Pull the plug when that happens again and see if it is wet or dry and
check to see if there is spark.
Got to be either flooded, not getting fuel, or not getting spark.

On my 2-cycle things I squirt in a bunch of carb cleaner to loosen up the dried
gunk (which appears very rapidly) that clogs the jets. The carb cleaner will
usually fire it off but you might need a couple shots. Sometimes ether but
that is probably not good as there is no oil in there, but it will get it
started after 2-3 times.

So back to the say, it is a POS. I went out to start it, have not ran it in a
couple days. Wore myself pulling on the damn thing, it never started. I am
going to take it to their nearest service provider I guess and tell them either
to fix it or shove it up their ass.
Try pulling off the filter cover and squirting a little gas into the carb
intake.
That should at least tell you if it is starving for fuel.
I am guessing that is the most likely cause of hard starting.
Did you check to see if it has spark?
Maybe a new spark plug?
Small engines like this are pretty basic.
