I HAVE OWNED AND USED SHINDAIWA 2-STROKE LAWN EQUIPMENT SINCE LATE 80"S. I STILL HAVE TWO T-27'S AND A T-270 AS OUR GO TO TRIMMERS. WE ALSO HAVE SHINDAIWA BACK PACK BLOWER THAT WE HAVE HAD SINCE THE FIRST T-27 WAS PURCHASED, AS WELL AS A HEDGE TRIMMER AND A PUMP SPRAYER THAT WERE PURCHASED LATER AND ARE BOTH OVER 20 YEARS OLD. I BOUGHT THIS TRIMMER JUNE 2020, A BRUSH T-282 TRIMMER AND A BACK PACK BLOWER IN 2019. THESE ITEMS WERE PURCHASED STRICTLY DUE TO NEEDING ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT.THE FIRST EQUIPMENT WE PURCHASED IS STILL OUR FIRST GO TO EQUIPMENT. I "DID NOT EVEN CONSIDER A ANOTHER BRAND" DUE TO HOW SHINDAIWA POWER PRODUCTS HOLD UP"! I ALWAYS PULLED ROUTINE MAINTENANCE PER THE BOOK MYSELF ON ALL OF OUR SHINDAIWA EQUIPMENT AND USED SHINDAIWA OIL EXCLUSIVELY. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS EQUIPMENT "ALWAYS" STARTED EACH SPRING FIRST TIME AND WAS RUN HARD UNTIL THE END OF MOWING SEASON WITH ABSOLUTELY NO ISSUES. THE FIRST TIME TWO T-27 TRIMMERS AND THE FIRST BACK PACK BLOWER WERE IN A REPAIR SHOP SINCE NEW WAS JUNE 2020 AND THAT WAS ONLY BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE TIME TO REPLACE HAND GRIPS,THROTTLE CABLES ON THE T-27'S OR THE THROTTLE CABLE ON BACK PACK BLOWER MYSELF. FIRST TIME THOSE ITEMS HAD EVER BEEN REPLACED SINCE NEW. SHINDAIWA EQUIPMENT IS DEFINITELY A TOP DEPENDABLE BRAND.

Everything went smooth....

*** was very helpfull in answering all my questions about the different trimmers. I've had a T27 Shindaiwa for 20-25 years with never having a problem. So I was interested in what has replaced the T27. After doing a lot of checking and comparing in sizes and functions with ***'s help we came to the T302X. I'm very happy with it so far and expect to be for another 20-25 years. I received a good price and it was shipped the day I ordered it and I received it the next day. Thanks again *** for all your help. If we ever need any more equipment you handle you will have my business. Thanks again. ***
