I own a WELRVB30, bought it June 2011...not happy with it.The friction wheel looks like its worn down,has no speed,I have to lean on the reverse for it to move.Is there any way the can make this model go faster..I had a craftsman 30 incher...LOVED IT!...Now I see theres a troybilt out there,with the same design as the craftsman..This friction wheel issue is gonna be a problem for many years,its a bad design...Does any one know if WEEDEATER has any intentions of fixing this problem?
