Hmmm. I skipped Snapper's stand at GIE....but looking at that pic, it's a Husqy. The bump head and trigger grip are all Husqy. It's either a 122 (possibly the worst trimmer I've ever encountered) or a 128... Hard to tell from the pic. Either way, homeowner grade stuff, nothing new or worth looking in to.

They were in this business before and wondered why they got out. I remember seeing lots of Snapper string trimmers around, maybe 25 years ago.

The old snapper trimmers were very powerful but a little heavy.

I will not even be looking at anything new snapper comes out with.
I am a snapper fan used their mowers for years. Now they are just walmart junk.
