 Totally Satisfied September 7, 2010
SkookinFL (Yulee, FL)
I use this trimmer on a 10000 sq.ft. yard and it works great. Usually need two fully charged batteries and I'm done. It took almost the whole summer for the original spool of .065 line to finally run out. Never had a single hang up or tangle. The auto feed is amazing compared to other string trimmers. An important point to remember about batteries like these; store them in fairly cool rooms and recharge two of them the night before you use them. Took 3 cents worth of electricity over 20 hours trickle charge. In the service I stored batteries for electronic equipment in a little refrigerator to extend their life. Keep them charged regularly over the winter also and they'll last many years.
Light weight but does the job super well September 3, 2010

I love my new trimmer - the battery goes and goes and does a superlative job. I have a torn rotator cuff and can't lift heavy products. I just love this, not to heavy and does a really good job of trimming. Excellent item, no bumping for the cord to come out. Buy one, you won't be sorry.

Works great for a battery operated tool. It has more power than I expected it to have. I also was VERY PLEASED that it came with 2 batteries!
I'd buy this item again in a heartbeat and have already recommended it to others.

Who could ask for anything more? Great battery life, powerful cutting power - with 2 batteries, to boot! This trimmer does a fine job. And the batteries can be used in other Black & Decker 18 volt cordless devices.
Surprised...and Pleased August 30, 2010

I have owned a number of different gas powered trimmers and they all were more powerful than this B&D electric trimmer, so as many other reviewers have stated, if you are doing a big area, or using a trimmer a lot, perhaps this is not the right choice for you.
I was on the fence about it myself, but when my last gas unit konked out, decided to give it a shot and I'm happy I did. My property is about 1 acre and there is a good bit of trim work to do, but I've had no trouble finishing the job, usually on one battery. A couple of times, when cutting through heavier growth, I did have to switch batteries and it's nice to have the other ready to go just in case.
Other reviewers thought the batteries didn't last very long...maybe 15 minutes of running time. I was very careful to follow the instructions when charging them initially and have found I regularly get more than 20 minutes per battery pack. This unit uses a single filament cutting line which does a decent job if you take your time, but it only does a relatively narrow swath, so trimming tends to take a little longer.
Not playing with gas and oil or the stink of 2 cycle exhaust or fussy hard to start gas trimmers is a pleasure. Now I just pick up the Grass Hog when I need to trim something and squeeze the trigger...works every time with no fuss. The batteries are a little heavy and unit seems a bit heavy/unwieldy to me so it's just as well the battery life limits how long you can use it. There's no support strap to take weight off your arms/shoulders.
Overall, I'm very happy so far with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a cordless electric trimmer.
