New Lawn Equipment and the EPA
Comments (37)Really if it is a new piece of equipment ill be da**ed if they dont fix it for free under warranty tells me you must have been bought it from wal-mart or sears or somewhere of the likes. They dont honor warranty once its been ran more than 3 hours. But since its new take it back to wherever it was purchased. You should have no problem gitn yor cash back and then go to yor local tractor supply and buy it. They will fix it 4 free 10 years from now minus normal wear and tear.. And F**CK the E.P.A volcanos put out more harmfull emissions in 1 minute than every car in the whole wide world does in 1 year....See MoreA good cordless weedeater?
Comments (5)Hi there, I just sold my super dupa all in one top of the line weedeater and bought a $20 Black and decker and it is great. i use it one handed and its good for lawn touch ups and edging my flower bed and going around my benches in my yard etc. It does need a cable though, i have a 100 ft one, but thats no big deal. this is so much easier to use than my old one, have a look i can recommend it: http://www.amazon.com/Black-Decker-ST1000-Electric-Trimmer/dp/B000087R4E/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1276113820&sr=8-2...See Morebattery operated lawn equipment.
Comments (20)I was so bummed out about the dead battery after 3 months. I had ordered from QVC even though the product was advertised on TV. The return policy was 30 days. This morning I thought that I would just call QVC and see what they said. Since I did not get any documentation with the product (Worx edger & blower, which I love) I did not know about the 1 yr warranty on the battery and 2 yr warranty on the units. They referred me to their website for a copy of the warranty but I could not find it. I called Worx Customer Service which QVC gave me, and they are (no questions asked), sending me another battery in 7-10 days. The instructions she gave me on recharging are entirely different from what I had read or seen on TV. The battery comes with some charge. You use it and let it run totally down, then after it has cooled down you recharge all the way up. When you have finished using the units you take the battery out. Do not store with battery intact. I had read customer reviews on a review site and it seems that 9 out of 10 people were having battery problems. A second battery is $80 and no guarantee that the same thing would not happen again. With new instructions I hope all will be well....See MoreCordless lawnmowers, any good?
Comments (2)I think it will be fine for the job. Make sure it will cut the whole lawn on one charge, anything up to about 500 square metres. The battery is like a car battery, it should be left on charge between mowings and will need replacing every few years, maybe once every ten years with low use. The Concorde 32C is a cylinder mower. This means it is best suited to cutting fescue (quality ornamental) grasses and cutting them short. It tends to tear the "family" rye grasses especially when cutting at longer lengths. It should really be sharpened by a professional every year or two or the cut quality will suffer. You can't sharpen it yourself. It is not good for cutting wet grass, bumpy lawns, or grass that has grown very long. This is the mower for the bowling green look, assuming you have the right grass. If you have a bumpy lawn, a tough family grass, or just like to have the grass grow longer than an inch and a half (the 32C highest setting) then look for a rotary mower. You can get them with a roller to make stripes, you can sharpen them yourself for the best cut quality. Cordless rotaries will tend to be more expensive because they have a higher power, but they will cut just about any grass, any length, wet or dry, without binding, and you can have the cut at 2" or 3" depending on the model....See MoreUser
