Earthwise ST00015 15-Inch 6.25 amp Electric String Trimmer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Outstanding twin cord trimmer with lots of power, makes mulch of tall grass and weeds. It was purchased to replace a 18V battery operated trimmer that would not last very long on a charge, even with two batteries and a hi-power charger most of the time it petered out before finishing around our house which sits on a small 60 x 80 lot. The disadvantage of using an extention cord is quickly offset by the power and ease of use of this trimmer. I highlt recommend it, good quality at a low price.

Neuton Trimmer/Edger Attachment For CE 6 Lawn Mowers Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bummer that the previous reviewer had reliability issues with his Trimmer/Edger attachment. I bought mine with my Neuton 6.0 and it's worked fine, so seeing the other review, I felt I should mention how well it actually works.

And the answer is, very well. It's a powerful little trimmer, and the convenience of being able to just throw the switch on the handle of the mower to swap between mowing and trimming can't be beat. I use this to edge, and to hit tall grass/weeds near the dropoffs or fences where the mower "can't cut it."

The only downside is that it's not as easily maneuverable as a hand-held trimmer. Because it's mounted on one side of the mower, you may have to swing the mower around and reverse directions to be able to put the trimmer into the right spot. Not a big deal.

I have a nice gas trimmer as well, but it never gets used as this is so much more convenient, and no messing with gas/oil.

Toro 51467 8-Inch 12-Volt Cordless Electric Trimmer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Toro cordless trimmer has plenty of power--even after 45 minutes of use.I also own the Black & Decker 18 volt cordless trimmer with 2 removable batteries.The Black and Decker loses its power in less than 20 minutes--sometimes 15.

I store the Toro unplugged, and it holds its charge for over 6 weeks.Try that with the Black & Decker 18 volt cordless trimmer. The Black and Decker loses most of its power in less than 2 weeks.

The Toro doesn't always win over the Black & Decker, however.The B&D is superior for trimming grass along a sidewalk.It's also more ergonomic and weighs much less.I do, however, get tired of replacing the batteries every 15 minutes and having to recharge 2 batteries after every use.

Overall, the Toro is a great value for the money.It is a little heavy, but that's due to the large battery. If you have extremely light trimming to do, especially along a sidewalk, definitely get the Black & Decker 18 volt cordless trimmer.If you have lots of trimming to do and can deal with the extra weight, definitely get the Toro.It runs longer, stronger, and, depending on how long you use it, you don't have to recharge it after every use.

Black & Decker NST2018 Grass Hog 12-Inch 18-Volt Cordless Electric String Trimmer with 2 Batteries Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I think this is perfect for someone who really:
1) dislikes the noise and smell of the gas trimmers
2) wants something fairly light
3) does not want a cord to always worry about
4) already has firestorm or B&D 18 volt products (batteries are interchangeable)
I have used all 3 types of trimmers, gas, 120 wired, and this cordless one and I have to say the convenience is great. Instant on with a press of the switch is great. The plastic is a bit cheap feeling but it seems to do the work. I think it could've been much better constructed, but the battery life is pretty impressive and the speed/torque of the trimmer is also pretty impressive on a well grown/groomed lawn. It did have a bit of trouble instantly tackling a thick busy section of grass but after going over it 2-3 passes...it took care of it. This same spot has given me trouble even with the corded 120 volt version from Toro so this was expected. The gas one I had chewed through it easily but that's gas...
I think for light to moderate work, it's fine. If you have thorny and thick undergrowth or even small plants with a fibrous stem, it'll take more work to get down than a gas.
Oh..if you even TRY to 'bump and feed' this unit, you will find the spool falls off VERY easily with a solid thump to the bottom (THAT was a pain in the as* as it flew off and unwound a ton of filament that I had to rewind by hand and figure out how to put it back on!
If you have 18 volt black and decker goods like I do, then you'll REALLY like having the two extra batteries and one extra charger. I have 4 batteries and 2 chargers amongst all the goodies now so I know i'll always have more than enough juice for anything around the house.
I would vote 5 stars, but the plastic has a cheapy feel.

Black & Decker ST1000 9-Inch 1.8 amp Electric Grass Trimmer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This small, light weight trimming/edging tool cuts in 9-inch swathes at a time. Because of its size, it is more controllable than the larger (12" - 14") trimmers.

The larger, more powerful trimmers are not suitable for many lawns. I took back one because of its imprecise cutting. The powerful motor resulted in the shredding of a wood edging that separates the lawn from an adjacent mulched area.

One problem with all trimmers is that there is nothing to catch the flying bits of lawn.The only thing that might help in the future is to lay a sheet over the mulched area adjacent to the lawn to catch the cuttings, and move the sheet as I go along. Perhaps this should come with a sheet? Again, the smaller, less powerful machine's precision reduces excess trimmings. This is also a less noisy machine and is easier to store than the more powerful trimmers.

Features include a trimming option so that you can trim lawn under protruding bushes or around rocks, etc. There's also a locking feature for the electric cord. YOu do need to occasionally "bump" the machine (literally lighting hitting it against the lawn) to advance the cutting wire, this takes a little practice to get right. However, the learning curve is fast, after a few outings I thought this was a fairly useful machine.

Update:

I now would not recommend this unless one has previous satisfied experience with it, or something very similar. The main problem is the weight of the cutting assembly at the end of a long "pole."The physics are simply against the user.
Add to that the need to recharge and replace the cutting wire, and, for ME, the disadvantages outweigh the benefits highlighted in the original review.

Product Description:
If you're in the market for a basic, entry-level electric trimmer to handle light trimming work around your house, the Black and Decker 9-inch grass trimmer might be worth considering. While certainly not as powerful or feature-laden as more costly models, this trimmer can handle much of the light-duty work many homeowners need. The trimmer weighs just 3.2 pounds and requires little assembly with just 2 steps. It operates off a reliable, 1.8-amp HP motor, which spins the line at 11,000 rpm. This grass trimmer features a basic bump feed line system, a generous nine-inch cutting path, and a secondary assist handle for added comfort and control. It comes with 20 feet of .065-diameter line, and spool replacement is fairly simple. One thing I found especially handy with this particular trimmer was its unique cord lock system, which holds the extension cord firmly in place while the trimmer is in use. As someone who has accidentally unplugged a trimmer halfway through a job on more than one occasion, this indeed a handy feature to have. This product is backed by a 2-year full warranty. --Carl Thress
