1.0 out of 5 stars Wimpy, September 14, 2008

By	deh2k (Hanover, NH USA) - See all my reviews

My old Craftsman 2-cycle trimmer gave up the ghost so I decided to go green with an electric. Once I got it going, the old Craftsman used to make short work of the weeds in my garden and behind my house.

The string broke about 12 times on the Toro and I had to open up the spool to fish it out. And the garden was only about 1/4 done. I finally threw it down in disgust and gave up. It may be OK for trimming the grass around the edges of your yard, but that's about it.

2.0 out of 5 stars bump feed did not work, September 26, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase

The bump feed did not work properly in the horizontal trim position, and did not work at all in the vertical (edging) position. I bought this trimmer to replace an older version which finally burned out after many years of service, so I know how they should work. With this one it was trim or edge for a foot or so, remove the head to feed out some more line, replace the head, and repeat- over and over again. Very frustrating. I even rewound the line on the spool a few times because it seemed to be trapped by overlapping line. I finally returned this trimmer. Overall, I have always liked the Toro brand, but this trimmer just didn't cut it (literally).

Toro products have always worked well for me doing landscaping and the 13 inch trimmer is no exception. Tough little machine.
