Almost every Craftsman weed trimmer is covered with a warranty, but they aren’t all the same, so I can’t say that every model comes with a (for example) 3-year warranty, but you can be sure that there is a warranty on almost every model.

Craftsman Weed Eater Models in 2018
Craftsman Gas Weed Eater With 25cc 2-Cycle Engine
The first Craftsman edger trimmer I want to show you is probably the weakest one and it is made for beginners and for yards which aren’t that hard to maintain. This Craftsman 25cc weed eater doesn’t come with a very powerful engine, but it gets the job done. The reason why I think it is good for beginners is that it is light, it comes with a straight shaft and it is easy to use. It is not the best quality Craftsman gas weed eater, but if you don’t need a beast it is a good product. The straight shaft makes it easy to trim all those tricky places in the yard and you can easily control it with adjustable handle. It would be better if the Craftsman trimmer comes with a telescopic shaft, but at this time, the only adjustable thing on the trimmer is the handle. It is probably the basic Craftsman gas trimmer model.
Pros:
It is light, easy to use and it gets the job done.
It comes with an adjustable handle.
Cons:
It could be better quality and more durable.
Craftsman Gas Weed Eater With 25cc 2-cycle Engine & Easy 3-step Start
The best part about this Craftsman trimmer is the fact that you can choose to get a straight shaft or a curved one because it comes in two versions. The Craftsman 25cc weed eater has a similar motor as the model above, but this one is made with more care about details. For example, this Craftsman 25cc gas trimmer comes with multi-tool attachment system so you can change Craftsman weed eater head by the job you have to do in your yard. The entire Craftsman gas trimmer is made of powder-coated steel frame so you can expect durability from this model. The 3-step start consists of prime, flip and pull which means that you can easily start the Craftsman weed trimmer even if you aren’t experienced with gas trimmers. The engine might not be as powerful as the Craftsman 30cc weed wacker, but it will get the job done if you don’t have a jungle in your backyard.

It is also a Craftsman 4-cycle weed eater which is more convenient than models with 2-cycle engines. The trimmer comes with a 2-step start that consists of prime and pull, which is even simpler than the start on the models above. This is a strong trimmer so you can expect an 18“ cutting line that comes with it and that will make the job done very quickly. It comes with an adjustable handle so you can call it a user-friendly Craftsman weed wacker if you want. The straight shaft is compatible with other Craftsman weed wacker attachments so you can have a multi-tool in your garage or the shed.

Now that we are done with the Craftsman gas trimmer models, I will show you a few Craftsman cordless trimmer models which come with different batteries. This one is one of the strongest in their offer because it comes with a 40V battery. This Craftsman cordless weed eater is also a Craftsman edger so you can use it like that. The only thing you have to do to transform it to an edger is a twist of the shaft and within seconds you can use it as a completely different gardening tool. The best part about Craftsman battery weed eater models is the fact that they are light, they don’t need gas and they don’t have a cord. That is why Craftsman electric weed eater models are so popular on the market.
Pros:

It is both a trimmer and an edger.
Cons:
It is not as strong as the Craftsman gas trimmer models.
Craftsman Battery Weed Eater with 24V Li-Ion Battery
This Craftsman electric weed eater is a weaker model than the one above because it comes with a smaller battery so I would recommend it for people with small to medium yards. The trimmer comes with a 12“ cutting line, which is OK for a yard which doesn’t look like a jungle. The battery can be recharged in about an hour and a half which is pretty quick so you can easily continue your work once it is recharged. The Craftsman weed eater head has 7-positions so you can use it as the Craftsman edger and trimmer, whichever you have to do in your yard. It is not the strongest trimmer on the planet but it will get the job done. It is very lightweight and the straight shaft makes it easy to control so I would recommend it for beginners and people who aren’t too experienced in the whole garden trimming job. There is one thing you should know; this trimmer comes with a tool, without a battery or charger so make sure that you are aware of that before you order a product.
Pros:
Craftsman battery powered weed eater is light and easy to use.
It is both a trimmer and an edger.
Cons:
It is not as strong as the Craftsman gas trimmer models.
Craftsman Grass Trimmer With 4.2 Amp Engine
This is the only Craftsman electric weed eater with a cord at the moment on the market so I would recommend it for small to medium yards because the range of the cord and the extension cord can be a problem. Besides that, it is a good quality model that will provide you with interesting features like the multi-position pivoting head. You can adjust it so you can work in different positions, even as an edger. The straight shaft on the trimmer is adjustable so you can make it even more user-friendly than before. It is not the strongest Craftsman weed trimmer on the market, but it will get the job done if you use it to maintain your yard. The trimmer is very comfortable to use and easy to control, like other Craftsman electric weedwacker models so it is a good choice for beginners.
Pros:
The Craftsman grass trimmer is very light and easy to use.
The Craftsman weed trimmer is both a trimmer and an edger because it has an adjustable head.
Cons:
The Craftsman electric trimmer comes with the range of the cable so you can’t walk around with it.
