Where can I find an electric cord and extension that is compatible with this ,so I can use it?
Just about any standard 3 prong cord with a round end will work. And you can find those to about anywhere

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.

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

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..

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.

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.
