What Customers Are Saying
Customers are sharply divided on this trimmer. Many praise its lightweight design, ease of assembly, and dual trimming-edging functionality, finding it comfortable and ideal for small yards. However, nearly as many report severe battery issues—lasting only 10 to 20 minutes with 3.75-hour recharge times—forcing multiple battery purchases. Mechanical failures plague the product, with reviewers citing broken line feed systems, jammed spools, and failures after minimal use. Some note lack of power against thick grass and front-heavy balance. Despite positives, battery performance and durability concerns significantly undermine satisfaction.

Purchased in March 2016. The only problem is the way the guard is made, it lost a tab so it works for awhile and then comes off. I need to buy a new guard. It works really well

stalls too easily, not powerful
I have a small yard, with a fenceline and a sidewalk. On paper, this tool seemed perfect for the job. In reality, it didn't have enough power to cut through the grass around the edge of my house and the fenceline. I had to move really slowly, or else it would stall, which seemed to drain the battery extremely quickly. When it stalls out, it doesn't just spin slower, it stops spinning entirely. So it felt like endless cycles of spin up, bog down, stall out. As an edger, it is worthless. It's ni...
This thing is not great
I have this weed-wacker for a little under a year. I bought it as part of a blower combo. The blower has been satisfactory. I also purchased a bush trimmer, as well, for an extra battery. Using 2 batteries I can get my 1/4 acre lot done (this includes trimming and blowing). The batteries do not last long. If you buy this you really need two, I wouldn’t try and go on just one. The weed-wacker itself has been nothing but trouble. The line never advances when it should. This makes edging a huge has...
Absolute Garbage
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! This trimmer does not auto-feed line and only allows for a single line out of the trimmer head. I love Craftsman products, but they should be ashamed of themselves for this. I lost track of the amount of times I had to stop and get more line out only to make it five feet before I needed to do it again. It would have been better for me to buy a pair of scissors and cut it by hand. This trimmer also fails to cut grass on the first pass which made it all the more frustratin...

Craftsman Weed Eater
I returned product due to battery not working. The sales clerk was aware that this was an issue with this product, she said she was surprised product had not been recalled, she explained many customers had returned product for the same issue. She hesitated to give me a refund without receipt...I understand. Thank Goodness I had used my rewards phone number at time of purchase which recorded the transaction and I was able to get a full refund.

JUNK
The battery is dead before I can get around my house. It was new but I did not use it until this spring and found that the battery was already over 4 years old and JUNK!

No power, Battery don't last long
I have lawn service and sprinklers gets missed and the grass suffers. I thought it would be a good idea to get a cordless weed eater. I always like Craftsman products and bought them for 35 + years. I always thought Craftsman was quality. Since I bought it just to weed eat around sprinklers at times I figured it would be great. It has no power to even trim around sprinklers and the battery did not last long enough to trim around the sprinklers and I have an average size lot, not like I have a lo...
Vibrates the heck outta my hands
And the string slaps against the guard and makes a god awlful noise. I borrowed a friends battery powered Stihl weed eater since my late husbands gas powered Stilh was too heavy for me . And I thought maybe this Craftsman would be kinda like her Stihl battery weed eater---NOT EVEN IN SAME UNIVERSE. This Craftsman weed eater vibrates my hands and arm about as bad as a gas powered weedeater does, Im a 41 year old in good shape woman and it shouldnt be that much of a hassle. And the string slaps ...
