Every review I've seen is less than kind to the little Weed Eater.

It is cheap....and built cheap........and it's tiny.......but, it'll beat pushing, I guess!

Yeah, too bad JD doesn't make a RER anymore.....:frown:

Your right about the RER...
and looking at your avatar picture I just was reminded again, that is the same frame and body that the Electric 90 made by JD, was built on... great mower design Gas or Electric... :smile:KennyV

I don't want anyone to get the impression that I only like RERs....:laughing:

I have a large lot where I live. Just a little too big to use a walk behind on in the summer heat, but too small to really use a 38" or higher dual-blade tractor wannabe. I had a really nice snapper 41" variable disk-drive, 12.5 hp i/c quiet machine, but it was too big to manuver easily.

The RER suits me well for now....but if I had a dual lot, or my own plot....it'd be way too dinky.

Too true...They are damned cute......:wink:

And, the JD shown in my avatar - and murrays that use the Tecumseh chain drive tranny - can be worked harder than their cuteness belies.
