Good but not perfect
I used super saver shipping and it took about 3 weeks to get it. When it finally arrived, it was packaged well and after a charge fired right up.

I need to clip the hedges about 3 times a summer.
So far I've trimmed about 25 bushes and it works as well as the old electric one it replaced. Its light and so far the battery has held a charge well. I really like not having to use the extenstion cord which my Dad cut with the previous corded trimmer.

A couple complaints are that my right hand gets a cramp after about 20 minutes as it tends to continually squeeze the on/off switch probably much harder than necessary. I also notice that the plastic case seems to separate a bit when I am moving through heavy work. I'm sure there are better/study units out there but for the occasional work I do, this fits the bill. One other nice thing is I have some other tools which also use the 14.4 Volt batteries from B&D. ... Read more

Good value for the money
I wanted a reconditioned tool because the cost was cheaper than a brand new one. Considering I do yardwork only 1-2 times per month, I didn't need a "really good" one.

This B&D trimmer did a good job on branches up to 3/8" thick. Anything thicker will result in "tearing" instead of cutting.

It's fairly loud and the ergonomics are not that great. However, for the price I paid here on Amazon, it is a good deal.

The best!
If you are looking for a trimmer that can deal with shrubs and bushes in the heat, or extended running time, this is it! The price is appropriate, and the quality that you will get from it is outstanding!

Another lawn-care purchase from Amazon.com!
Last year I bought a lawn mower; my wife was so satisfied with this purchase from Amazon, that this was the first place she looked when shopping for a badly needed hedge trimmer.

Suffice to say, we were not disappointed. The purchase arrived at our home from the Amazon.com Tool Crib in North Dakota in a timely manner via UPS; the hedge trimmer was already assembled, in mint condition (for a reconditioned item), and it came with a new purchase warranty, but not at a new-purchase price.

It is an excellent trimmer; sturdy, lightweight and easily manuverable. My 100lb. wife took a turn playing with it and was able to wield this baby in a manner that make a fan of the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" movies proud!

For the price, I would highly recommend this product, if you are in the market for a good, reliable, sturdy and easy-to-use hedge trimmer.

I am so pleased with this purchase, I won't think twice about making another tool or lawncare purchase thorugh Amazon.com. ... Read more

Left hand grip breaks due to inferior quality part
The metal left hand grip is attached to the handle with a flimsy plastic part that breaks from the vibrations of normal use. Mine broke after about 3 years of infrequent use in the Northeast. I stored the unit in a dark garage, so UV could not have been a factor. They should have named it "Glass Hog" instead of "Grass Hog". The time and effort required to replace the part, plus the cost of the part plus shipping, makes it uneconomic to repair the trimmer. Black & Decker design their products to last for the 2-year warranty period but not much more.

Two in Less thanTwo Years
I've just returned my second B&D string trimmer for the same mechanical problem -- the spool flies off while in use.The grooves holding the spool onto the drive shaft eventually strip.I used this product approximately twice a month during the grass-cutting season (March through October)...not heavy use in my opinion.I can only recommend that you not waste your time on this product.

Great Deal
This is a great deal on this trimmer, I have seen it for 79-99 $ in stores and this is just what I need and with free shipping too! ... Read more

Awesome from a Paid Professional
I have mowed 3 yards for 2 years now, a combination of 3 acres, only having to buy more cord (6) so far, and just recently another cord cover.
I've gotten numerous mowings out of this little machine.
True enough on the thick grass that would stall your lawn mower this weedeater doesn't stand a chance. I've used gas and corded weedeaters. Unless they just make some lemons no one has the right to give this machine anything less than 4 stars.

Small and Mighty
This Lightweight trimmer is easy to carry around, and does an excellent job.
A Charge seems to last forever.I Mow with a push reel mower, and the occasional long bit is left behind.I just follow up with this, and the lawn looks great!It is quiet and easy on the environment too.

underpowered for any real application
I wanted an electric string trimmer because I don't like the noise of a gas powered trimmer.A cordless trimmer appealed to me because I don't have to haul 100 feet of extension cord to use it.

Even though my yard is very small (1/4 acre) and I have nothing but grass to trim along the house and fence, this trimmer was far too under-powered.It simply wouldn't cut grass efficiently.I also found the automatic string feed to be unreliable...I would always end up with about 1 inch of string and I would have to tap it against the ground to try to get it to feed.Also, I found the unit uncomfortable to use - it's poorly balanced due to the heavy battery.

This season I broke down and replaced the cordless trimmer with a small 25cc gas powered unit.It is very noisy, but it gets the job quicker, easier, and better.

Unless you have a complete phobia of gas powered trimmers, I would not recommend this tool. ... Read more

A Really Practical High-Tech Toy... I mean Tool!
I asked for this Imow as a Father's Day gift.Wife was skeptical at first but she went along.It took some time to install the wire boundary for the whole yard but the mower worked quite well.Wife is impressed enough to consider getting one for her dad - maybe next year Father's Day.

The whole box weighs around 100 lbs so be really sure that you want and can use it as shipping to you is free but returning freight won't be.

Before you buy, go get a copy of the user manual from the manufacturer .. and verify that your yard terrain is within specs.Then do some paper layouts of the mowing plots.The thing uses a zigzag pattern to cover the area.You want to avoid bottlenecks/strait-like areas to allow it to traverse the plot.I found it more efficient to break a large block into smaller plots as the zigzags overlap with shorter distance between boundaries.My yard totals about 10000 sq ft with 4 plots.The smallest takes about 40 min., the largest 100 mins.With those work durations, it fully recharges overnight.

It is kind of fun to watch as it follows the boundary wire during the edge mode (very precise turning).The mowing is a triangular zigzag.Not entirely random though, I noticed it seems to track obstacles that it bumps into and maneuvers to avoid that area later on (my firmware is rev 3.2...)In any case, the pattern looks inefficient compared to the path a person would do.Just let the thing work and with enough time the grass becomes even.A couple trial runs and you can determine the correct time for each plot.

On dry days with long enough grass, I let it loose on a plot as I return from work.It is very quiet and can hang out thru dusk and night time w/o risk of West Nile, Eastern Equine Encephalitis and other nice effects of mosquito bites. And holy cow, I get to do other things on the weekend!

Finally, automation gets to the yard!I guess my son will have to do part-time web authoring for spending money in the future...

IMOW is our new pal!
Well, first off, my wife thought this was crazy. Sometime in the shopping process I did too. I mean, is it *that* hard to mow your own freakin' grass?

I grew up in Florida, where lawnmowing is an ugly chore, in 100% humidity, with sticky, hot grass all over your shoes, legs, etc.
Bad lawnmowing memories.
Now that I needed to buy a lawnmower of my own, I had always wanted to pick up one of those Freindly Robotics robomowers... When I saw Toro private-lable these things, give them a bigger battery, and then the prices kept falling, and then they had the refurbs even cheaper... I thought, heck, why not do it?

Report that I'm pretty pleased. I started the thing in the dusk, so I wouldn't be embarrassed by neighbors seeing this thing eat my flowerbeds, or small children if things went terribly wrong. Ended up with my wife and I with big silly grins as IMOW just ate our grass while we watched it (or tried not to watch it and look cool while the neighbors gawked and found excuses to come over and watch it - we're meeting a lot more neighbors now) The kids like IMOW ("Daddy, IMOW likes to mow ALL BY HIMSELF!") and so do I.
The down side is that there aren't quite enough pegs, especially if you have lots of obstacles that need the guide wire navigated around. The refurb didn't ship with a video or charger, I am assuming Toro will make good on parts if you didn't get everything in the 'open box specials' though.
If you have a relatively flat, square lawn free of lawn gnomes and junk, you are a prime hassle-free IMOW candidate.
