The Craftsman 358.35161 is a reliable and powerful gas-powered string trimmer designed for homeowners and landscaping enthusiasts alike. Known for its robust performance, this trimmer offers a blend of innovation, comfort, and efficiency.

One of the standout features of the Craftsman 358.35161 is its 25cc 2-cycle engine.

The trimmer is equipped with a dual line, bump-feed cutting system, which makes it easy to advance the line without stopping the engine. This system also allows for quick line replacement, enabling users to get back to work with minimal downtime. The 0.095-inch line thickness ensures effective cutting power while also being durable enough to withstand regular use.

A notable technological feature of the Craftsman 358.35161 is its Easy Start System, designed to simplify the starting process. This system reduces the amount of effort needed to start the engine, allowing for a smoother, quicker ignition every time.
