Lowes website has "Factory" refurbished string trimmers available. I tried to confirm the "factory" was Husquvarna and that if I added their pre-mix fuel it would extend the warranty to five years, but I could not get the Husqvarna website chat bot to work. Calling the customer phone number had an AI tell me to the website and then dropped the call. Now that is some extraordinary service! Seems the main difference is the 130L does not take accessories, and the 330LK can have the string trimmer replaced with a pole saw, rotating broom etc. I am not 100% sure but after dissecting specs it SEEMS both can have the string bump head swapped out for a brush cutting blade The 330LK also has a separate brush cutter accessory. Here are the links:

Here is the fuel:

Both fuel and gas must be purchased on the same invoice to qualify for the extended warranty, IF it applies to these products. The Husky website does not eliminate refurbished products used non-commercial from the deal.
I know there are a lot of Stihl fans out there that will say these are junk and nothing but problems, but the Amazon, Lowes and TSC reviews are pretty decent. The Amazon reviews seem to include the previous model to 130L so those may not be 100%. These are relatively new models so the online reviews are pretty limited, but the negatives ones mostly cite starting and running problems. My research suggests Sthil is the best, but also 2 - 3x the cost.

I think I'd rather spend a little more and get a Stihl.
You were saying?
