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.

Would Not RecommendDid not even use it. I picked it up late Saturday from a hardware store along with the leaf blower (combo package), charged a battery (it took about two hours), plugged it to the leaf blower, tried it once for a few seconds, and was pleased with the power for just blowing grass and leaves off the sidewalk. It was late, so I went to bed with the battery attached to the blower. The next morning the battery was completely dead. Took it back to the store and returned it. The man at the store sa...

Works for Smaller Jobs
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This string trimmer/edger works great around my home for the smaller jobs. It's awesome for trimming around sidewalks or the base of your house. The battery will last for about 30 minutes before needing a charge. This is ample enough time for me to complete my smaller front yard. I like that it is lighter weight and won't kill your back. I would recommend the purchase of an additional battery if you have a job that requires using for longer per...

It broke
Would Not RecommendIt broke. I liked it cause it’s light weight and perfect for clean work until one day the cap for the string broke off and I haven’t been able to use ever since. Is this covered under the warranty?

String does not advance
Would Not RecommendString does not advance properly its a constant fight to get it to advance
broke after 3 uses
Would Not RecommendNot very sturdy at all. Only used 3 times to edge the front yard and on the 3rd use, the cam lock the keeps the string from unwinding broke. Bought this as a package with a blower and at least the blower still works.

Dead On Arrival
Would Not RecommendI returned the trimmer because the charger was defective.
Save your $$
Would Not RecommendWould not recommend this product especially for women. It is heavy to use and the battery barely lasts long enough to trim my small yard. The battery is very difficult to remove to charge. Bought because of the good price and the edger. The edger doesn't work! All I can say about the price, you get what you pay for!
Very good trimmer
Would RecommendThe Craftsman V20 is of good quality and inexpensive. Purchased 3 months ago. I recomend it.
My issue with this trimmer is the little round orange piece of plastic that covers up the spool. It is very fragile, and mine only last for a few uses. I am not bumping the unit. I use it around my pool where I actually like the lighter weight and the fact that I don't have to pull an electric cord around, but this piece has been replaced about four times at almost $10 a pop. I have now paid more for a little ten-cent piece of plastic then I have for the entire unit. This piece of plastic needs ...
