    Xmas gift for my husband. Red lever broke off during shipment, but was easily re-attached once found. Waiting for warm weather to really try it out.

    1st. I have never had a problem with Amazon and I am glad I purchased NEW through Amazon.

    I have had a Weed eater SST25 for over 10 yrs and this is the new replacement. I was very pleased with the Weed-eater. I just received the Poulan P2500 and the box looked as if they rolled it from California to Louisiana and it rattled when I picked it up.

    Beware if you are having this shipped to you!!

    Packaging sucks and plastic pieces are poorly designed. I will report on how the trimmer actually works when I get the piece I need to replace. The AirBox, pn 530059267, came out broken in three pieces. It is suppose to be a single molded part. I was fortunate that it wasn’t four or five pieces.

    Read the return policy. Since this is a gasoline operated device, it can not be returned – safety shipping issues. Poulan Manual clearly states not to return the product to retailer. It is a slight hassle to get to Poulan Warranty because of their automated phone system.

    If you buy the product at a store, make certain the box has NO damage or you can look at the actual trimmer. Open the plastic cover on the side of the engine to reveal the orange air cleaner holder and inspect that the choke handle works, remove the air filter and watch the choke move. Inspect the air box and make sure it has no cracks and is whole. DO NOT buy an OPENED box.

    If you are having the product shipped, be prepared to receive it with something broken. It is poorly packaged. My box appeared unopened yet when I opened the box, the contents appeared as if it had been repackaged because parts and manual and an empty bag came out with no packaging holding them, nor protecting them.

    I am an engineer so repairing this one will be relatively simple once I get the part. I almost bought the refurbished Weed-Eater SST225 but I am glad I did not. The only reason I bought this online was because I could not find the P2500 nor the SST25 locally. I hope this one works as well as the SST25 and if so, it will be worth the minor inconvenience.

    Excellent product, and you can’t beat the price. The first time it shipped to me, it got bent over before reaching my house. But Amazon was very helpful with getting it returned via FedEx, and the second time was a charm.

    The Poulan trimmer arrived as promised but the plastic choke was broken off at the stem so I couldn’t start it. Amazon immediately sent me a second one

    but it also had a broken choke. Amazon stands behind their products so I am awaiting a refund. I didn’t want to go for three.
