This is a worth while product for the homeowner who cuts on the weekend or a few times a year. I have a bench mounted sharpener that is now collecting cobwebs. This sharpener is well made and about 1/2 the price of the identical branded one.
About 5 minutes to sharpen a blade. This saves time over bench sharpeners. It knocks down the rakers as you file, another time saver. It does a better job sharpening than my bench mount.
Come in a zipped pouch to store away in the summer. Perfect fit for outside air conditioning unit but be prepared to chase it down the street when the gusty winds blow though.
Great cover. Fits like a glove. Also has a drawn string to help it fit tight.
The cinched cord on the bottom is thin and hard to pull in tight enough. The string to tighten is cheap and loosens up slowly as the weather continues. The sealing quality of drawstring is very low, and even does not work.
