I am happy with the performance. Not as fast as my old gas model for sure, but it is lighter and easier to use without killing my back. 1/2 hour of trimming is all I want to do at one time anyway.
The edger was great. The wheels help take the strain off your back since you can rest it on the cement driveway as you walk along. This unit is not going to dig any trenches, but I'm fine with that. I never used to edge anyway, but this is so easy, from now on I will edge after any trimming.
Concerning the auto line feed - After 10 minutes of solid trimming, I needed to stop and restart the trimmer to advance the string. I actually used the manual button on the spool and pulled out what I needed. This thing is working OK. I just need to let it stop every few minutes to advance more line.
I'm generally happy with the purchase, but really wanted a 36Volt Lithium model, but couldn't find one.
