No bumping or turning off the motor to hassle with hand feeding string; Black & Decker's 18-volt cordless string trimmer features the company's exclusive Automatic Feed Spool (AFS) system that automatically advances cutting string without bumping. By letting centrifugal force feed the trimmer line as it is needed, you get a smooth consistent length of line for optimal performance. Battery-powered, this cordless string trimmer has the capacity to trim grass after mowing for up to a 1/2-acre home site on a single charge of both included 18-volt batteries. Quiet and easy to start, the unit requires no gas, oil, or tune-ups. The Grasshog's Groom 'N' Edge head rotates 180 degrees to convert the trimmer to an edger with a push of a button. When used as an edger, the flip-down edge guide keeps the Grasshog in line with sidewalks and driveways. A secondary handle adjusts for increased comfort and control. A lock-off switch prevents accidental start-ups to ensure safe usage every time. Your purchase includes a trimmer/edger, two 18-volt batteries and a charger. Black & Decker includes a 30-day no-risk satisfaction guarantee and full two-year warranty is provided.

User Comments about the Black & Decker NST2018 18-Volt Cordless Electric 12-Inch Grass Hog String Trimmer With Two Batteries

This trimmer is tough enough to do the job. I'm sold on the cordless yard tools. No gas with ethanol to ruin the carb of a 2 cycle. The batteries are the same as there other 18-volt tools.

I like this trimmer very much. I hate getting out electric cords for my large yard so this is just great. I can just go get it and snap a battery on and do my trimming. The batteries do not last for extended trimming but you get two so that works for me.

6-9 hours to charge the battery, 6-9 minutes to use it up should be included in the features copy. If you don't compare it to a gas model you will be less disappointed in performance of this 18volt.

It just doesn't work nearly as intensely after that period of time. I bought this primarily for our rather smallish patch of front lawn - and it does do a terrific job, and it exceeds my expectations of cutting through absolutely everything easily and quickly, BUT -- it comes with two rechargeable batteries and you're told they are supposed to work for approximately an hour at a time. They work really well for about twenty minutes and then they start to put forth less of a serious charge. It starts to feel "tired."I keep both batteries fully charged to do our front lawn and the trimming and use almost both batteries to do it.I am very pleased with the machine, BUT the batteries should really hold a fuller charge for longer than they do. You can tell when you're using the weeder.

To give you an idea, it takes aprox. Worked perfectly. Just purchased my first home. Actually worked better than I expected, and I am very happy with my purchase. However, my yard is very small and I knew I wanted something environmentally friendly. Used it to trim taller grass and weeds along the borders of our garage and fence - also used it to edge around a bricked landscaped area. Just put this together and used it for the first time tonight.

I was a little hesitant about buying over-priced cordless tools because of the bad reviews they often get here. 10-15 minutes to mow our entire lawn. (after charging the batteries overnight) I was very happy with how well things went.
