Help me Select Gas Trimmer
Robin, that explains the "Factory Recertified" JD RCS400 I saw at Home
Depot today. I couldn't find this model number on JD web site. Is
it safe toI assume it is a Factory Recertified S 1400?
Stihl FS45 is a curved Shaft. Is there a difference in durability
difference between a straight shaft vs. curved shaft?

I am looking for a reliable trimmer that is comfortable to use. Any
comments or suggestions? Thanks in advance.
I had a S1400. I liked the attachments but it just failed.The starter pull
stopped retracting. I went shopping for a replacement that would work with
the attachments. I noticed that Home Depot had a load of reconditioned JDs
for $80. I think they had a lot of problems with these machines and no
longer sell them under the JD name. My experience certainly has soured me to
the brand even though I have a JD snowblower that works every time. I passed
on the JD trimmer and got a Toro I would have bought the Ryobi if it was
stocked in any of my local stores.
