BLACK+DECKER GSN35 2-N-1 Cordless Garden Shears

Works quite--very satisfied with--

Excellent light weight easy to manoeuvre garden shears. Perfect for topiary trimming long lasting battery. Extremely happy with purchase.

Several ppl complained that they had to keep pushing the safety button to operate. That's the purpose of it - safety! I bought this for m in law so she can do spot trimming around the yard and heavy trimming I do with my Troy-Bilt hedge attachment. For perpetual light trimming around the yard, not serious annual trimming, this unit fits the bill. I saw it in the store and jumped on it because it filled a need for someone older that can no longer keep using larger trimmers or heavy manual cutters.

Love it! So easy to charge and then just take outside to use! No cords to drag around.

The tool arrived in a reasonable time. I unpacked it and put it on the battery charger included with the tool. Charged for 16 hours (over night + some early daylight)). Attached the shorter of the two attachments (Grass and weed trimmer) Used the tool for an overall 3 hours with no decrease of the speed or power. Changed to the Hedger cutter and did a lot of bush trimming. Had no problem after 2 more hours using the tool. It sounded and acted as good and powerful as it did when I first started working with it. When I finished for the day, I hooked up the charger again and put a top charge of 4 hours on the battery. I did notice, while reading reviews from others, there were several complaints about how hard it was to hold the safety button in while using the tool. HELLO...The only reason you need to push the safety button is TO TURN THE TOOL ON. The safety button does not need to be held in after the motor has started. Of course, if the trigger is released, the safety button will need to be pushed in to START the tool again
