We’ve had many trimmers over the years. These by far are the worst we’ve ever had.
The problem is the design of both the grass shears and the mini hedge shears. They do not cut anything. They are dull and set too far apart to effectively cut anything.
Plus for a 7.2 volt, which should be very powerful and have a long life battery this machine fails.
I usually love Black and Decker items, but these were returned after 10 minutes of attempted use.

I’ll be trying to return this product. After charging the batteries for about 3-4 days, I was able to get 10 minutes from the unit trimming the grass. What a waste.

The blades on this unit are no good at all.
I tried to cut grass, and 50% of the grass gets pushed sideways between the top and bottom blade. You just have to keep working on the same spot of grass to get it all cut. I tried the shrubber blade, and it also did the same thing.
The blades also rusted overnight. Maybe stainless would be a better choice for the blades.
I also had trouble with battery life. I charged for 2 days, and I got about 10 minutes out of it.
I think Black&Decker needs to go back to the drawing board on the basics for this tool. I do love their other 18V yard products, but this one has to be returned.

I’m a 65 year old granny with arthritic hands. This is the perfect tool for me. I cut shrubs, edge the walkway, chop down weeds, and shape hedges. Charge lasts about 20 min. before recharging. I am careful to clean the blades after each use and haven’t had any problems with rust, etc. It fits my hand, isn’t too heavy and it has been a terrific aid to me this spring. It is a great time saver and my hands don’t hurt!

Because I have arthritis in my hands, this tool has become my favorite for the yard & garden! I use the short attachment to edge areas where the lawn meets ground covers or planting beds (and a string trimmer would be too severe), and recently used the long shearing attachment to successfully trim six inches off the top and sides of some large and dense, unruly evergreen bushes. I also used it to easily trim boxwoods. On my most recent use, it ran for more than an hour of constant use without needing a recharge. The attachments are very easy to interchange.
