I returned after using it for 20 minutes. Being battery operated and the battery located at operating handle, it was difficult for me to balance and use easily.
Also, being battery powered, the blade did not cut cleanly and the shrubs (yews) did not look as good as they look when I use my electric black and decker. I probably should have known those problems in advance.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I like everything about the trimer so far. I have yet to re-string it. I may adjust the rating accordingly.

I really like the lightweight feel and it is powerful. The battery recharges in 15 minutes so if I have a lot of work, charge time is minimal. I recommend this purchase.

Best move ever. No more mixing gas and oil, no changing spark plug, no hard starting or stalling. Enough to do the entire yard which needed cut real bad.
I would recommend this to a friend!

battery is good, a little heavy but strong. The string trimmer it came with works great with the battery.

My new PWR CORE 40 LITHIUM 2.5AH 40V Battery charges rapidly and holds it charge for the trimming of my lawn. My lawn is not large, but it works well for me and does a great job.
I would recommend this to a friend!
