There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So, I took a gamble on Black & Decker. There were a few negative reviews of this product, but reading them ( as I always do ), it seems like most of the 1s were shipping problems, broken on delivery, or user error.
A weed-eater is a pretty simple mechanism, so I took a chance and it seems to have paid off.
This took "literally" 3-4 minutes to unbox and set up. I did not even have to look at the manual, though I did glance at it before I used it to see if there was anything important I missed. I missed nothing.
I circled the yard clearing up weeds and along the house and brick edging in 10-15 minutes. Got some nice exercise and sun and the unit gets compressed for storage and is easily put away.
I recommend this for light yard duty, and perhaps even a larger yard if you are on a budget and probably will not abuse the tool. Just be patient and let the string do the cutting.
Oh, and did I mention this thing is super-light? I was initially skeptical it could do the job when I unboxed it, but its lightweight is a plus.
As always, if I have a problem with this, it breaks or turns out to be too expensive to operate ( some reviewers have claimed the ate up a whole spool of filament in their first use - mine did not ) I will return and update my review.
Very ... no, exceedingly happy not to have spent a ton of money on something that is not that important to me, but needs to get done, and to have gotten a superior tool for my time and money. I'd call it my Best Buy of the year so far. Rating 5/5 - Highly recommended.
I recently moved into a place that includes landscaping services but I have a small area out back that landscaping doesn't care for so I needed something small for light jobs again and picked this up with memories of my old cheap one from 20yrs ago that should do just fine. This thing has more power than I ever remember my old electric B&D weed eater having and is kind of overkill for the little 50sqft area I need it for. I expected the telescoping and twisting handle to be janky and wobbly but nothing could be further from the truth. It's easy to handle and easy to adjust.
It's light, cheap, and powerful. Way better than I needed or expected. You're not going to start a landscaping business with it or tackle a forest of a back yard of overgrowth, but I could actually see myself using it for a decent sized yard if I needed to. And if I'm only going to use it 2-3 times a year I can't complain about the price either.
It came almost fully assembled, and the pieces not attached were simple to affix. It is small, lightweight, and easy to use. Due to the size, it may pose a problem for someone of tall stature.
The quality is decent. It came with a spool of line, but if you have a large yard… beware, you will need to buy more. The line cut through the weeds with ease. It runs out quickly.
One of the features I purchased it for is actually the thing I am deducting a star for… the wheel edging feature. It is much easier to edge without the wheel. The wheel is a bit awkward, but it does work. I like to be able to get a good, clean line and move fast. This did not allow for that. The wheel is great for my daughter because she is not adept with a weed eater since she’s not had to do much lawn work.
Overall, we’re very happy with this purchase.
