Craftsman 25cc Gas Line Trimmer 79101

Date Published: 1/4/07

Its 25cc two-cycle engine is fairly low-power for a gas-run string trimmer, but the Craftsman Gas Line Trimmer 79101 (Sears item 07179101000) offers plenty of other features to make it worth the less-than-$90 price.

The 52-inch straight shaft gives you a good amount of length to access tough-to-reach places, making it easier to trim under bushes and shrubs or around fences and other landscaping elements. The Craftsman 79101 gas line trimmer features the EZ Fire enhanced fuel delivery system, which takes a lot of the trouble out of starting the unit. You just prime the engine, flip a switch, and give it a pull.

This value-conscious trimmer has a 17-inch cutting diameter, which is a fairly wide swath, and weighs only 9 pounds. A good choice for light to moderate grass and weed trimming, the Craftsman 79101 gas line trimmer comes with a 1-year limited warranty.
