I had a lawnmower that was a total POS and it threw a rod. It wasn’t a Craftsman. Craftsman is the shit, btw. If your lawn mower threw a rod blame briggs and strattor or kohler, not Craftsman. I got another completely different pressure washer from H.D. It’s a Husky (not husqvarna). THis one is also JUNK! WHat the FUCK! It works, then the motor binds up and blows fuses in the house. Tried it on 2 different outlets on different circuits and same result, motor binds and the fuse blows. Fuck these things. I’m either getting a gas one or I am getting nothing at all. Electric FTL. ---

Even when I have it off it hums randomly on and off and then the fuse blows. ---

Electric FTL. Well when I took the mower to get fixed for something else a week before it blew up the service guy said that while it was a Tecumseh engine Sears specs it for them and has them make the cheapest engine possible. Pretty much any power shit that HD sells is junk too. My brother has bought a bunch of stuff there and its fucked up junk most of the time. He’s convinced they sell factory seconds. ---

I believe it, the box was practically half opened already… I wouldn’t trust some Sears service guy as far as you can throw them. haha ---

HD stuff is always open. Sears service lost my brothers bike a long time ago but found it when my mom told them they needed to give him a new bike. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fathers-day-gifts/244905.md?page=1)
