Product Description

The key to a well-maintained lawn? The right tools, of course—like BLACK+DECKER’s cordless string trimmer/edger. Take on weeds, overgrowth, and unruly grass with this 2in1 essential. It’s equipped with a POWERDRIVE Transmission, which delivers more power from the motor to the cutting string. An AFS AUTOMATIC FEED SPOOL automatically feeds the trimmer line, meaning you won't have to interrupt your work to bump the trimmer on the ground. The POWERCOMMAND dial lets you toggle between max runtime and max power, so you can optimize your tool for the best results. This kit also includes a 40V MAX* lithium ion battery that ensures a long runtime and is compatible with other tools within the system. And your comfort is always a priority thanks to design elements like an instant trigger, a soft-grip main handle, an adjustable auxiliary handle, and a telescoping pole that adjusts to the perfect height. *Maximum initial battery voltage (measured without a workload) is 40 volts. Nominal voltage is 36 volts.

Love this trimmer. I used to work for a professional landscaping company a long time ago, and thought gas powered was the only way to go. Probably makes more sense if you're going to use it all day long, but for me trimming my lawn 1-2 times per week, this is perfect. I have had this for two years now and never had a problem. I am really impressed with the fact that it took me almost two years before I needed to replace the spool of string. I read that some people rewind them, I'm perfectly happy to pay for a new spool every 1-2 years at the rate I'm going, and I don't have a small yard. The battery sits on the charger when I'm not using it, I even kept it there over the winters with no problems. I personally don't use the variable speed, I keep it on max and don't change it. The only thing I found annoying was the "safety" button that you're supposed to push before you can pull the trigger and make it work. The button is uncomfortable to push and really annoying. I found an easy solution to that... Push the button all the way in from one side, drill a small hole in the black button close to the handle, then hammer in or glue a small nail. This locks the "safety" button and you never have to push it again, just pull the trigger and weed whack away (see pictures). I don't use the 180 degree rotation feature, I just flip it upside down for edging driveways / sidewalks, the metal guide is pretty cool, it's not the most robust, so would be easy to break if your are not careful, but it works well. I don't usually write reviews, but am impressed with this product, and hopefully the nail tip will help prevent some thumb pain and annoyance as it did for me.

I purchased this trimmer in early July, 2019 and used it for approximately six weeks with no complaints. Then, strangely, the cutting mechanism and the string compartment became loose and would drop when I started to trim. Immediately, I undertook to reach the B&D Service department, using the telephone number provided in the Manual. Day after day, I attempted to get through but never once did I ever advance beyond the very polite recorded message that informed me that I was a valuable customer and that I should keep trying. After many attempts and wasted time, that message wears thin! Finally, i asked one of my sons to investigate and when he dismantled it, discovered that the cheap, plastic gear had been chewed to pieces (see debris in photos, which appears sort of greenish but is chewed up plastic, not dead grass). Obviously, I am NOT a happy customer. My $200 did not purchase a reliable trimmer. This model was the third B&D trimmer that I have purchased in the last five years; it was the most expensive and I expected that it would perform longer than the previous two but alas, it was a vain expectation, as it didn't perform as long as either of the former. I am finished with B & D! This year, I sprung for a Husqvarna trimmer, which was almost twice the cost of the cheaply made B & D trimmer, but it is still tearing through weeds and grass like there is no tomorrow. The Husky is a lovely machine which has not faltered in either efficiency or performance. If you have more than a postage-stamp sized yard to trim, don’t be deceived that the B&D will be capable of the task. SO LONG B & D!!
