Honda HHT35SLTAT
For a behemoth gas trimmer that’s definitely a step up from the standard 25cc trimmer, the Honda HHT35SLTAT demonstrates its incredible power from the moment it starts up. Although it’s on the heavy side, this model has a shoulder strap and is designed to not vibrate so much, so it’s not exhausting to use for long periods of time. One of the advertised perks of this model is the fact that it doesn’t make you mix gas and oil but takes regular gas, which certainly takes a lot of the hassle out of operating a gas trimmer. Another nice feature is the collection of blades and add-ons to increase the utility of this trimmer. If we have complaints, it’s that it takes more than one or two pulls to start up, and its fuel efficiency is not as great as 25cc models. Still, we can’t fault the design or the quality of this Honda trimmer.
