Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker 12-Inch 3.5-AMP Electric Bump Feed String Trimmer and Edger #ST4000

Customer Review: IT WAS GREAT, WHEN IT WORKED THAT IS
Summary: 1 Stars

Decided to do my own lawn work so I bought this , an electric mower and other stuff, it wasn't too hard to set up,the first time I used it, it was great, the next time I used it, it started off well then I smelt burning,smoke came out of the casing and I decided I'd better quit before it exploded or something. I called amazon and they promised a refund. I heard B&D were good, so I am hoping this is just a one-off. I wish the instructions were clearer too, like what do you do with the lengthening spool, trim it off ? leave it?

Description of Black & Decker 12-Inch 3.5-AMP Electric Bump Feed String Trimmer and Edger #ST4000

Don't think you're man or woman enough to handle a piece of power equipment? Fear no more. Black & Decker's bump feed string trimmer is a great buy for even the beginning gardener who needs to whack weeds regularly. Its 3-1/2 amp motor munches medium-to-thick weeds with precision and ease, even when weeds are a tangled web. The 12-inch cutting path and 10,000 rpm get the job done fast. This Black & Decker is easy to maneuver and can be used to trim weeds in some hard-to-reach places where other trimmers fail. It will also challenge thicker weeds, but watch out for vines, which can get tangled up above the cutting spool. To feed the spool, simply tap the trimmer against the ground.

Black & Decker definitely keeps the consumer in mind by providing comfort with an adjustable, textured top handle for firm gripping and maximum control. This string trimmer is not too heavy, either; weighing about 5 pounds, it's a good fit, even for smaller gardeners. You may start to feel a light vibration in your hands after a long trimming job, but it's minimal. This Black & Decker model can be used regularly and doubles as an edger. The Groom 'n' Edge button rotates the trimmer head 180 degrees to convert the trimmer to an edger and back again. In seconds, you can turn the head, and you'll hear the snap when it's in place. An edge guide provides precise trimming and edging around sidewalks and driveways and does a good job of keeping you at a safe distance from rocks or even the side of your deck or house.

This string trimmer, as well as most other electric trimmers, is best suited for small yards that are accessible with extension cords. Because electric trimmers are generally lighter and more comfortable, they are easy to handle. If you're looking to whack unruly weeds on your otherwise well-maintained yard, this electric trimmer is a less-powerful yet long-lasting alternative to more expensive gas-powered trimmers. Be sure to wear hand, eye, and foot protection when operating any trimmer. A 30-day no-risk satisfaction guarantee and full two-year warranty are included.
