Factory Reconditioned Expand-It ZR15518 Edger Attachment For String Trimmers Review
I ordered this edger as my first attachment for the Troy-Bilt TB70SS 2-cycle string trimmer I purchased locally last summer. Troy-Bilt 31cc 2-Cycle Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer With SpeedLock #TB70SS Having read the reviews here and recognizing that some have had trouble with the "universal" nature of the Expand-It attachments on various machines, I was inclined to be skeptical.
I need not have worried. The attachment arrived in good shape, and appeared to be in never-used condition. The only indication that it is not new is the "RECON" mark heat-stamped into the plastic near the curb guard. The attachment mated perfectly with my power unit, and off I went.
It took about 20 feet of sidewalk before I got the hang of edging with this attachment; following that, the job went fast. Homelite says that light contact with the sidewalk or curb wlll not damage the blade. Good thing, because on this first cut of a never-edged sidewalk the sparks were occasionally flying! Now that I can see the edge I anticipate future jobs will be easier.
This appears to be a sturdy, well-built tool. Buying factory-reconditioned is a little like eating pot-luck, but the total I paid, including shipping, is about two-thirds the lowest price I found for new attachments.
