Hello:
Was thinking of getting a gift for a friend of a Homelite gas string trimmer.
Home Depot seems to sell them in the price range I'm in ($ 100 or so)
I have a 5 year old one, and it's worked pretty well.
But, i've heard that Homelite is (essentially) no longer in business, or viable, and that parts and repair are no longer available.
How true is this, and how concerned should I be about buying one ?
Thanks, Bob
