Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt 24-volt 14-in Straight Shaft Battery String Trimmer
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
The product is a lightweight and powerful tool that is easy to use and assemble. The battery has a surprisingly long runtime, and the dual-line cutting feature is appreciated. However, some customers have encountered issues with the inability to find replacement parts, the line not advancing properly, and the battery life being insufficient for larger yards. The product may work well for light-duty trimming but may not be suitable for more demanding tasks or long-term use without readily available replacement parts.

My first Kobalt
Would RecommendIt’s my first yard work battery operated power tool, and it’s changed my mind about battery vs corded.

First use impression
Would RecommendSo, I bought this at the end of the year last year and didn't use it until last week. The Battery was still charged. I was amazed at how light it was, how quiet it was and how well it worked to trim my weeds - compared to my old gas one that died. I have two Kobalt battery chain saws that I love so I expect this to be a good purchase, as well.

Exactly what I needed at the right price
Would RecommendVery light, maneuverable, effective trimmer. Easy to assemble, maybe 10 minutes out of the box. I live in an HOA community where grounds are up kept by a professional landscaping company, but they leave grass untouched near/around gutters, AC unit, garden hose stands, etc. This tool is exactly what I needed. Battery was sufficiently charged when I opened the box.

Poor Battery life is the MAIN ISSUE
Would Not RecommendWhen this Kobalt 24 vdc string trimmer is fully charged, it works pretty darn well, BUT for only about 10 to 15 minutes of use. Then it takes over 2 hours to fully charge the battery again. Sure, I can purchase a few more batteries but at $70 each, two would cost me more than the trimmer package which came with one battery. 2 hour charge time for 15 minutes of use is not a good ROI. Will be returning for an electric trimmer with a cord.
