Amazon.com Product Description
The Troy-Bilt 2-cycle 31cc non-clutch gas trimmer features convenient EZ-Start choke technology, which allows the user to simply flip the choke, prime the engine, and then give a slow, smooth, easy pull for a guaranteed start. The EZ-Start technology allows the trimmer's engine to engage with 55-percent less effort than most gas models. With its rugged 31 cc engine, the trimmer provides plenty of brawn to power through the most ragged, overgrown growth. The trimmer's professional-style straight-shaft, split-boom design gives easy access underneath low-growing shrubs. The trimmer cuts in a 17-inch radius and features heavy-duty, 0.080-inch dual lines with convenient bump-head line release.P When it's time to replace the line, the featured SpeedSpool line replacement system is exceptionally easy to load and rewind, all without removing the spool or taking it apart. The entire trimmer feels exceptionally balanced and comfortable in the hand, and the ergonomic soft-grip D-shaped handle easily adjusts for both right and left-handed users. The trimmer comes with all the necessary oil for immediate operation, and is covered by a 2-year limited warranty.

 Don't waste your time! August 18, 2008

This is a piece of Junk. This weed eater will cause you to pay for repairs. I have had 2 of them and my neighbor's second one broke also. Ask a small engine repair man about Troybilt and watch his reaction! The carb on the Troybilt is so temperamental and will gum up, stall or will not work at all, I have spent $60.00 on repairs, this weed eater is only used sparingly and my yard is not that big! I had a Ryobi for years and never had a problem, save your money, buy a Stihl!!!!!!
 Troy Bilt Gas Powered Trimmer (#41BDT654G966) September 15, 2007
Anthony Tartaglia (Danbury, Ct)
Amazon provided customarily excellent service, delivering the trimmer in a very short time. The recoil starter takes some getting used to, but works well. The engine seems to require a long warm up to run smoothly, but that might just be due to a needed break in period. The bump feeder on the trimmer line doesn't feed well, so there are lots of " turn off the motor, adjust the line, restart the motor, feed the line" pauses. br / br /This unit replaces a 6 year old Craftsman trimmer that had to be retired, and a 50cc Echo trimmer that was awesome but just too big. All in all the Troy-Bilt trimmer comes in third out of three, ranking the performance of these machines.
 Great Power / Great Value March 26, 2007

The spring-loaded pull-start feels awkward at first. It takes some getting used to. Trimmer is very powerful, but a bit heavy. br /Overall, I like it.

I just purchased one of these and I am amazed how poorly things are being built now. If stopping every minute to rewind the line is what you want here is your trimmer.
