Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt 24-volt 12-in Telescopic Shaft Battery String Trimmer Edger Conversion Capable 3 Ah (Battery Included) (Charger Included)

Great feature

Lovely kobalt string trimmer

Started smoking

Good weed eater but it did start smoking and now won’t work. Refund in progress but good value for what you pay for. Been using kobalt for many years so not really hung up on the situation. Apparently there’s a recall on kobalt yard electric tools so buyer beware and be ready.

Lightweight but strong.

Great combo trimmer/edger. Versatile yet compact, great for any job.

No Bumper Head

I have never seen a weed /grass trimmer WITHOUT a string feed bumper head so I didn’t notice until after assembling . According to directions : Remove battery (safety precaution) , turn trimmer upside down. Push button and manually pull the two lines of string to lengthen. I have a lot of retaining wall so this isn’t happening.

Fantastic trimmer for homeowner use

Excellent cutting even with .065 line. Good battery life. Light weight, adjustable handle & head for user comfort. Auto line advance. Rotating edger w/whéels. Tackles big stuff, just go slow. Cons: Shaft tends to rotate while in use. Spool cap hard to rememove for line replacement. I do recommend

Figure out assembly with minimal help

being cordless

Great dual tool

Easy to use

Exceptional Product and Price

My Kobalt 12-in Telescopic Shaft Battery String Trimmer Edger works better than my electric trimmer that it replaced. I love that the trimming head pivots with its wheels to make edging a breeze.

battery life is good

Light weight, adjustments allow it to be balanced for different users. A button on the handle to advance the line would be great.

Great price for tool with batteries, charger

Good price and features. Have had a Kobalt leaf blower for 3 years and very satisfied. Assembly instructions a little unclear, but once deciphered fairly easy.

worked once

Used one time before it wouldn't work. Pulled trigger and nothing. Not worth buying to have to get all the pieces back together just to to return it. Disappointing because it would be a great multiuse device to have.

Adjustable

Like that I can adjust the length of the handle. I am short.

Good product

Easy to handle, easy to store and adjustable

Problem installing line

I have a small lawn and this edger was going to be perfect for my use. The first problem is the line broke during the first time I use it. Next problem was trying to open the line cover. Had to ask my neighbor to open it and he had to pull hard to get it open. By the way I am a female user. I have used edgers before and had no problem. I feel like I wasted my money. I don't think that I can return it, because I have used it I would it I could. Now I have to repurchase one I can use. So disappoin...

The edging is a nice feature

It is a little underpowered but it does get the job done

Works well enough for an inexpensive model

No complaints. Nothing fancy. Occasionally would not stay at the angle I had it but otherwise it is fine for a small yard.

A Nice, Powerful, Comfortable, Versatile Trimmer

This is my fifth string trimmer and my second battery powered model, and I’m finding it light, powerful, and versatile. So far, the battery has easily lasted through each afternoon’s lawn touch up session. The trimmer works well for level trimming along fence lines, and the small wheels let it convert into a vertical edger — a very nice feature. It also offers multiple adjustments that genuinely make the work easier. You can extend or shorten the main shaft, which is surprisingly helpful for com...
