BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX String Trimmer and Edger 2 in 1, Cordless Weed Wacker with Auto Spool Feed, Battery and Charger Included, 12 Inch Steel Deck, Reduced Vibration (LST300)

As a long-time BLACK+DECKER user, I recently purchased my second 20V MAX String Trimmer and Edger. My first trimmer served me well for many years without any issues. Last year, my kids gifted me a different, heavier trimmer for Father’s Day, so I passed my original Black+Decker on to someone else. However, when spring arrived, my wife found the new trimmer too heavy, and I agreed that it became tiring after a full yard trim. That’s when we decided to return to the reliable and lightweight Black+Decker model, which brings me to this review. The BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX String Trimmer is impressively lightweight and extremely easy to handle, making it perfect for anyone who wants a hassle-free trimming experience. A single battery charge easily covers my entire yard, and having a spare gives me extra peace of mind. Reloading the line is quick and straightforward, which is a huge plus. Overall, I have no complaints and highly recommend this product to anyone looking for an effective and user-friendly trimmer.

Bought this B&D trimmer to replace the one I have had for many years that I could not longer repair the "inners" of the worn trigger that I finally gave up trying to repair. This one has an automatic feed for the line which my old one did not. For the price, if I get five years of use out of this one, I will be happy. A plus is it also uses the same battery as my old B&D trimmer, so I now have three batteries. It is light weight for this "senior" lady to use. Height adjustable for this short gal also. Happy trimming!

This replaced a 5 yr old trimmer (same model) that finally quit. The new one is noticeably less powerful with a slower spin speed, but still is effective. I get about 15 mins of use per battery. Charging takes several hours. It's good to have additional batteries, though 15 mins is usually enough run time. I love how the batteries are also used in a variety of other devices. Easy to change out the string cartridges. Far quieter and more convenient than a gas trimmer.

Among the Bargain price trimmers, it's hard to ask for more than this one gives. Easy to use, the line rarely fouls, and it's easy to untangle. Light weight, mobile, cordless, reliable, strong- for a small back yard with an operator that is only in the yard because he has to be, this unit is great- especially for the price. I chop a 30'X13' yard of 6" high thick mixed weeds to ground level in 15-20 minutes with this and I still have charge in the battery.

Very light and easy to handle! The battery does not last long so I advise buy an extra battery or two. I love this machine! I did my whole yard and was not tired. This has been a life saver.

It is easy to use and I love the light weight. Only used twice so far and it did a good job but it used a whole reel for the two trimming, so you need to order additional reels of string. It could be that I turned it off and on too often and used up too much sting. I did a better job than my gas powered trimmer, faster and easier to trim around the sidewalks with the built in guide.

The string trimmer works. Have not used it yet. I like some of the features. How ever the photos and description are deceiving when it comes to the charger. It shows wall mountable charger that you put the battery in. But you get a charger that you put on the battery. Not very happy with that. Now i have to buy a new charger. I am going with a quick charger. I have 1 2amp and 2 4amp batteries.

It is so easy to use and it is light. The one thing I would suggest is to buy an extra battery . It doesn’t last long . However for the price it is a great product . This was also my first time ever weed eating :)

There's a lot to like about this little trimmer. It's relatively lightweight, easy to use, and has enough power for a cordless to make you not regret buying it. The packaging nests the charger out of sight inside what might first be mistaken as just a piece of cardboard to hold the handle secure in the to of the box. If you're not looking for it, you might toss out the battery charger with the box - so keep that in mind. The battery is supposed to take 5 hours to charge from nothing, but I think it only took about 3 hours - either way, you probably won't be using it out of the box. Assembly instructions are provided, but it was so straight forward, I didn't bother reading them, and had it pieced together inside five minutes. You'll need a Phillips screwdriver for a single screw. After I charged it up, I went out to attack the weeds that had been growing unchecked for the last month, and was pleased at the performance. It was able to chew through four foot tall thistles (with a bit of work - they *are* nasty, fibrous, sons of guns if you let 'em grow) with out much trepidation - and could eat through normal grass in a single, unyielding pass. I picked mine up for $85 in June 2018, so my review reflects that price point. Seller shipped quickly, and all arrived as it ought to have. I'd recommend this for anyone who wants to ditch the cord, or the noise (and heft) of a gas powered trimmer.

Nice and light little tool. Takes 5 hours to charge the battery and one the first charge it only lasted 20 mins. Second charge just over 30. Hoping it will increase a bit more. Buy a replacement nylon when you order as the one with the product is super short. Oh and this is imported from the US so you need a step-down converter as well. Kind of working out expensive!

This one of my favorite outside tools , very light and easy to use

This trimmer does a great job - I've bought two of them - but be warned that the battery is good for only about 20 minutes of continuous use. We live in the country, where we have about an hour's work to do, and even with two batteries we need to recharge them before we can finish. Aside from the short battery life I really enjoy this product.

First of all, I'm not a handywoman at all. I was spoiled to have others /guys did it for me. Under the current circumstances, I have left with a DIY option or wait till all the weeds are 2 feet high. I was nervous to buy lawn equipment online and to use it the first time. After spending more time research than waiting for the delivery, I finally got it three days ago on amazon prime. Today I was brave enough to open the box and pleasantly found that it is not only super light but also well-built and needs no tools for assembling it. ok, you only need a screwdriver to take the only screw out and put it back when connecting to the main part of the equipment. after charging the battery for about 4-5 hours. I went out to test it. Wow, I am so excited by how easy and effortless this trimmer operates. After spending a good half an hour cleaning up front and backyards weeds, and flower beds, the battery is still working fine. I’m very happy and pleased with the first lawn equipment I own and use it without tears or frustration. Ladies, be brave and try this one, you will like it. now you know why guys call their tools toys. I enjoy using it and the result is amazing too. who does not like a fresh-cut and weed-free lawn?
