It has good power and the fact that it is cordless affords great freedom for the user. I do wish it came with a shorter blade (16 or 18")

I own a new 24" electric B&D trimmer, however, I have a large property and a cord would just not do it. I bought a new B&D cordless 22" trimmer and to my surprise after two solid days of cutting I found this trimmer did it all. In fact, I got so taken up with this trimmer I leveled my 25 square miles, not a thing standing, and started on my neighbors when I was arrested for tresspassing, under the influence and carrying a deadly weapon and its only 9 am. Now what am I going to do?

I love this hedge trimmer! I have a fair number of bushes and hedges that need trimming, but always hated having to trim them mainly becuase of the tools. I had a corded model (also a B&D) that cut very well, but the cord was always a real pain -- it always got snagged on something, and I ended up spending more time dealing with the cord than actually trimming. Looked into a gas model, but the weight was an issue, as well as the noise.
The cordless B&D is a fantastic tool! It lets you concentrate on the trimming. Ready to go in a second (no cord to unwind and plug in) and the battery lasts a decent interval. No, it's not an everlasting battery that will run for hours, but that's an easy problem to solve -- just get a second battery so if the first one gives up before you're done, you just pop in another.
Nicely balanced and easy to handle. Highly recommend!!

It's light enough that I can wield it one-handed in tight quarters. With no cord I can lug it easily anywhere in the yard. It is adequately powerful for most of what I intended to cut with it though I noted it could not handle some small branches that my old manual scissor-style clippers could. Still, what it could cut was more quickly and easily done than I could have managed with those old clippers.

As someone resisting a power tool in favor of hand clippers, I have been surprised at how much faster and with superior results the cordless trimmer achieved. It was easy to handle (lightweight), cut very precisely, and the charge was more than adequate. My use was primarily on 7'and 8' pines (20 more or less) that I am shaping to stay small and manageable and I must say they look terrific.The long and short of it that I now actually look forward to doing what was an odious task. Shipment from Grady Hardware was immediate.
