Very well engineered. This was a replacement for an ancient Toro Electric that served me well for almost 15 years. It's a little heavier than my old one, and perhaps a little noisier, but it more than makes up for it with its power, edging ability and auto string delivery. I'm learning to love it.
This model is not 'lightweight' as suggested in the promo literature. In fact, it is somewhat heavy to carry around. Line feeding is not straightforward while the unit is running, but that may be a fault in the instructions. That said, the pivoting head is a nice feature for edging. I've used it a few times and haven't run out of line yet, so I don't know if changing spools is easy or not. It wasn't with the last Toro I had.
The machine is too heavy for continuous use. The spool is almost impossible to restring when the cord breaks. I had to use a screw driver to get the spool cap to release. The cord release button does not work. I bought this on line so I did not realize how heavy it was but I would caution women to seek a lighter weight product.
This product is junk. The line will not advance, it is difficult to have remain running. I used mine for four to five feet and the spool exploded. I would suggest to anyone foolish enough to purchase one of these to do the same as I did, throw it in the trash.
Just bought it July 2014. it was very easy to put together. I like how I can adjust the handle to my height. It was a bit heavier than an old one I had but the job went faster so I didn't have to hold onto it as long. It was very powerful. I could see how it nicks the post and rail fence if you get to close. I'm just glad I don't have to stop and "bump" the line every 5 minutes like the last one I had. Very pleased
