Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker ST1000 9-Inch 1.8 amp Electric Grass Trimmer
Customer Review: Best $20 I ever spent!
Summary: 4 Stars
For the $19.97 purchase price this little machine does the job and does it well. Ok, it is short for my (used to be 6 foot) frame and causes me backaches but the majority of Americans are below 5'9". Those who are tall with disabilities - think about doing the job in very short runs.
I chose not to buy the refills as two of them are the price of the machine. I am still on my first reel with a few feet left to go. I doubt that one reel will go a full season. I am able to trim around the mailbox, up and at the bottom of fences and close to the house. This probably explains why 1 reel won't survive a season - I go really close and cut thick weeds, stalks and growth up and down my chain link fence.
One feature I especially like is the cord holder. Squeeze a button in the handle, fold over the electric cord and stuff it in the handle cavity. Releasee the button and you will not be pulling out the electric cord as you work.
2 year warranty too if I remember correctly. For a corded weed wacker, this has plenty of power. Liteweight, but stubby. The plastic body can take a drop ok. It's fallen over in my shed with no problem.
I should probably write another review after I refill the cord from the 500' spool I purchased at the same time. If you want to hold off until then, fine - but for less than 20 bucks - you'll miss out on a lot of weed wacking. Why is that the weeds grow twice as high and twice as fast as the grass? Heck, I've used this to cut the grass is small spaces instead of dragging out the lawn mower. One B&D product that I actually recommend and tell my neighbor every time I'm using it - best twenty bucks I've ever spent.

Customer Review: Black & Decker Electric Weed Trimmer
Summary: 4 Stars
Replaced an electric Toro trimmer that lasted 20 years. Motor is not as powerful but adequate. Heavier than previous trimmer but light compared to most electric trimmers available today. Bump feed works adequately, although there is sometimes a delay in the feed (must run full speed for several seconds after bump feed before line advances). Plastic case seems fairly rugged. Overall seems decent so far for the price, which was cheap.Customer Review: Black & Decker ST1000 9-Inch 1.8 amp Electric Grass Trimmer
