Restored Husqvarna 966441801 28cc Gas 17 in. Curved Shaft String Trimmer (Refurbished)

VMI was very prompt with informing me on the status of the delivery. Item arrived safely, in a big box and 90% assembled. Saw some other reviews and was a bit concerned with getting a really beat up piece, but that was not the case. However, there are slight marks, dents and marker notes on the orange plastic cover. I am not complaining, I know I purchased a refurbishes product, but the engine and gas tank look new. Replacing the probably $2 plastic cover would have went a long way with a wow-ing first impression. Just saying... Only used it once so far, with no issues. Put gas in the unit, followed the clearly marked starting instructions and the trimmer turned on right away. Even the "bump to release line" works fine! And I was somewhat unlucky in the past with using this feature with other brands trimmers. Just like any other device, it takes a bit of time to adjust to its size and weight, but so far I feel like I got a great deal and am very happy with my purchase. Yes, I would recommend to a friend and yes, I would definitely buy one again.

Bought this after a summer of difficult to starting with my last trimmer. The issue did not resolve even after cleaning the carb and replacing worn items. After it refused to start, I looked for a quality replacement. At $120 I decided to try the refurbished one's here versus $200+ for a new Husqvarna or better (Stihl,Poulan). I was very pleased that the trimmer arrived quickly. Looked brand new, very little wear. It started on the second pull. I have used it for the past 6 weeks doing the usual yard trimming around the perimeter of my 1/3 acre yard. Runs great, no hesitation. Has started easily each time.
