Do you guys use them or would you rather pay for the OEM parts?

Well at dealer pricing there cheaper than OEM parts but retail price there pretty much the same price. Warranty is 30 days at most on either but Stens is 90 days warranty. I buy OEM, Oregon, Rotary, and Stens parts.

Stens has a 1 year warranty on parts. Oregon is lifetime, which basically is lifetime of the part, not lifetime of the unit, or the owner.

If your interested I could get you some pricing on OEM or aftermarket blades.

I need an atomic blade for a toro proline and a set of micro cut Honda blades also a carburator for a hrr2168vka and a pair of rubber for the wheels on a hr215. A set of blades for a poulon pro hedge trimmer how much for all of these? Just curious I already got a few quotes.from a few local places
