do not get this trimmer. [Posted on 2007-07-20]
my roommate bought this when the ol' reliable black and decker electric trimmer gave up the ghost after years of abuse.
this trimmer is heavy, poorly balanced, and way too long if you are under 6' tall. it does not hold much string, runs out easily, and is a pain to reload (you cut two 10' lengths of line, thread them in, and turn the head until it loaded). it also is very difficult to disassemble the cutting assembly to unjam jammed line or if you twist too far while loading the the ends disappear. I can barely finish edging my front drive and sidewalk with one load, let alone the other edging tasks; and I am on an average suburban lot.
i only gave it two stars instead of one because it is quite powerful and the two lines sticking out make short order of weeds (before they quickly run out, of course).
