If you're in the market for a basic, entry-level electric trimmer to handle light trimming work around your house, the Black and Decker 9-inch grass trimmer might be worth considering. While certainly not as powerful or feature-laden as more costly models, this trimmer can handle much of the light-duty work many homeowners need. The trimmer weighs just 3.2 pounds and requires little assembly with just 2 steps. It operates off a reliable, 1.8-amp HP motor, which spins the line at 11,000 rpm. This grass trimmer features a basic bump feed line system, a generous nine-inch cutting path, and a secondary assist handle for added comfort and control. It comes with 20 feet of .065-diameter line, and spool replacement is fairly simple. One thing I found especially handy with this particular trimmer was its unique cord lock system, which holds the extension cord firmly in place while the trimmer is in use. As someone who has accidentally unplugged a trimmer halfway through a job on more than one occasion, this indeed a handy feature to have. This product is backed by a 2-year full warranty. --Carl Thress

Ideal for smaller yards or light-duty trimming jobs, as well as post-mowing maintenance, this electric grass trimmer from Black & Decker cuts a nine-inch path and weighs under four pounds so it's easy to handle and control. The ST1000 owes its reliable performance to a 1.8 Amp motor that operates at 11,000 RPM. A bump feed spool allows feeding of the line as needed (it's a snap to replace the spool), and a convenient cord retention system guards against unintended unplugging while you're working. The ST1000 includes 20 feet of .065-diameter line, a secondary assist handle, and a 2-year warranty. For added convenience, it also comes ready to assemble in just two straightforward steps.

Good for the price:
For $20 you can't go wrong. Doesn't work well for deep edging, but for light trimming and edging its good for the price
Unbeatable Price, effective tool:
This tool works very well. And at this price, it is a no brainer. I use this on my St. Augustine grass and it cuts it close. I love the bump feature to release more string. It is also very light and quiet. Just buy an appropriate extension cord and you are good to go. Nothing to charge and it does not use gas, so it does no pollute.
Perfect:
This little trimmer is perfect for me. Its light weight and is easy to use.
Black & Decker Weed Wacker:
Product arrived on time. Glad we found it on Amazon as the stores aren't carrying it this year.
