Ratings & Reviews for Toro 12-volt max 8-in Straight Shaft Battery String Trimmer 3 Ah (Charger Included)

8 " Cordless Trimmer

I wished I could have purchased the same one I had for years which was a 7" Toro Cordless Trimmer. This new model is not of the same quality. When you need to feed it, the line is already inside the unit and has to be taken apart and fed out. I never had this problem with my other one. I have not had charging issues yet or the guard falling off like others. I have already purchased 0.065 Shaped trimmer line to replace this line that came with it. It does not cut well at all.

Meets all my needs!

My Toro has all the important features that I need. It is lightweight, easy to charge, easy to change the spool, and I can depend on it to take care of all my gardening issues.

Great light trimmer

I needed a light trimmer and this one is also battery powered. My last trimmer was corded and dragging an extension cord was tiring and cumbersome. On the first trim the battery did not last for the entire yard but after recharging, it finished up well. I was so impressed that I bought a second trimmer exactly like the first one. I keep them both fully charged and plugged in at all times. I have trimmed the yard several times and have not had to use the second trimmer as the first trimmer batter...

Toro continues to perform well.

Having been pleased with Toro equipment in the past, I did not hesitate to purchase the trimmer. So far, so good, despite me being elderly!

Easy to use

Works well, but i get a cramp holding two buttons down to maintain power. Like the ease of releasing more string without wasting extra string

Trimmer

I bought this trimmer the end of May. First time I used it I could do all the trimming I planned on with one charge. Since then I can't even get half the trimming done before it slows down so much I have to go put it on the charger very disappointed.

This is a nice little machine!

I bought this so I could do the trimming because my husband was always cutting something he shouldn't and I could not manage our large gas-powered trimmer. It's nice and light and easy to handle around every kind of edge and in between bricks in a walkway. I can do everything I need to do in our 2-acre yard with one charge-up. I've used it 6 times and I'm still on the string cartridge that came with it but the cartridge looks very easy to change. Its easy to store on the shelf I use that's near ...

Great buy

I have a large backyard and do a lot of trimming, this is lightweight, cheap and the charge lasts. Worth it!

Great cordless trimmer

I have used it a few times on my front and back lawn. It was so easy to put together, and I am not that handy. The charge lasts for my front and back lawn and them when I charge it, it only takes a few hours to charge for the next use. It is quite peppy for only 12 volts and does a great job. I have not had to put in a new feeding line yet, hope that is not difficult to do. So far, I really like it a lot and it works well.
