My B&D LSTE525 Strng Trimmer

Would Recommend

The Black&Decker LSTE525 String Trimmer is well made, extremely easy to use, performs well, the .065" line is heavy enough to complete trim my whole yard around the beds and along the bottom of the chain link fence. Having the second battery available to use is a major plus in not having to wait to recharge a single battery. Pop out the 1st. battery install the 2nd. battery and place the 1st. battery back in the charger to be ready to use if needed or to have it ready to use next time. The 2 spe...

Best light weight trimmer

Have owned this trimmer for eight years. It is the best light weight thimmer I have ever used. Makes edging the curb a breeze. When it finally needs to be replaced, I will purchase this one again.

Best trimmer I’ve ever owned!

Would Recommend

I absolutely love the Black & Decker cordless trimmer/edger! I love that it is not heavy and I have no problem getting my yard and garden done without having to put it down because my arm hurts from holding it! I love that it cuts down weeds with ease and works amazingly! I also love that the batteries go a long time and I don’t have to worry about not being able to finish the job! When I switch from trimmer to edger it is so super simple and I love that and the easy feed of the string makes it ...

LSTE 525 is Awesome!!!

Would Recommend

I have owned several of these LSTE 525 trimmers and love them. They do a great job trimming my yard, and are lightweight and easy to use. The ability to flip them upside down easily makes all the difference doing the straight edge on my sidewalks. I would heartily recommend the battery powered LSTE 525!!

Need better charging system(s)

The battery charger failed and I have not been able to find a replacement - makes a good dust collector.

Have been using this product along with other 20V Max Yard Products, Blower, Hedge Trimmer. Keeping a bank of charged batteries at the ready. No worries about running out of fuel, or noise pollution. Very satisfied.

Quality product and Price

Would Recommend

20v max weed eater I purchased and used for the past couple of years has been very useful. It is lightweight and cuts very well. I have a large yard so my only suggestion is to have several batteries on hand as they last about 30 minutes each.

20 v max easy feed

Great product. Love mine. It’s not to heavy for me. It’s easy to load the string.

Eats the line way too fast.

This trimmer compared to my previous B&D trimmer eats line at an alarming rate starting with the reel that came with the trimmer. I was not expecting this based upon my previous experience. Fortunately I can wind my own reels with line that makes it a lot less expensive. It would be great if you had a means of switching over to the blade style of edging.

Reviewing the BD 20 volt Easyfeed

I have the predecessor of this model and I love it. I am sure this easy feed model can keep one working on clearing the yard, around the house, the back hill. When my present BD weed eater moves on, this is what I want.

This is so easy to use and works great. It is lightweight so easy for anyone to use. I told my neighbor about it and he is going to get one too. This would make a great holiday gift for family, friend or neighbor.

Great little trimmer and easy to use

Would Recommend

I have owned this LSTE525 trimmer for about 2 years, the auto feed I love, and the light weight is great. The auto feed stopped working, I replaced the auto feed lever with Black and Decker replacement part, it is sold individually, very common replacement part and it was very easy to replace. I own other trimmer (corded) that also use of the AF-100 line, I like that both uses the same spools.

Average Outdoor Tool

Basic functioning tool.A bit costly for what it does. Nylon spools seem to get used up too quickly.
