Good product, good value July 4, 2008
I've had this for almost a month now and have used it three or four times. We have an acre lot about one-half heavily wooded, so about half an acre of grass. The battery powered trimmer is light and easy to use and quite powerful. It comes with two batteries and I'm still working off the original charge of one battery and it is showing no deterioration in power. I recommend it for anyone except those having a very large area to trim.

Cordless weed whacker June 30, 2008
I really like the trimmer, and I got it because of the size and the two batteries. I still must have too much to trim, because one battery is not enough, and I have to wait until the next day for the other battery to be fully charged. I will just have to buy another charger, or another product with batteries and charger included.

Tempted By Other Brands, But Chose B&D June 30, 2008
While there are similar offerings on infomercials from other brands, I decided to go with a name I trust. I have not been disappointed. This lightweight trimmer/edger does a great job for my townhome yard. The battery lasts just long enough to complete the trimming and edging. It comes with a second battery and charger, which was a pleasant surprise! The batteries also work in the blower (NS118). The edging capability is my favorite feature. I can now edge perfectly straight, beautiful lines! The edging guard makes it all possible.

Cordless Trimmer/Edger June 30, 2008
I like this trimmer. It is easy to use and fairly light weight. It comes with two rechargeable batteries which I find to be a plus. I like the way you change it to the edger. this trimmer replaces one that was so confusing that I never knew if I got it correct or not. I don't have that trouble with this one. It also has a gauge so you can follow the edge you are doing with ease. Make sure you have your batteries charged and you won't have any trouble with this trimmer.

great tool for *some* trimming jobs June 29, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I got this unit last year so that my teenager would quit complaining about unraveling the extension cords for our corded trimmer. I really like the ease of use of the unit, and there are some parts of the yard where this is perfect -- especially vertical surfaces like the fences and foundation of the house where you just need to trim the last inch or two of grass blades that the mower does not reach.

On the other hand, I have found this wholly inadequate for edging (even though it has a rotating head to enable this). It might be fine for edging if you have really wimpy narrow-leaf grass, but the runners from Saint Augustine are much too tough for this trimmer to handle. After only a few minutes of edging Saint Augustine, the battery drains to the point where it just won't chop through the stems any more.

I am glad to have this trimmer in my lawn maintenance arsenal - it makes it much easier to trim the fence line, the edges of the raised flowerbeds, and the foundation of the house -- but I still have to pull out my corded edger and corded string trimmer every couple of weeks to vanquish the tougher vegetation.
