Customer Reviews for Southland 22 in. 150cc Walk Behind OHV Gas String Trimmer Mower

Love the ease in starting, re-stringing and overall operation.

Assembly took only 20 minutes out of the box and it started right off. I decided to put it to the test immediately by tackling an area of thick, high weeds that no other trimmer could even touch. All I can say is WOW. Mowed everything right down to the ground with little to no effort ! I have never used a gas trimmer this effective. This trimmer laughs at jobs other trimmers back away from. Very easy to use and not hard at all to push. It is extremely well built, and truly made to last. There have been very few pieces of lawn maintenance machinery over the years that I could say I truly enjoyed using, but this definitely tops the list ! I only wish I could give it more than 5 stars !!

GREAT WEED EATER, STRONG GAS MOTOR, 3 PRIME PUSHES 1 OR 2 PULLS AND IT STARTS.. CUTS MOST LARGE WEEDS EASILEY

I waited a few extra days to do this review to make sure I wasn't dreaming about the performance of this trimmer. Easy assembly, (attach handle and wheels) started right up, easy to move and manipulate even in tight places. This 22" wide cut trimmer went through thick brush and even ate 3/8 - 1/2 inch trunk small trees that needed to go. The line (.155) is tough, and easy to replace. No more tapping the trimmer head and pray for line to come out. I further found that the two 18 inch precut pieces of line were available at Home Depot, But - found it more economical to buy their 100 ft roll of .155 string and cut my own replacement lines. This, by far is one of the best products home depot has to offer if you've got thick brush or a field to clear!

This is just what we needed. My Husband and I are both disabled and can not use the regular trimmer, so we got this to weed eat the yard. It is easy to push rather than having to lift a regular trimmer. It has large tires to make it go anywhere. We have some land behind the house and it is grown up so we have even used it in the high grass and it works just fine.

I have had this 22 in. walk behind trimmer for a couple of weeks now. was very well packaged and easy to put together. I like the 12 in. wheels that make pushing it easy. Make sure you add the oil it comes with before starting it up. started on two pulls for me. I trimmed a large field and it cut very well. I did not have to replace the line yet,but it is very easy to replace. Good looking machine

This is just what I needed to mow along some ditches at our farm. I bush hog a pretty good size field about 3 times a year and a ditch runs through it, as well as along the end of the field. Some places are pretty deep and I always have to run the tractor a good ways away from them for fear of the tractor sliding off into the ditch. Previously, I have used a couple of different kinds of weedeaters as well as a long handled sling blade which is time consuming and tiring. With this, it is easy to go right along them and cut back all of the grass so that I can easily see the ditch edge. It is also handy to cut along the fence rows and along a lane through the woods. The .155 inch string works well and lasts unless you try to wear out a tree or woody plant with it. As long as you are mowing weeds and grass, it lasts a while. I recommend buying a roll of the string though if you use it as long as I did. It comes with strings on it and 4 extra. It was easy to assemble by sliding the wheels on the axles and using a socket to tighten the nuts. Pop on a couple of plastic hubcaps and installing one nut on the rubber shield. The handle goes on easily with two large plastic wing nuts. It probably took a total of 5 minutes to do all of that and to add oil, which is also included. Don't just pour the bottle of oil in without stopping to check the level, as I found that it didn't quite take all of the oil to show that it was full. I primed the bulb three times and it started on the second pull. I am not sure who manufactures the engine, but it has a Southland sticker on it. Time will tell how well this machine is built, especially on our place. I should have bought one of these long ago.
