 Love it! May 10, 2008
I really like this unit. I use one battery for my front yard and one battery for the back. Works great. My only gripe is that it didn't come with the faster charger to start with. Black & Decker FSMVC 9.6-Volt to 18-Volt 90 Minute Slide Style Battery ChargerThe charger it comes with is slow, but B&D sells one that charges in a couple hours.
I have had corded trimmers in the past but I hated messing with the cord. I have also had gas trimmers but I hated having gas sitting around all the time. I also hated having to pull and pull on my gas trimmer and the stink of exhust fumes from the gas trimmer.
This unit is a lot quieter than a gas trimmer too. The batteries switch out with other tools so I am sure I will be buying more B&D products in the future.
I also bought the Remington Cordess Mower Remington PowerMower 17-Inch 60-Volt Cordless/Corded Electric Combination Lawn Mower #MPS6017A. Now I don't have any gas cans in my shed anymore and my yard is totally ELECTRIC!
Great String Trimmer May 9, 2008

I'm a 62-year old widow that has a lot of grass to cut and trim. After nearly breaking my nose last year when my hand slipped from the pull rope on a gas trimmer I decided I needed something to make my job easier (and safer). This was just the thing! Nice and simple to use, much quieter, battery life is good plus there is always a spare, it's lightweight and easy to carry around, and no GAS and NO ROPE TO PULL!

I have used this trimmer and it is great for houses. It cuts good enough in tall thick grass to do the job. It is lightweight and feeds line by itself. Two great things in my mind. I have used gas and the cheaper corded versions. This trimmer beats them both overall. The cost through Amazon was great. Thanks
 Disappointment in the Unit May 5, 2008

I must admit, I do not like to give negative reviews but I feel I need to let you all know about this unit. I just returned my second one back to Amazon and sticking to the wired unit. This unit looks great at first and is light and charges fast. However, when it comes to actually doing work it falls way short. The major problems since to be in design to drivetrain. Both units were put through their paces by cutting some overground grass and both units ended up gettig stripped.
After I return the units, I used my electric trimmer and within seconds all the grass was gone.
So all, buyer beware on this one.

THIS TRIMMER/EDGER HAS SOME NICE FEATURES, AN EXTRA BATTERY AND AN AUTOMATIC STRING FEEDER. IT CAN GET A LITTLE HEAVY AFTER PROLONGED USE.
