Needs improvement

Would Not Recommend

Two things would make this a much better product - lighter weight and the ability to better modulate the speed (seems to be fast and faster which limits control when required).

Big Fan

Huge fan, enables me to tae down minor brush and yard chores. The "easy" loading string is amazing. Makes what I hated about string trimers as a kid go away.

Strong trimmer but has some reliability issues

Would Not Recommend

Overall this has been a good trimmer and powers through most jobs. I do have a few issues 1) the spool doesn’t always work smoothly and will require taking part and reloading the trimmer line 2) after about a year the battery will no longer charge and requires replacement. Aside from those two issues is been pretty reliable.

Best trimmer ever. Blower is great to.

Would Recommend

This works great. use it on my 3/4-acre resident. bought a new one because my old one went out from so much use and out of warrantee period. I bought it five years back at my old house. I have a lot of trimming to do and go through two Batties or more each time. Also have the blower (very powerful) . Will keep buying this product.

Very good trimmer

Not as powerful as a high-end gas model but sufficient to my needs. No more concerns of fuel going bad over the winter or gas lines disintegrating due to E10 fuel. No long extension cords. The pluses way outweigh the negatives.

Solid string trimmer with a fatal flaw

Would Recommend

Overall, the string trimmer works well. Easy to use, easy to charge. I really appreciated the PowerLoad feature while it worked. Unfortunately, it broke after about 18 months of use. There's a part that has failed and cannot be replace without replacing the entire head. Poor design or fatal flaw?
