Title: Commutator end frame bushing failure
Review: I'm not that "enthusiastic" about picking up leaves from the 6 oaks on my property but I like this product overall. I've received one replacement under warranty already (a complete new one in the box)because BD won't spend an extra dollar to put a roller or ball bearing in the commutator end frame! They use a cheap, unlubricated brass(?)bushing that has worn out AGAIN on the replacement. The tool gets noisey, starts vibrating and exhibits sparks in the casing. I can replace the motor for about $22 but I find this most annoying. I've got other garden equipment that I've used for years without ANY repairs. C'mon B&D, upgrade!
