Summary: something's missing 2008-10-09
Comment: i owned a 4+ yr old version of this very same product and used it every spring and fall until it finally gave out. Bought a new one last month, used it once on the same application and it broke before I even finished trimming. Manual says it cuts up to 3/4". It was binding up on <1/2" twigs and that led to the gear stripping out. They clearly "cheapened" this product compared to the one they made several years ago. Will be requesting refund from manufacturer.

Summary: NEW IMPROVED MODEL COMING 2008-07-07
Comment: I purchased the Remington Model AT3017B pole trimmer over 1 year ago and didn't have any problems until recently, when I experienced the "cam disengaging from the cutter blade assembly" problem.I called a NEW DESA Customer Service number (1-800-626-2237) and mentioned my problem. Expecting some long line of "Red Tape" to get the trimmer repaired, I was told I would get a new, vastly improved model in a few days. The Rep didn't even want my sales receipt,or return of my trimmer! For those with all the problems cited in the reviews - call and get your replacement.

Summary: Hedge Trimmer not up to the job 2007-09-18
Comment: I had several negative issues with this hedge trimmer(I returned it) The motor at the end of the shaft made it heavy, unwieldy and tiring to work with. The stated capability to cut 3/4 inch branches was a serious overstatement and it cut only when you could approach the material from a 90' angle. Any other approach would shred the twigs and bind up the blades.
A redesign and better materials would be necessary before I would try this tool again.

Summary: Good product 2007-06-26
Comment: Remington Pole Hedge Trimmer works very well. The pole extends your reach so that I no longer need a ladder when trimming large bushes.

Summary: Cam failure 2007-05-14
Comment: I had the same problem. This is due to a design deficiency.
I bought a very similar trimmer two years ago, that never have this problem, but the motor finally gave up after two years of pretty heavy use. Satisfied with the use I got out of that one, I decided to buy another one to replace it.
Very disappointed that the cam locked up, only about 5 minutes into use. When I compared the new unit side by side with my old unit, the cause was obvious. Previous designs used a backing plate for the cam to keep it in the slot. The new design only used a small nut and washer to hold the cam in place, no backing plate. This allows the cam to slip and lock up. Bad engineering design.
Since it's a design deficiency, I'm going to follow up with the manufacturer and try to get the problem fixed. If you are effected, please keep checking back here, and I'll let you know what I find out.
***UPDATE***
Remmington is aware of the problem, and is shipping me a replacement unit, that has been redesigned, at no cost. They wanted a reciept, but a bank statement is sufficent. Contact them directly at 800-626-2237.
