn't get as close to the ground as my old one. And it shuts off at half a tank of gas and I have to restart it. Although I believe it is built with good quality, the motor has trouble starting and consistently ...July 4, 2016 I am an owner of various Troy-Bilt products and have written favorable reviews for all of them. This unit is a bit different. Although I believe it is built with good quality, the motor has trouble starting and consistently running. I have tried to adjust the choke and ensured the gas was good quality. It takes about 30 minutes of running before it will idle on it's own. It becomes very frustrating, but I am sticking with the unit. I think I may have gotten a lemon here, so buyer just beware. Make sure a return policy is available in case you have the same issue. Need to work on the string headAugust 9, 2015 Having to buy a new head for it does not make me happy as the self feeding head was junk and did not work at all Troy-bilt trimmerJune 29, 2014 I had an older model that was stolen from my lawn shed and I really miss it. This new one is a little harder to start, but the big issue is the head and line. It constantly gets charmed or so etching and all the line goes inside I have to take it apart and rewind it. My old model used individual pieces of line. I liked that. It took less time to put in a new piece of line than this rewinding all the time. Troy-biltJune 5, 2013 It's real hard to get the part off where the string. I have to use a screwdriver to get it off!!! That is not right okayJanuary 5, 2013 it's quiet, but does not have much power. nice not having to mix oil and gas, but just average for a trimmer | | | | |

| Two StarsMay 18, 2017 I thought it was too short Not reccomended.August 13, 2016 Wow, I've used a lot of weed-eaters and this one is the worst. It is almost impossible to start with the recoil starter. I mean the instructions to start it are about 7 steps and you are supposed to prime it 10 times, then pull it 5 times, then halfway open the choke, then open the throttle and pull it five more times and if that doesn't work start over. Come on, they put a man on the moon with less effort. I would guess you are supposed to buy the optional electric starter. I takes forever to warm up (3~5 mins) and will stall if allowed to idle for more than a few seconds in 85 degree weather. Also, if you are thinking of putting the blade attachment on it the little sticker says NO WAY. The whole reason I bought this was I had many attachments for my defunct Craftsman 4-stroke and wanted to be able to use them. The one positive note is, it is pretty light which is nice considering the flimsy handle that comes with it.But I wish I hadn't thrown away the packing so I could have sent it back. I would not recommend this model for anything other than light string trimming. Two StarsJune 11, 2016 Power..yes.Its powerful but poorly designed. Many superior products exist out there. I would not recommend item The spin feeder for the cutting line broke the first ...July 31, 2015 The spin feeder for the cutting line broke the first time I went to use it. Bought a replacement and that one jammed up within 30 mins of use. Disassembled it, pulled out the bruised line, cleaned, reinstalled clean new line, and it jammed again 5 mins later.I’m going to have to change out the line system to a blade system. Not really ideal considering is brand new! Good motor, poor spool designSeptember 2, 2013 I should have read the reviews before I purchased. Spool has never worked right, is a real pain to get off and has now cracked after 3 months of use. The motor starts easily and runs well. the first one that ordered, the shaft sheeredSeptember 15, 2011 i finally got to use my new troy built a few days after i received it. i filled it with oil and gas and crancked her up per the instructions and away i went to cut some high grass around a stump when 15 min into cutting it just quit. it felt hot so i let it cooled down about an hour. tried to restart and the pull felt loose. thinking it was a safty feature to let it cool or reset i let it set till the evening and the pull was still loose, i had the husband look at it and the neighbor and both said that the shaft was sheered. i was upset and then horrified that i couldnt return it after putting gas and oil into it. but after contacting amazon, they replaced it fully. and i am greatful for that. | | | | |

The customer service kept me on hold for thirty minutes and then keeps hanging up on me.

Troy built was totally unresponsive. Also I will never buy anything of this nature from amazon and am seriously considering canceling my amazon prime account what a rip off. Buy a hand sheers instead!October 12, 2014 Trimmer head keeps shearing off the line after about 5-10 seconds of trimming. You have to take the head apart apart remove the string to restring each time. I would be better off with a hand sheers! Emailed the seller and and they have no ideas. bad reviews.September 29, 2014 returned, bad reviews. Don't waste your moneySeptember 12, 2014 Garbage. Do not waste your money. Heavy, VERY hard to start, difficult to load trimmer line,and once your do get it loaded it does not want to feed. Troy-Bilt used to mean quality equipment. They really dropped the ball with this one. Sad. Piece of crapAugust 15, 2014 I have to agree with all the negative comments - I used mine twice and its pretty much junk now - when I use the bump feature to let line out the head comes off and all the line wraps around the end so bad I have to cut it off with a saw. I was thinking about getting it fixed but is sounds like I would be throwing good money after bad. two thumbs down :( | | | | |
