I can't speak about the pto one. I do however have the push model, they changed them a little since I got mine, but the pto ones are ~roughly similar. They make a quality product. Built solid, and compared to other brands, metal. Some of the other brands, back then, had things like plastic holding the bearings. In 7ish years I have extremely rarely run into something that will wrap on the head, they don't have an issue with that like other brands, and I often mow stuff over waist high. Things like twine, yes, but about anything will bother with that (a rotary mower would too). I've mowed thick and tall things. Woody things or things like hitting a rock -sometimes cause the string to come out, rarely, but they have a new head design that shouldn't do that as much (not an issue as it is though). Not fully mature but tall hemp, I've cut that down.

I've got a very small area that I call the inner yard, I mow that with this trimmer instead of a push/riding mower, takes about 20 minutes, does a good job. Outer yard I put cows in. Outer areas aren't even, I do them every few weeks with it. It can cover a fairly large area pretty quickly. I've had pro handheld trimmers, I don't see owning one again. I do have a cheap one for just a couple spots, but that's it.

A fair amount of its use is with the Beaver Blade.

Today's Featured Article - Memories of an IH Super A When I was ? up to 10, I worked on my Papaw's farm in Greeneville, TN every summer. As I grew older (7), it was the thrill of my day to ride or drive on the tractor. My Papaw had a 1954 IH Super A that he bought to replace a Cub. My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to ... [Read Article]
