Had a side gig for a long time messing with all lawn equipment and weedeaters built these days as everything else arent made to last, Gave up on weedeater and push mower repair Recently because of the hassle and throw away lifestyle everyone is into ,them expecting ultra cheap labor, and people able to pick them up so cheap these days new from the big boxes not knowing what garbage they bought as well as neglecting them with today's gas on top of it almost make it a losing battle with the cheap stuff. As always you get what you pay for as you know however amd some are worth it, stihl, echo, real Husky, etc.

My neighbor gave me a very new Troy built 4 cycle eater with the "I'm lazy and require an electric start for my stupid weedeater option" that lasted one summer and never ran again. After tearing into it and realizing how awful it was made I realized again why I don't muck with them anymore. All I have to say is good luck Sam, let me know when you or your step son get so aggravated you end beating it on the ground. It might run for a while but beware, it won't next season. But I digress, I am hopeful it will be a good buy and last for you guys. It's only 20 bones so why not.
