MAXMAN 47 in Cordless String Trimmer,21V Lithium Battery Garden Grass Trimmer, Suitable for Lawn Garden Pruning. Telescopic Rod and Adjustable Machine Head Includes 2 Batteries

It's easy and comfortable to use

I had my doubts about this little guy. I was wrong. My driveway is 900’ long , steep and the forest was closing in. The drop off on the driveway makes a walk behind useless. Did this cutter make my task an enjoyable experience? No. It was awful. Truly awful.. Is it able to cut through three year old saplings you’ve allowed to get out of hand? No. However, it performed admirably on normal brush, it’s lightweight and I was able to complete the whole driveway with one blade and never had to use the spare battery. Overall an impressive little machine!

Yes, I returned the tool. So, here's the problem with it. The power is just barely there. And the cutting radius of the blades on this tool is extremely small. It takes so much longer to cut with them than with a gas or electric weed wacker with a standard sized cutting radius. And the battery life for this tool is woefully inadequate (30 minutes max for each of the 2 batteries, so 1 hour max before you have to recharge). In an hour, I managed to cut about a 7 x 7 foot section of my lawn. Granted, the grass in my lawn is very thick, but still. If you already have a mower, and just want something for some light edging around your garden, or something like that, this might work for you. But if you want to cut your lawn . . . forget it. Also, the included circular saw blades for cutting brush are ineffective. Anything the circular saw blades can cut through, with some time and effort, I could cut through with one stroke of my folding pull saw. And anything that I would have to work at with my pull saw . . . you would use up all your battery life before you could cut through it with this tool and the circular saw blades. The advertisements present this as an effective multi-purpose lawn tool, but this is a very limited use tool, at best.

This is inexpensive but very lightweight with sharp blades. The only issue is holding the power button while using this hurts my hands after a few minutes - this is an area for improvement. But oh did it do a great job on an overgrown weedy side border of the property - worth every penny!!

Does anyone else hate cleaning up the sucker shoots from lilac bushes or shrubs??? So 4 years ago I purchased this property, yard has tons of old overgrown lilac bushes, shrubs, 50 trees, pond&waterfall 🐟, not to mention weed control. So I bought this to help w/lilac sucker clean up on 12 old overgrown bushes that probably should be cut down all together, but I have to pick my battles w/this HIGH MAINTENANCE yard 🤦🏻‍♀️!!! Anyway, it usually takes me close to 2wks to just tackle the lilacs. And man o man, the pain & agony (as I’m knockin on 60yrs old & beat up from my work lifestyle). Takes another 2wks just for my sore body to recoup from that one task on the long yard list 😩…So I specifically ordered this in Nov because it has cutting blades. Got lucky, had a $20 coupon @ $71. Finally used It today. Holy cow! It cut this time consuming project way down, which in turn means less backache! Win win!Wacked for 30 seconds a bush & able to get in & clean up all the suckers, leaves & debris much quicker. Then go back & cut the nubs down clean w/pruners without takin out an eye from get’n slapped by a switch 😂.Now I did NOT use the Safety Guard, as I needed to get right up to the pinky finger thick shoots, some were ring finger size. I did not get too low to the ground that it would kick up the rock. But I did use my PPE.This thing saved me!!! I’ll finish tomorrow - 2days in lieu of 2weeks. Heck yeah! 👍🤛 🙌🏽🫶🏼In the item description, it doesn’t make it seem that it would be capable of this type of job, but it was superior! Oh & very lightweight w/height adjustment, which is the other reason I purchased as I’m tall.

I really like this MAXMAN weed wacker, it makes quick time of my yard work. There are a few safety issue problems that I discovered when using the device. Luckily I am caution and aware of the injury aspect. PROBLEM# 1 - The first day I used the device with the round saw blade. It was cutting down all of my little sticked plants when the BLADE FLEW OFF. Luckily it flew away from me. I could not find the bolt, so I went to Lowe's to get another. They suggested that I also use a locking washer with the bolt. Problem solved.PROBLEM# 2 - When you take your fingers off of both button to stop the device, the blade continues to rotate for a while.Both of these problems could cause serious injuries if caution is not taken,
