What Customers Are Saying

The trimmer is considered lightweight and easy to use, with positive comments about its maneuverability and automatic string advance feature. However, there are mixed opinions on its performance and durability. Some users found the battery life disappointing, lasting only 20-30 minutes before needing a long recharge. The automatic spool feed also caused issues for some, requiring manual line feeding. While suitable for light trimming tasks, others felt it lacked the power needed for heavier duty work. There were also reports of the trimmer breaking down after a short period of use.

Good tool

Would Recommend

Being 6 foot I just wish it was a little longer, otherwise it is a good tool.

Not enough power

Would Not Recommend

My weeds laughed at this poor thing and the battery died 30 minutes in. I was trying get the weeds from around the base of the house and they weren't budging. I miss my old Grasshog so much. That thing that it was a lawnmower! I'll be returning this Lil Engine that couldn't today!

No Battery Life

Would Not Recommend

Fully charged the battery overnight. It then worked for only 20 minutes. It's going right back. I will not buy B&D again.

Handy!

Would Recommend

It has good cutting ability, and is light and easy to manoeuvre. We have a steep slope garden and grass and it is much easier to use than our larger heavier and corded trimmer.

Trigger mechanism broke within a year

Would Not Recommend

If you buy this, you'd better make sure there's a B&D service center within driving distance. This product had a very cheap feeling from the beginning, but I wasn't giving it very hard work and it worked adequately for about a year. That's when the trigger mechanism broke. Now it can't be turned on at all, and while its technically within the warranty period, the cost of shipping it to a B&D service center is the same as the amount I paid for the trimmer in the first place.

Small but effective trimmer

Would Recommend

Purchased for lawn upkeep and trimming by concrete and fencing. It does a nice job, and the battery stays charged for about 2 hours of continuous heavy trimming use.

Best weedtrimmer

Would Recommend

This is replacement for the one I've had for past 6 years. Works great, string feeds great, and it's lightweight. Turns both ways to either edge sidewalk or trim grass against the house or fence edges. Uses batteries is a plus for me, no stinky gas to deal with. Have several B&D tools all use same battery size so can interchange for spare if needed. Great product!

Light weight and easy to use

Would Recommend

At 84 years young I started having balance problems which made my Black and Decker corded weed eater difficult for me to use. My wife used it, but complained about the cord and the weight. I bought this lithium battery powered weed eater and we both love it. The charge on the battery lasts plenty long for our needs and the weight is perfect for both of us.

Small Areas Only

Would Not Recommend

Bought this a few weeks ago and found a couple of shortcomings. Battery doesn’t maintain charge long enough to finish my small yard. Also string stays too short for thorough cutting much of the time.
