What Customers Are Saying

The cordless trimmer offers good power and cutting ability for small to medium-sized yards. It is lightweight and easy to use, making it suitable for a variety of users. However, the battery life may be limited, especially for larger jobs, and the assembly and instructions can be challenging. While the trimming performance is generally strong, the edging capabilities are not as robust for some customers. Overall, it provides a solid cordless option with a balance of quality and affordability.

The one we didn't return

Would Recommend

Pros: Doesn't have a wheel that interferes with edging around angles and mulched beds. Edge guard isn't ridiculously long like on the 40 volt unit (which we bought initially and returned). Trims and edges ok, although a little slower than the B&D grass hog (which we loved, but it irreparably broke this year) it replaced. Battery lasted for the 15-20 minutes it takes to edge and still had a charge. Lightweight, easy to handle. Borrowed a couple neighbors' edgers before searching and knew what we ...

Another sad owner of LST 300 Trimmer

This is my second black and decker trimmer. The other lasted about 3 years - the cap broke in two. So time to buy a new one. The LST 300 is terrible. It is hard to manage and the line will not advance correctly. this looks like an issue B&D has had with many customers. I am very disappointed.

Consider spending more to get a better product

Would Not Recommend

This trimmer is somewhat underpowered. The battery runs down relatively soon while trimming and takes a very long time to recharge. I also does not work very well when in the edging mode. The trim line guard does not easily retract so edging does not work well.
