Likewise, had mine for about 5 years. Mine would over heat and often afterward be difficult to keep idle. At different times earlier in it's life I used it for trimming down wood brush and tilling rows with the attachments.
I bought an electric last week for the battery. It's super light and hopefully it will hold up for just weed whacking. I'll keep the gas one for bigger needs.
Almost bought this, but not having a quick feed head kills it for me.
Sure, you can buy an aftermarket one, but makes it less of deal.
I feel like every trimmer these days should come with a quick feed head.
I've had my Hitachi gas trimmer for 11 years, last year I replaced the carb for $25, still runs great.
It just started having a little bit of a carburetor issue that I was planning on fixing. Parts are readily available and cheap.
Now, I can wait for the new one to show up and then take my time fixing the old one. 👍
One of the best things that you can do for these units is to only use non-ethanol gas.
This.
Husky or 'somebody else'.

Read the 1 star reviews.
Most of those one star reviews are from people who thought they were getting a reconditioned trimmer, when it really wasn't. If it was truly factory reconditioned, i might jump on it. Doesn't look like it is though, so I will pass.
Was out running both Husky and Echo equipment today.
That said, if you want a GREAT leaf blower, check this from Echo. It puts a smile on my face. https://www.echo-usa.com/blowers/pb-9010t
Bought this same one 9 years ago and it's still running fine. Non-ethanol gas helps.

According to the website it says Factory refurbished. 🤷🏻

Used the Echo saw today. Need to get going with the log splitter. Good times!
