Yard work made easy!

I love 'em! I got so tired of trying to get the gas hedge trimmer started I wanted to scream. Then the darn gas lines cracked on the weed whacker I'd had enough. After doing some research, I discovered the line of lawn tools by Black and Decker. I have used their cordless drills and sanders for years now so it was a natural progression. The power center has made it so easy. I even use it to charge my drill battery packs. If the battery goes low, grab another and keep going. I now trim and clean up with my weekly mow and my yard looks great. It sure beats pulling cords and $4 a gallon gas!!

Great product if you have appropriate expectations

I like the whole line of B&D 18V cordless yard tools: Weed Trimmer, Hedge Trimmer, Blower, and Chain Saw. These are clearly homeowner quality. That doesn't mean their bad, just that they're not professional grade. And that's just fine, since I'm not a professional landscaper.

For my standard city plot, I have waaaay more juice than I need with the 3 included batteries. I imagine it's enough juice for a moderate sized suburban lot, as well. If you have a LARGE lot, you may want to go gas.

The weed trimmer works just fine, and I like the edging feature - it worked far better than I expected, even on my grossly overgrown lawn edges. The hedge trimmer gets the job done, though if you have high hedges you may want the model with the extension handle. And the blower works fine for clearing debris off pavement and flat surfaces (not so much debris on/in grass). If you want or need professional performance, this isn't the product for you. But if all you're doing is standard yard maintenance for an average house, these get the job done effectively, efficiently, quietly, and inexpensively.

Great combo kit for your yard!

When I bought this combo pack I saw a lot of comments that it did not have enough power for the job. Batteries do not last long enough. Well I also saw the review about the products were great for todays size lawns. This person is correct. Most houses in the western and southwestern US do not have large lot sizes. In some cases one might ask why we even own lawn mowers. I live in Arizona and we enjoy our lawns, trees and bushes. I always hated to drag out the extension cord and all the hassle that was. The combo pack comes with 3 batteries (and the charger for all 3). You can buy more if you want. I do not use all 3 tools at the same time so I have enough power for my lawn everytime I use them. If you have the smaller lot size these tools are great and save space in the garage (or storage area). Black & Decker Great work!

great stuff

a no brainer. great products that work great. if you have a 10-acre yard you might go in a different direction. but this equipment is perfect for small and mid-sized yards. Gas be gone!

Petrolheads beware! You might change your mind

Well, living among major petrolheads, they looked at us very strangely when we mentioned that we wanted a battery operated trimmer and blower for our 1+ acre of land. We looked at all the major stores (Home Depot, Lowes, etc.) and couldn't find them anywhere. This was exactly what we were looking for, with a hedge trimmer thrown in for good measure. Sure, you actually have to remember to charge the battery, and each battery is good for about 25 minutes, but you get three batteries - do the math. The trimmer is brilliant, and the blower works well (could be a little more powerful, but a good start.) At least we are not always running out of petrol, and doing our bit for the environment.
