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.
Good for small jobs:
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.
Product is as ordered:
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.
Perfect for Women who Want to Trim:
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... more info
