## Questions & Answers

**Q: So, is this product an edger, trimmer, weed wacker and power blower, all in one?**
A: It's also not a trimmer (if you were meaning the hedge trimmer shown in the video). That's a different product. This one is just the weed whacker/edger.

**Q: Does this come with the battery and charger?**
A: Mine came with 1 charger and 2 / 20 DC volt batteries. Shop around and look for the best deals. After I bought mine I saw I could have gotten it for half what I paid and the newer ones come with a 40 DC volt battery.

**Q: What is the advantage of having 2 - 1.5 amp-hour batteries as opposed to 1 - 3.0 AH battery?**
A: Also, the 1.5 amp weighs about half the other, so it is balanced.   The 3.0 would make it top heavy.

**Q: how long is runtime on a fully charged 1.5 ah battery? we only got 10 minutes use**
A: I've had 2 of these batteries for my weed whacker for about 5 years now. The first few years, they would last about 30-40 minutes each. The last couple years they would only last about 15-20 mins each. Now they last 2 minutes at the most, so they've obviously reached their expiration. I'm not complaining. I got a lot of use out of them and they lasted longer than expected.
Please keep in mind: your run time will greatly depend on what you're using the batteries for, and whether it's continuous or intermittent run time.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as described.  I'm happy with it and did every test I could before writing the review.
*by C***F on June 29, 2025*

I watched a video on youtube for this model and it was extremely helpful. I mucked around with the two power settings and it works as stated - less power for easy-to-cut grass/weeds and more power (that will drain the battery faster) for most edging and tougher grass.This is our second/third B&D weed whacker. The last one lasted a couple of years when the spool stopped working. I had to manually pull out the line because after fairly short time, the button didn't release the line.I did all the trimming needed over a period of a few days due to the weight of the tool or my lack of strength. I kept one backup battery from the B&D I trashed (so have three batteries) and ultimately, it's why I decided to stay with B&D. They don't last long but with 3 batteries, I'm fine and the old one battery still works.I looked at comparably-priced Worx and debated between the two. I liked the weight on this but I assume the weight is without the battery. I'm a senior female and do enough work on the house that 5 lbs shouldn't be heavy but it is. However, I've easily done the edging and whacking on an unfortunately large corner lot. The wheel comes in handy and I'm don't know the Worx (w/two wheels) would've been any better - the edging looks pretty straight w/one wheel.I've probably run the machine for a couple of hours. Time will tell about how long it actually lasts but so far, it's really nice to have a weed whacker that's easy to use, easy to change settings, the string comes out without issue and I really like it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for around the house.
*by A***E on July 7, 2025*

I had the previous model and it lasted a long time. I decided to get another for my in-laws. This isn't anything heavy duty, but it does the job around a normal house. The batteries last about 30-40 minutes which is enough for one house. The string spool is easy to replace and also lasts a few months, if not the whole summer. The length is good for me (5'9"). It's pretty quiet compared to gas and doesn't weight that much. The value is fair. You could go cheaper or more expensive, but I like this quality and power with weight.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Black and Decker Trimmer
*by G***G on June 13, 2025*

I have trouble with the auto feed for the line. You have to push a button. I'm not sure what is going on with it. My last one did it by itself. Didn't have to do anything. Just drop your line in and go. This one I'm constantly having to mess with. Other than that it is fine. And I can use all the batteries I previously had for the last trimmer.
