Bought the Pro 60V a year ago when my gas trimmer died since I already had the 60V blower which is great. The one pro is that this machine easily has enough battery life to get my two acres done. Cons are plentiful: bump feeder barely works and sometimes doesn't at all, the balance of the unit is terrible, reloading the trimmer line is difficult and wasteful, the ergonomics are awful, and I can't adjust it enough to make it better--dont' buy it if you're 5'10" or more. I can't wait for this thing to die so I can buy something else.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this trimmer to replace my old gasoline trimmer and I am soooooooo glad I did!! It is very easy to use, light weight, but extremely efficient.
Works well but a little heavy and not well balanced, but does the job.

My favorite thing about this tool, second only to the relatively quiet use, is the use as an edger with the separate triggers. Feels like a two in one!
