This is a battery powered unit that is for light duty work. The string is not overly strong or wide, but it does the trick for light jobs. It is very easy to use and lightweight. It is made so junk does not normally fly up toward the user. The spools are extremely easy to replace, and they are fairly cheap (I bought several for 10 dollars). Also unlike my heavy duty electric corded one, this only has one string coming out of it whereas my heavy duty one has two strings that are heavier duty (thicker diameter), and it is much heavier and more powerful.

I cannot compare this to any other cordless trimmer, because this is my first, but it lacks any real power compared to my gas trimmer or corded trimmer. I bought it because every spring I have to have my gas trimmer repaired and I thought this would make a great option. I own a little less than an acre of land and I can't use a corded trimmer. My real problem with it is that I have to hold it in the same place for a long time in order to get it to cut. It leads to fatigue. If you have a small yard, this might be perfect for you, but if you have a tough hard to manage, you need more power.

Great as an edger, but not so good as a trimmer. The line used is so small that it will have a hard time cutting through anything bigger than wispy grass blades. It's also not designed very well for use as a trimmer. The head or end should be angled in a way that it lays flat above the ground. Instead you end up cutting at an angle which doesn't give you good looking results. As an edger though it was just what I needed. To put a nice cut on the edge of my lawn without having to carry it the whole length of the lawn. The wheels make edging a breeze. Some have complained about battery life. I haven't had any problems and I have a rather large yard to take care of. Would I buy again, yes.

it a good weedeater for the price, the only reason i gave it only four stars and not five is all the qvc video's about the 3.0 gt said in the video that it was a three in one, and its only two, it is only a weedeater and edger and not a mini mower, i bought it for my father who is 76 years old and still wont let anyone help him with his yard work, its light weight and we are both a little over six feet tall so the four more inch's of extension it has is really nice. has decent power but the battery does not last as long as the infomercial acted, his house is 65 feet long and i did the mail box, a couple trees and pole's and about 3/4 of the front of the house and the battery died, about 20 minutes of weed eating. but it does come with 2 batteries so that is pretty good if you have both charged up. all in all i would recommend this product. thanks rickRead full review

It's good for to use if the grass isn't to high. I edge mine with a gas edger the first time then use this one each time I cut it after that. If the grass gets to high I use my gas weedwacker for it, if the grass isn't to high this works fine. It's lightweight and is easy to use. I wouldn't take out my gas ones after each time I cut my grass but I do take this one out because it is so easy to use. My lawn looks great.
