About Skil LT4823B-10 PWR CORE 20 Brushless 20V 13 String Trimmer Kit
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
76% found it easy to carry, but 24% didn't appreciate
Without the battery, the blower and trimmer are very lightweight.
Holding this string-trimmer for 20-30 minutes can cause fatigue. An optional sling would be helpful to hold it for long periods without getting fatigued.
I find the trimmer heavy and quite long. It would benefit from coming with a shoulder strap to distribute the weight better.
85% liked the quiet operation
While charging, the fan on the charger starts up with a satisfying hum, indicating that the noise level of the string-trimmer is not too high.
85% found the multiple speed settings beneficial, but 15% didn't
I have found that the trimmer has two settings, Low and High, and the High setting is powerful enough to trim blackberry brush.
I compared the power of this cordless trimmer with my 3-year-old EGO cordless trimmer and the power is still good.
I am dissatisfied with the variable speed functionality of the string-trimmer. It requires a tight grip to get it going at full speed.
80% highlighted the easy assembly
I found the assembly of the string-trimmer easy and uncomplicated. It only required attaching the shield and handle using the included hex tool.
I found the assembly directions simple and easy to understand. The box also included information on how to extend the warranty from 3 years to 5 years.
I found the blower super easy to assemble with provided steps. I am satisfied with the feature of Ease of Assembly.
84% praised the impressive battery life, but 16% didn't praise
The battery shipped at probably 50% charge, so it only took 10-15 minutes to top off.
I got just shy of 20 minutes of runtime with the blower set to High (not Turbo) and the trimmer performed just over 25 minutes. I usually use gas-powered equipment but still think that the runtime is pretty good.
The trimmer has a great battery life.
I could easily get 30 minutes out of this machine while doing relatively light work around the yard, but the battery life varies depending on the job.
79% found it easy to use, but 21% raised concerns
I found the setup of the string-trimmer fairly simple and uncomplicated.
The automatic line feeding feature did not work well for me.
