I bought this weedeater back in March of 2020, and I never really care to write product reviews. But after 6 years of use, I have to write a review on this one. This thing is awesome and a beast. I have never drained the gas after the last use at the end of summer, in fact never even changed the sparkplug. And never fails to start in the spring with no more than 3 pulls. I do run premium non-ethanol gas in it like all my other power equipment. I lost it one time off my trailer going down the road, and scuffed it up pretty good with road rash and broke the air cleaner housing off. Ordered all the replacement parts that I needed directly from the manufacturer, and were super cheap. Still cranked within 3 pulls. I decided to try to use the brush blade this year to cut some sapling trees about 3" in a heavy growth patch, and couldn't find the brush blade that came with it. So I ordered a universal fit 9" 20 tooth brush blade kit than had like chainsaw teeth that you can resharpen with a round file like a chainsaw. Worked like a dream, this thing is amazing, I highly recommend. I'll never go back to the overpriced, overrated, super name brand orange weedeater that takes an act of congress to get started every spring.

DO NOT BUY!!! --> UPDATE: I reached out to the seller, which is the Wild Badger company, directly to have them stand behind their product that wasn't even 60 days old. It is now 7/1/26 and they've gone radio silent on 6/16/26 when I asked for a refund. That was the last time I heard from Ting Ting in customer service despite my 2 email follow ups since. Not only did the $170 (and change) weed eater NOT last even 60 days, but we tried EVERYTHING from all the YT videos and manufacturer suggestions to get it started, etc. It literally was working one day and the next it wasn't with no damage done to it. It was hanging properly on the wall where no one could get to it without getting around items on the floor of the garage. This is frustrating that Amazon doesn't stand behind these products for more than 30 days because these companies are getting more and more ridiculous to deal with. Picture added of my husband's hands after trying to start this thing for an hour (as suggested to do by the way and priming, etc.). Mind you, his hands were already calloused.It’s 6/5/26 and we ordered this on 4/18; that’s not when we got it, however yet that is when the 30 day warranty started. So we are just outside of our 30 day window and have only used this a handful of times and today it won’t start. We have tried every video on YT and nothing works! How do we get a replacement or refund?? Our last weed eater, a different brand, lasted 5 years or more!

Ran great for the first few months. A little awkward to use due to the weight and the balance, but it sure has the power! Definitely not easy to use on slopes or hills. It cuts amazingly on the flat tho. It’s definitely not a professional trimmer, but it held its own, at least at first anyways. Having an issue with the fuel/air system on it now. Even with 2 carb cleans, and new filters, and then even a brand new carb, it still wants to cut out now. It just keeps stalling out. I definitely got my money out of it already, but I am mildly disappointed at the moment with it.

I am genuinely impressed with this trimmer. I've been using it with blades to get rid of two to three inch branches and weed stalks. This has power enough to get through everything I've thrown it at. Doesn't use a lot of fuel, either, which is nice. Fuel ratio is 50:1.Has an easy-start pull that takes some getting used to if you're used to drop pulls. I've never had it miss. Using it a few times a week on a farm and it has proven to be one of the more reliable trimmers I've owned.Only complaint - The handles. Wish they could be mounted farther down for better control. As it is, they're perfectly usable, but I'd like them in a different position.I have no qualms buying this exact model again. Also, invest in a different harness. The one it comes with is functional, but not the most comfortable.

I don't think you will find a better deal on a Bush cutter. I thought I wanted to an Echo bush cutter since my Echo string trimmer has been so reliable but at nearly $600 and with a significantly smaller motor home depot cured me of that. My experiences so far are as follows: I have a commercial lot that I have to maintain to certain level to avoid citations that has several areas that have deep rusts or old hidden stumps I dare not venture with my mower and my string trimmer constantly gets weeds wrapped around the spindle which need to be cleared and needs an adapter for brush clearing blades which is a hassle getting the right components so I decided to buy the right tool for the job. First attempt I loaded up and as a precaution I tried to start it and made many attempts to start it following the supplied instructions but was unsuccessful and wasted an evening thinking it must be old gas which ran fine on my string trimmer. Apparently there are 2 sets of starting instructions, the one that comes in the box and one online here. The next time I tried to start it days later according to the online instructions i started it without issue. Mine however does not or has yet to start on 2nd pull as it claims and is actually almost difficult to start cold. I am using it strictly as a brush cutter and have used 3 different style blades. The supplied blade does an ok job however the guard needs to be removed or modified as mine has been to make it of any use because the curve of the guard goes down so far it hits the groud several inches below the blade not allowing a very close cut at all. This can be remedy with a heat gun or torch bending the guard upwards as in the attached photo. I can't speak to the level of safety this modification provides but any guard is better than no guard. The circular saw blades work good but with those the fewer teeth the better and buy a heavy or thick one. The kind I used are a bit flimsy since the first collision with an unseen obstacle warped it beyond any quick fix I could make. I next tried the blade with the chainsaw teeth,, a 2 pack cost about what a 3 pack of the flimsy blades did, and it cuts like a dream in open areas but forget about edging or string trimmer work. I cut through thickets without effort and at times when weeds would seem to be wrapped around the blade and spindle which would need to be manually cleared before, only required the application of throttle and a brief shaking to sling it off and work resumes. I also cut a few oak tree branches, the largest cut was 4 to 5 inches and it handled it with ease doing the work of a pole saw. You will need a harness of some type, and adjusting the handle bars to your preference will take some time but easy to do. The supplied harness is not good quality and I bit and bought the Amazon recommended harness which is slightly better garbage than the supplied harness and didn't last an entire session before requiring some in field repairs. I bought a much simpler, better padded over the shoulder type of sling and found it performs as well or better and far less complicated and cost the same $15 as the harness that the front clasp kept separating on although was not overly tightened or under stress and has a quick disconnect that is a joke and far more dangerous than not having a quick disconnect at all. So forger about the quick start, buy a chainsaw tooth blade And a padded sling you will have a powerful brush clearing, limb cutting inexpensive beast in your tool arsenal.

I use this trimmer on a farm as a replacement for a standard trimmer and it is a BEAST yet extremely cheap. Go to Home Depot and see what a standard trimmer costs these days. These are better and half the cost of a name brand with half the power.It came with everything you need. For someone using it all of the time you would want to get a better harness. But the included one works fine. You cannot use it without a harness unless you have four hands.Assembly is easy. It comes with all tools and parts.The motor is a very high compression motor. It starts with a tiny pull (maybe 1/3 of the length of the starter cord or less. Literally one compression cycle of the cylinder). I mean VERY tight compression. In fact, my wife probably couldn’t start it. But the short pull is welcome if you don’t start it before harnessing.It doesn’t smoke. It doesn’t die. It doesn’t bog down. It doesn’t act stupid like some of my past trimmers have. It doesn’t die when it gets hot. It hasn’t overheated and I’ve treated it like a swamp mule.I use .105 trimmer string in it and it has no trouble happily spinning it through very dense weeds and brush. I have never felt that it lacked for power. With .105 string it has flung a half buried brick a couple of feet.The parts seem heavy duty. It is not light. But if you really need to cut large swaths of dense weeds and grass, this thing is unstoppable.It has never failed to start on the first pull in a couple of months of medium use.Note it takes a 50:1 mix. Don’t be dumb and buy premixed gas for 24 dollars a gallon. Get a gas can, ethanol free gas, and several months worth of oil for the same price. Take a sharpie and mark the fuel tank 50:1 and mark that gas can 50:1 and you will live a happy life.The plastic is heavy duty. Nothing has broken. This has a heavy duty shaft as well (hence heavier) that should last a long time. I haven’t tried the blade attachment and don’t plan to.Refilling the trimmer line is easy and parts don’t pop off and spring away when you do it.Zero complaints. Just get one.I paid full price. No one wants to give me free things for my reviews and I wouldn’t take them if they did. I’m a proud farmer and I don’t BS.

It seems that Wild Badger no longer stands behind the product, as some reviews state. I could not find any type of “online ticketing system” for customer issues. My options were to call or email customer service.I purchased the 52cc 2 months ago. I used it once with the blade. It took over an hour to get it started. When it finally did, the blade was OK. Not amazing but seemed to get the job done. I followed the directions to switch to the trimmer head. The directions online and the directions on YouTube were not specific. They simply stated I should remove the blade and “flange” and screw on the trimmer head, which I did. When I turned it on, the trimmer head did not rotate. So, I tried to remove it and see if I did something wrong. The head would not come back off. I tried for days to remove that head and finally contacted the customer service via email. I received a response about 24 hours later. They were able to tell me, just from my description that I attached the head without the “spacer/washer” in place. I reread through the instructions I had and found no mention of that anywhere. I am not mechanically inclined which is why I closely follow instructions. Had those instructions been there, i would not have the issue I have. They told me to buy a new lower shaft and spool. When I responded and pointed out that the instructions were not clear and this appears to be a common issue, the response was “hopefully you can uninstall the attachment”.I could not get the head removed and, in fact, the metal on the head began to easily chip away. So, I ordered the piece as instructed. Had to pay an extra $10 for shipping. It has been 5 days since I placed the order and according to the tracking website, it still hasn’t even left the warehouse so…so much for overnight shipping and all of that. I think that great customer service review is likely untrue and paid for or they got rid of that department. My experience has been very disappointing and I do not recommend purchasing if you need clear instructions and prompt customer service.

good

This 26cc is powerful enough to handle a variety of backyard trimming. Great machine, used all the attachments in first week and worked like a charm. The engine started right away using 50:1 high octane fuel/oil blend (I would recommend.) There was only one issue when installing the handle, one of the bolts broke through he plastic but contacted customer support and they are sending me a new handle. Still worthy of 5 stars No need to pay hundreds more! Great value for the price.

The blade attachment causes extreme vibration. I am of normal height, weight and strength, and was not able to control it. The vibration caused the trigger to burn my hand through heavy gloves, caused grease to leak from the attachment head and caused the pin that holds the shaft together to come out after mere seconds. Had that gone unnoticed, the blade and lower portion of the shaft could have easily gone flying to kill or maim someone. Not just crap, but wildly dangerous crap. The seller refuses to issue a refund, saying that I have to return the item first, but neither Amazon nor any other shipping company will accept items that have held fuel. This essentially equates to refusing to provide a refund for a defective product. Amazon's automated response is telling me that I am not eligible for an A to Z refund because I have to contact the seller, which I did four days ago, with him giving me a nonsensical response. I am disgusted with the product, the seller and Amazon. Stay safe, stay away from the Wild Badger trimmer!

I own a lawncare company and I need my machines to work 100%. The only reason this trimmer got a one star is because it comes with detachable shaft. Other wise this trimmer dies out when it gets hot and I have trouble starting it back up. I only had it for a couple of weeks and it's a contestant problem. It came to a point that if I didn't have a backup trimmer I would have lost out a lot of money. And the funny part is that I was hoping to make this my go to company. But definitely not anymore. Sad to say. I really did have high hopes. Don't buy. Save your money.

Love its wild badger . Hedge trimmer cuts 3/4 inch branches no problem. The trimmer is awesome too its a speed winder . Polesaw looks good . Have not tried it . Hard to get parts. I wore the upper shaft out. And they don't offer it on the website. I had this trimmer for over a year I put on roughly 6 hours A-day whole time using this and the engine rums liking new . has lots of power..
