Default Eskimo Stingray Augers.

Does anyone have an Eskimo Stringray ice auger, 33cc, and what do you think of them. Thinking of getting one. Thanks for the replies.

Ive had mine for 10yrs. Recently replaced the cord and gas cap. No other issuses. I bought it originally because it was lightest and cheapest at the time. New ones have better transmission, better trigger, and foam grips. Wholesale is cheapest in edm i think.

Only negative on this auger is it does not have a ripper blade.

I like mine. Had it 4 years. Started it up last week with year old gas and it fired right up on the third pull. I pulled the recoil out once but bought two extras, they sent me one for free and the other was 10$ or so.

Had mine for 2 seasons now, into the 3rd season. started on first pull with year old gas. Runs great, and light enough to be portable almost everywhere. I found the throttle to be a bit fragile, as a fishing partner broked it. It's now fixed and I've had no real issue with the auger itself.

Don't think about racing it, but it will get you fishing without sore arms from drilling.

Drilled 1000's of holes with mine. Not one complaint.
