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

Comment: I'm so glad I bought this weed trimmer.
I have quite a large lot and this trimmer is perfect for me.
I keep both batteries charged and get about 20 minutes per battery.
That is plenty of time for me.........that way I don't overdo.
Great purchase.

Comment: I do not think this model was ever designed for a large job/area or tough weeds/grass. I find it has it place as a touch-er upper when you don't want to deal with a long extension cord or the heavy duty "artillery" gas and oil high horse power week eater. For the right light trimming job it is very convenient.

Comment: The product arrived as ordered. It is a reconditioned model but it appears to be a brand new trimmer. It came with two batteries and both have charged appropriately. Because we still have a few feet of snow, I can't state how well it trims but will know in a few months!

Good value for the product and it was free shipping! I'm satisfied so far.

Comment: I have used a gas trimmer years ago and recall trying to pull the cord to get it to start. Not good for someone with a bad back. I love this trimmer. I have had it for over a season and it works great on my pseudo landscaped quarter acre. Don't expect it to do well on very thick stalks or "weed whacking" as we call it on the farm, but it's great for small trimming. Girls, if you have a husband, make him decide on which trimmer to buy but for yourself, you will love this. I do have to use both battery packs but it's nice that I have a third from my cordless drill if I need it. The hardest part about this product for me is trying to remember to go in the basement and switch out the batteries when charging them. It definitely worth not having to pay $30 for a landscape service to come. Buy an electric start gas push mower to go along with this trimmer. No messing with those aweful pull cords for starting.

Comment: I have numerous Black and Decker Cordless items and thought this might fit my needs at work. Have a 10 X 20 patch of grass in front and not worth getting a mower for. This just did nothing. I used a battery up and hardly cut any grass at all. Can't give it away. It sits waiting for one of my children to have a garage sale.
