About Makita XRU23Z 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 13" String Trimmer
Overall Feedback:
91% positive
93% found it easy to carry
This trimmer is much lighter than my gas trimmer.
This trimmer is probably half the weight of a less-powerful gas trimmer, making it easy to carry for long hours of trimming.
The trimmer is easy to set up, maneuver, and get string to come out when needed. It's not that heavy.
83% found the multiple speed settings beneficial, but 17% didn't
I ran the trimmer on slow speed most of the time, which cut well. It also has a variable speed trigger with high speed like turbo.
I used a battery and a half for almost two hours of weed trimming.
I have to use the higher speed as the slow speed is not effective.
91% highlighted the easy assembly
Setting up the string trimmer was easy.
94% praised the impressive battery life, but 6% didn't praise
I purchased an aftermarket Bluest 6.0Ah battery to ensure enough battery life and have had no problems so far.
I expect half an hour of run time from the battery life, which seems okay.
I used a battery and a half for almost two hours of weed trimming.
I used two batteries, with the first lasting about an hour and the second still having half charge when I finished everything.

I love using the Makita string trimmer, it's very easy to use.
The string trimmer is easy to set up, not heavy, easy to maneuver, and has a long-lasting charge. It is also easy to get the string to come out when needed.
