Breezy, is the front panel available as a replacement panel in the color you desire? Just a thought. I needed stainless And was able to purchase the panel. Husband bought a new weed walker. Gas powered. He can start the damn thing, I’ve only been able to start t once. Did I I say how messy the lawn looks untrimmed? “I don’t know why starting this is such a problem.” Between rain and not being home 3 weeks have passed. Vindication! It would not start for him this evening! . Dan, IDK why starting this is such a problem. Operator error problem?

starting this is such a problem. Why I switched to electric garden tools. Battery or extension cord. Have extra batteries so this choice is even better. Always starts.

claude, treat yourself to a battery operated weed whacker. Buy another small tool that you might use that also uses the same battery. It makes life so much simpler. Because of various tools purchased over the last few years, we are up to eleven batteries, and the batteries are interchangeable among the tools…leaf blower…tiny chainsaw that I can handle…flashlights…a drill for hubby. We have the black and decker and I’d really hate to be without it…yes, we have a spare. Even with my mobility issues, I can use this trimmer. It’s quite satisfying.

I have some Worx rechargeable tools, and also love them! I got a deal on them several years ago, with two double powered batteries, and with one of those double powered batteries, I can weed wack my entire garden and yard, even with my screwed up shoulder - about 3½ hours, with a couple breaks, especially in the heat, and still have some power left. And something that I really couldn't believe was how long the line lasted on the weed wacker, given that it was thinner than the heavy duty 2 cycle, plus, the spool didn't hold as much - something that I was suspicious about at first, and would have sent it all back, if I didn't like it! Another part of the deal, though I only used it once, to get a number of spools, was "free spools for life", but you pay shipping (cheaper for me to buy a large amount of line). I got a decent blower, convenient to use for most things, until fall comes around! And I hot a good hedge trimmer, with a small section I use the most, and a long one. Later, I got a deal on a saber saw - 39.99, with no battery. I use that more than most other saws outside. A friend, who had major problems with his 2 cycle WW, tried mine out one day, and couldn't believe how light it was, and he bought one almost immediately!

binnylou we have the B&D trimmer and drill with interchangeable battery packs. That trimmer is so light and quite powerful that even my gimpy self can use it with nary a problem.

Peacefully watching tv with the volume set at a comfortable level when a dang commercial comes on and the increased volume about knocks me off of the couch always makes my blood boil!

"require commercials to have the same average volume as the programs they accompany" and you can file a complaint if they do not.

When you go out and catch a WiFi signal to email one of your child's teachers asking her to call to discuss the assignments since our internet is out and she responds two hours later with an email asking when would be a good time to call, which of course I didn't get until I went back out for WiFi three days later.
