This is the original Weed Eater!! Made by Weed Eater!! This machine is a monster! It's not like those other cheap electric pieces of craps! It has more power than you actually need. Honestly, I never really used it that much because I injured myself at work and hired a lawn maintenance service to do all my dirty work. lol. I know, I know, I'm just lazy right!!! I did take some extra time and totally cleaned this machine. It looks nearly brand new now. Once you look at it, you will see that it has only had very light use. All you need now is some string and some grass to trim. Also, this machine makes an edge like no other. So no use bothering buying an edger! So you can kill two birds with one stone. This is a first come first serve sale!!
