Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker 18-Volt Cordless Electric Lawncare Center #CCC3000
Customer Review: Great Green Lawn Care Alternative
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great alternative to the task of storing / mixing fuel for gardening chores. A great valvue as well, buying in the complete set. It comes with a handy storage rack for the tools and charger for the batteries. They are wall mount so they take up little valuable floor space. I cant think of a better tool for an apropriate size yard.Customer Review: Petrolheads beware! You might change your mind
Summary: 4 Stars
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.Customer Review: Great product if you have appropriate expectations
Summary: 5 Stars
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.
Customer Review: great stuff
Summary: 5 Stars
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!Customer Review: Yard work made easy!
Summary: 5 Stars
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!!
