Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker NST2018 Grass Hog 12-Inch 18-Volt Cordless Electric String Trimmer with 2 Batteries

Customer Review: I find it very handy
Summary: 5 Stars

I did read the reviews on this item before I purchased it. I also have owned most of the conventional string trimmers. I wanted to get away from gas or cords so this looked really nice.
I purchased the string trimmer and then thought about it and purchased the Black and Decker blower seperately. They both come with 2 batteries. I was concerned about running out of power so the 4 batteries sounded really good to me.
I also wondered about the life span of the ni cad batteries. They do suffer from memory problems if they arn't charged correctly. I know from experience that you just run the battery down and then recharge it, it stops the memory problem that will rob your battery from charging it to quickly.
I also wondered if you could leave the battery in the charger for a long time without it ruining the battery. I read in the manuel that you can just leave it in the charger and when it comes to a complete charge the charger will just go to a maintaince level and not ruin the battery.
I have used this trimmer once now. I am happy with it. I read a review where someone said when he bumped the trimmer for more line the spool came off. If you read the manuel it says not to bump the trimmer IT IS NOT A BUMP FEED TRIMMER. So don't bump it on the ground it will just mess up the spool. IT IS A AUTO FEED system that seems to work nicely.
I take care of two yards that is just over half acre in size. The first battery ran low when I was about 75% finished. I think it went along time on the first battery. It trimmed everything in my yard that I wanted it to trim. I just use it on grass and small items like plants or weeds nothing big. It says not to use on large items in the manuel. It is not designed for trimming bigger things.
My gas operated trimmer is sitting in the garage for larger things that need trimming. But so far this battery operated trimmer is the only thing I will need in my yard.
I havn't started the blower up to see how it works. But I do have 4 batteries and feel I will need them all if I use the trimmer and blower at the same time.
When I purchased this trimmer I noticed I could get $30. off if I started a Amazon Charge card. I am cheap and got the card and I think $30. is dinner out with my wife and why not. I also use Amazon for free shipping. It took about 6 days to get here, but I was not in any hurry to do the yard work anyways, it wasn't going anywhere. I saved money with shipping, I saved money with the charge card and it came to me in a ok time. So far everything has worked out great.
I think you should buy this product if you have a smaller type yard and don't have any big expectations on it. It is light and easy to handle and the charge on the battery seems to last longer then I thought it would.
So I give it a thumbs up.
