BLACK+DECKER 20V String Trimmer and Edger, 12-Inch, 1.5Ah, Two Batteries Included

It doesn't have alot of power

my previous blk and decker lasted 8 yrs, still running but needed new batteries, gave it away and bought new one, this one little nicer with 2 speeds and auto feed, works great and reasonable price. light weight and easy to handle

I am 87yo and just had my first use of this product at my 2nd home in the Poconos. I am 5'8", 155 lbs. The ground is rocky and not flat with "natural" grass. Cut the grass around the drainage ditch in front. Of course the first use took a while to get comfortable, but it did what I needed. My only wish is that the LOCK button was bigger since I was wearing heavy leather gloves and a larger button would have made its use easier. Also, I have lost a lot of muscle mass in the past 3 years, especially in my arms which has not helped A niece also has this product.and she likes it a lot. This model replaces a 30yo B&D that used a 100 ft. long electric cord and gave out while cutting lots of very tall grass that should have been cut much sooner..

The two batteries sent with weedeater were "cold" batteries. The box had been opened and then resealed.

This trimmer works well at both speeds for trimming grass. However the battery life is horrible. I barely get 15 minutes per battery; it came with two. Recharging takes several hours so I cannot reuse them the same day. I have tried to find a longer lasting battery for this unit but have not been able to do so. For this reason, I am disappointed in this purchase.
