I live in a spot in the country carved out of brush and very determined, successful weeds. My weeds aren’t the kind that pop up in the putting green-style suburban lawns. Mine are angry, tough, and used to doing whatever the heck they want. They are the Viking invaders of weeds. They will grab your foot while you’re looking at them and try to wrap you up and drag you into the brush.
So I have no choice but to go to battle with them lest the cover, grab, and move my house into the woods.
I had my doubts about this weed eater. Since it’s battery powered and lightweight, I wondered if it was a glorified toy.
Rest assured it is not. It’s a deceptive beast.
I’ve had my share of weed eaters in the never ending endeavor. Name brand, gas powered, weighed about like a cooler full of beer, deafening, taller than me, and inevitably surrender to the weeds.
So, I did my due diligence on yet another weed eater, aka money pit, and this one seemed to be the best buzz for the buck.
Boy, was I right!
First, it’s lightweight! I can easily use it for an hour without breaking my back. The adjustable shaft length and handle position enabled me to fit it to my height and stubby arms.
It also self-feeds the string. Excellent innovation. Not once has it clogged or tangled and I didn’t have to continually smack its head on the ground to get it to play nice.
It chews through weeds like they are cotton candy. Clean cuts, really fast.
Finally, the battery rocks. I’ve run it for an hour and it hasn’t quit on me yet. Recharges in about 15 minutes. And is a breeze to snap on and off.
Also, it’s a Black & Decker and the battery fits my B&D leaf blower! On a side note, I have the large B&D humane critter trap and it’s the best. Doesn’t even need a battery.
I am so pleased, I was looking for new weeds to buzz just to watch them die.
Highly recommend!
I will say this battery holds up longer and keeps more of its power... instead of a slower speed in the last 5 or 7 minutes.. leaving gapped blades of grass instead of clean cuts the higher speed yields.
This one seems lighter also.
One con is I liked the metal clip that could be folded out or aligned next to the motor... to get closer or out setting like a bump stop when edging.. this one doesn't move .. unless when part of one slips back about half an inch... so now it is of no use really.. as it is not well made or as secure as the last one... in both of it's locations. ( once it was set it stayed in place) the latest one... not so much.
Easy to assemble
Does the job
Comes with line
Comes with a battery (though only 2Ah)
Cons:
The included battery is useless as the runtime is too short (got a 5Ah)
Hate the safety button that you have to press before pulling the trigger (old one didn't have that) as it often pinches my skin but moreover is totally unnecessary and a hassle! I will disable this permanently!
The handles used to have a knob you tightened down to hold them in place, while this model has a different weaker mechanism that allows the handle to change positions on me when using it.
The old model allowed you to pull on the business end and twist it around to switch to edger mode - this newer model requires you to unscrew a knurled lock on the shaft, turn the shaft around, then tighten it back up into the locked position -- not nearly as quick and convenient as the old way, which only took a second!
It's a weed wacker, so not the end of the world, but B&D has devolved the design and ease of use imho and I like the old one much better (but the motor burned up after over a decade of use). I will keep this one and use it, but it's not a tool I will appreciate using, but more tolerate using.

I was nervous to buy lawn equipment online and to use it the first time. After spending more time research than waiting for the delivery, I finally got it three days ago on amazon prime. Today I was brave enough to open the box and pleasantly found that it is not only super light but also well-built and needs no tools for assembling it. ok, you only need a screwdriver to take the only screw out and put it back when connecting to the main part of the equipment. after charging the battery for about 4-5 hours. I went out to test it. Wow, I am so excited by how easy and effortless this trimmer operates. After spending a good half an hour cleaning up front and backyards weeds, and flower beds, the battery is still working fine. I’m very happy and pleased with the first lawn equipment I own and use it without tears or frustration. Ladies, be brave and try this one, you will like it. now you know why guys call their tools toys. I enjoy using it and the result is amazing too. who does not like a fresh-cut and weed-free lawn?
I picked mine up for $85 in June 2018, so my review reflects that price point. Seller shipped quickly, and all arrived as it ought to have. I'd recommend this for anyone who wants to ditch the cord, or the noise (and heft) of a gas powered trimmer.
