About BLACK+DECKER Electric Hedge Trimmer
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
81% appreciated the long battery life, although 19% thought it drained quickly
Having a cord is a pain, but my new trimmer does a better job than my old cordless one and there are no interruptions while recharging the battery.
After 20 minutes of usage, the trimmer started to smoke and shut off immediately.
While trimming a bush, I noticed that the trimmer suddenly stops and I have to release the trigger and press it again to get it going. It's frustrating because I've only used it for 2 hours.
I will buy a different trimmer brand in the future due to dissatisfaction with the battery life of the product.

I compared the ease of use of this power trimmer with that of a manual hand trimmer. It took me an hour to trim the bushes with a manual hand trimmer last year, but I was able to do it in less than 10 minutes with this power trimmer and I ended up way less sore or sweaty.
