What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this electric trimmer for powerful performance, quiet operation, and impressive battery life that handles full yards on a single charge. Most appreciate the switch from gas, citing ease of use, lightweight design, intuitive controls, and maintenance-free operation without exhaust fumes or noise. The shoulder strap effectively reduces fatigue during extended use. However, some customers report frustration with the bump feed mechanism, describing it as unreliable and prone to tangling, requiring frequent manual rethreading. A few mention difficulty finding replacement heads. Despite these issues, most reviewers consider the overall performance and convenience worthwhile.

not easy to refill the spool
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using this trimmer for one year. While it cuts fine, I find that replenishing the spool is not easy. The spool takes considerable effort to rewind

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this to replace an old gas powered Shindaiwa trimmer. This was lighter and it worked great. The only issue is the I won’t be able to use the many steel attachments I had bought through the years for the gas powered trimmer.
