2.0 out of 5 stars Steer Clear-- Low quality product, April 18, 2007

By	Home Improvement Guy (Providence, RI) - See all my reviews

Cheap shouldn't necessarily mean low quality. If you're looking at this you probably want an inexpensive blower for a small yard, but don't want a power cord to lug around, and don't want to pay $300 for a backpack blower that is overkill. That's why I got this blower.

Unfortunately, this unit is low quality. I used mine for 18 months and it's dead, the pull cord has completely seized and the handle has always been loose/cheap feeling. There is no fix given on the Poulan/Weedeater website for the pull cord, so I will either need to: 1. Take it to a shop and pay more than it's worth to repair it. 2. Open it up, lose parts, and not be able to put it back together 3. Take it back to Lowes and see if they will replace it, which I doubt, or 4. Buy something new. All actions you shouldn't have to take after very moderate use- 10 minutes a week in the summer and longer during leaf season.

I think people will regret going low budget on this purchase.

1.0 out of 5 stars Broken again, August 20, 2006

By	Stuart Stevens "Farmall Acres" (Georgia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The second time I used this blower the pull cord mechanism failed. The cord would not retract. I dismanteled and rewound the pull cord. Next time I used it failed again. I am ver displeased with this unit and it is now unuseable. Can't start it without a pull cord. I do not recommend it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Cheap blower but bad consturction, find something better, April 5, 2007

By	Trip Guided "GPS New user" (Bloomington IN) - See all my reviews

Purchased from amazon because of gift certificate, on the first use the handle detached and now passed the 30 days return I am trying to find a dealer that accept fixing it under warranty. Many of the dealer say that they only fix what they sell. Too late. Wish I had purchased troy, craftsman or any other brand. Lesson learned.
