Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt 24-volt 14-in Straight Shaft Battery String Trimmer
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
The product is a lightweight and powerful tool that is easy to use and assemble. The battery has a surprisingly long runtime, and the dual-line cutting feature is appreciated. However, some customers have encountered issues with the inability to find replacement parts, the line not advancing properly, and the battery life being insufficient for larger yards. The product may work well for light-duty trimming but may not be suitable for more demanding tasks or long-term use without readily available replacement parts.

Would Not RecommendThis trimmer worked great ..and I liked it....until it needed new string. It was the most frustrating task and if knew....I would have never purchased it! I do not recommend.
Cobalt trimmer
Would Not RecommendEnjoyed it out of the box... then I had to replace the line. Went online for instructions. Instructions were easy, replacing didn't work the way the video said. Went back to Lowes with it for help. Staff member couldn't figure it out either. Even with online instructions. Will not buy this product again.

Works good. Auto feed does well. No adjustable pole length only setback, I’m 5’6”. Otherwise no problem of use.

First use impression
Would RecommendSo, I bought this at the end of the year last year and didn't use it until last week. The Battery was still charged. I was amazed at how light it was, how quiet it was and how well it worked to trim my weeds - compared to my old gas one that died. I have two Kobalt battery chain saws that I love so I expect this to be a good purchase, as well.

Exactly what I needed at the right price
Would RecommendVery light, maneuverable, effective trimmer. Easy to assemble, maybe 10 minutes out of the box. I live in an HOA community where grounds are up kept by a professional landscaping company, but they leave grass untouched near/around gutters, AC unit, garden hose stands, etc. This tool is exactly what I needed. Battery was sufficiently charged when I opened the box.
