Seems to work well, albite only using it for less than a week. I seems to have plenty of power, and I like the trigger speed control. The battery charges up fast and lasts quite a while. I mainly bought this so my wife can help me trim; my gas powered trimmer is too heavy and way too difficult for her to start. This coreless trimmer fills the bill well.

I also own The $99 brushed version of this. This one is so much more powerful... The variable speed is Handy. Unfortunately it has so much power I already damaged some siding... My fault but it does have variable speed so I need to use that a little better. It has a high and low speed with a variable trigger. This has enough power it makes me glad I didn't go with a 36 volt because the extra weight and power really are unneeded.
