I got really sick of buying lawn and garden equipment at the big box stores. No one there knows much about the equipment they sell. If it breaks, you're on your own.\r
\r
I first went to Lake Erie Lawn and Garden a few years back when my Sears gas blower died. It lasted a whole year. The one before that lasted about three. I thought ""There has to be better quality equipment out there!"" LEL&G carries Stihl power equipment. A very nice and knowledgeable salesperson helped me pick out the right blower for my needs. It has run like a champ for 3 years now.\r
\r
Since then I've bought a Stihl chainsaw and pole saw from LEL&G. All of my Stihl power equipment has been a pleasure to own and use.\r
\r
I have also had my John Deere tractor serviced there.\r
\r
Their prices are very fair for service and they fixed my tractor right the first time.\r

My advice to you is to break your habit of shopping for yard equipment at the box stores. You will pay a few bucks more at Lake Erie L&G, but the equipment you'll get is MUCH better quality, and the person selling you the item actually knows what they're talking about. If you do need a repair, they know what they're doing and they'll take care of you.
Pros: Great quality equipment for sale, knowledgeable sales people.
Cons: Will cost a bit more than the ""big box"" stores.
