Light, comfortable and powerful. I agree with other reviewer here about the quality at the price point. Definitely is a high value item. The power surprised me, switching from string to blade was quick and easy. The included blade took care of a long row of tall oak suckers,palmetto bushes and big fat weeds. Nice included tool. I bought this to do side jobs brush cutting and After one tank run through it. I am happy with performance.
There are no instructions for loading the spool with string but I have experience loading all the major brands so I was able to figure out on my own but they should have instructions. I am 6’1” and it is the only trimmer I have used that feels good height wise for me.
I have used a Makita 4 stroke to clear a lot and a Stihl Fs90 to clear brush(loop handle with blade) and this is on par or better in some ways than both. Mine started right up and was easy to restart with one pull. Time will tell how this holds up. Manufacturer warranty is 2 years commercial or residential that’s really great.I couldn’t see any different between this and the husky brushcutter so I got this one for $50 less. This will see a fair amount of use at least a tank of gas a week or more so I hope it holds up.
Mine came with the Torx bit on the end of the plug nut wrench and a separate hex key along with the pin to change trimmer head.
Pros:
Plastic housing looks durable
Lightweight
Comfortable
Powerful 28 cc motor
Versatile
Other features as stated in description
Cons
Blade guard is big and slightly awkward when string trimming tight spots not a big deal and can simply remove
Handlebar adjustment is also slightly awkward for me.

High quality unit at a fantastic price.
Highly recommended for light to medium grass work. The unit is as light as practical for the task and well balanced.Assembly takes about 5 minutes. The unit included an Allen key necessary to assemble handle bars but was without the torx (30 I believe) to attach the grass shield and harness hook. Not sure the need for torx screws.Fuel tank is surprisingly small and best accessed with a funnel.Unit started very easy and ran as it should with good throttle and power.Bump feed grass head was preloaded with cord.The unit was supplied with a metal 4 tipped grass blade for heavier grass clearing.The unit shipped with a comfortable harness and small bottle of 2 stroke oil. No eye or hearing protection was included.For those unfamiliar with the Jonsered brand they are essentially a rebrand husqvarna. I am not sure which is the premium brand of the two.Quality is high. You wont find better at the orange or blue hardware chains and this is about half the price.I have 6 or 7 brush cutters up to husqvarna 65cc clearing saw. My wife actually wanted this unit for her garden work but I have used and wouldn't question using this myself. While not intended for heavy brush - it should tackle most jobs the average yard could ask of it.
