CRAFTSMAN 3.5-A Electric String Trimmer with Self-Adjusting Spool and 12-in Cutting Radius is rated 3.0 out of 5 by 48.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Trims Grass & Weeds Really Well The CRAFTSMAN 3.5-A Electric String Trimmer cuts really well. However, the cord did come loose a few times while using the Trimmer. Not from being pulled but from a loose outlet/connection on the Trimmer which should not have happened as it's a new product and it was only used the one time.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lightweight And Easy ti Use! I purchased this whipper snippet for light duty jobs and it met all of my expectations!! Easy to use for newbie snippers!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Works well at first I thought this worked very well for the first couple months I used it but seems like many others I had the problem that the line feeding out just stops working and no online support available for how to fix it. Guess it’s time to buy something new in a different brand

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Trimmer does not work Trimmer stopped working. Didn't even last a month.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from String feed doesn’t work correctly Initially it worked quite well. I used it without any issues for several weeks. About half way through the first spool, the line stopped feeding. I replaced it with the correct parts and it still doesn’t work. I can probably use it for 10 feet before I have to take off the cap and pull the string out myself. Extremely frustrating and makes the job much longer. Not a good product..

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to rewind spool I had been looking for a single line feeding trimmer as the dual line feeds are much harder to rewind by hand. This one fit the bill and does everything I need it to do as I just use it around my own property. It is helpful that for edging you can remove the guard at the front of the spool.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Autofeed is problematic I would give this a much higher rating if the autofeed on the string worked. I'm off to pick up the prewound spool and see if that fixes it. I've been using the correct size string, but the string I picked up is not a Craftsman brand, so I'm still troubleshooting.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Terrible, string feed stop working, no parts avail Terrible, string feed stop working, no parts available. I had this about a year and it stopped working. I only have a small front yard! WEAK PRODUCT
