Title: Remington Axcess trimmer
Review: I just wore out my 3rd Remington trimmer. I've decided the problem is that the motor is underpowered. Three amps is not enough. Many reviewers complained about the cheap parts and shoddy design. Maybe so, but the combo of underpowered AND poor drive design makes this item unacceptable. I felt stupid when I bought my third one because I needed one to trim my decorative trees and shrubs. It's light enough, has reciprocating blades, has a long reach and does a great job....until the motor burns out and the blades seize on a branch. That's the beginning of the end for this piece of junk.Taking the cover off the cam mechanism, you can free up the works but from then on it only works on small growth items for a while and then nothing. I even saved the first two units for parts, but the only parts I need is a new motor every time. These trimmers are not cheap but I can't find any other like it. I want one with 5 amps minimum and it cannot be a chain saw type.
Is the review positive or negative?
