Forum » General Discussions » Reed Trimmers by Jango (13 posts) 19 years ago Reed Trimmers Does anyone know about Rigotti reed trimmers? They come with and without a "regulator." What does the regulator do? Are they as well made and long lasting as the Cordier trimmers? Thanks, Jango Reply To Post [Report Abuse] Report Abuse Web Address * Your Name Your Email Address Comment

I believe that they are supposed to be of better quality than the Rigotti. Hope that helps!
