Factory Reconditioned Expand-It ZR15518 Edger Attachment For String Trimmers

Expand-it Edger Attachment. 9" Double edge hardened steel blade for tough jobs. Expand-it tools fit many attachment capable trimmer brands including Ryobi, Homelite, Toro, Weed Eater, Troy Bilt, and many others. Requires no tools, no adaptors to connect to power head and shaft.
Customer Review: A good worker right out of the box
I ordered this edger as my first attachment for the Troy-Bilt TB70SS 2-cycle string trimmer I purchased locally last summer. Troy-Bilt 31cc 2-Cycle Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer With SpeedLock #TB70SS Having read the reviews here and recognizing that some have had trouble with the "universal" nature of the Expand-It attachments on various machines, I was inclined to be skeptical. I need not have worried. The attachment arrived in good shape, and appeared to be in never-used condition. The only indication that it is not new is the "RECON" mark heat-stamped into the plastic near the curb guard. The attachment mated perfectly with my power unit, and off I went. It took about 20 feet of sidewalk before I got the hang of edging with this attachment; following that, the job went fast. Homelite says that light contact with the sidewalk or curb wlll not damage the blade. Good thing, because on this first cut of a never-edged sidewalk the sparks were occasionally flying! Now that I can see the edge I anticipate future jobs will be easier. This appears to be a sturdy, well-built tool. Buying factory-reconditioned is a little like eating pot-luck, but the total $40 I paid, including shipping, is about two-thirds the lowest price I found for new attachments.
Customer Review: good for the price
The product was like new. The price was over half off similar products from other manufacturers. And it did the job I wanted it to do.
