BLUE RIDGE 18V Cordless Grass Trimmer BR8151 with 25cm Cutting Width, 2.0 Ah Battery & Charger, 1x3m Cutting line Telescopic alum. Shaft, Edge Wheel

Wow!, love my new cordless strimmer, I never want an electric one ever again. It was not cheap but so far its been well worth the money. My husband put the guard on it for me and extended it as im not great at assembly or instructions but he had it sorted in a few minutes. charging the battery takes a good few hours but this is very simple. Using the strimmer is so easy, just clip on the battery and off you go, so much quicker without a cord to worry about, the machine is not as noisy as most strimmers, something else I really like, its nice and light and great for ladies especially, I think to the menfolk this strimmer would be like a toy. Lasts quite well and does several patches of grass I have, I find that I can strim more often with the cordless as you are not worried about it being wet, strimming is less stressful now and a lot quicker. Just remember to charge the battery well each time then its ready for the next time.

This is very easy to use, even on long grass. It's made my lawn look better around the edges and helped me to deal with long grass on a steep bank that previously took me ages to cut. Also very good around clumps of daffodils. Battery takes a long time to recharge, but I have another Blue Ridge product and the batteries are interchangeable. Therefore no problem. Fully recommend.

I bought the Blue Ridge cordless grass trimmer primarily for grass edging in my garden. Having used it for that purpose I found it light, easy to use having the wheels to negotiate the edges. For my use as a edger it has been utilised twice on both my front and rear grass on one charge (probably manage at least one more time on both). Charging the battery took 5 hours as per instructions. Set up was easy as per instructions provided. Have not used it as a strimmer yet but I think that there would be a limit to the thickness of grass you could strim (I use a petrol strimmer in my job a a landscape gardener and that gives me a good gauge for its capabilities). That said, I'm very impressed with the tool and would recommend as an edger or for light strimming in the garden environment.

I initially bought this after accidentally cutting through the cord on my Flymo (again) with the idea that I could whip this over my grass and keep it in trim just like I saw our gardener do when we had one for five minutes. My garden is kind of a lumpy slope with very few actually flat bits so the Flymo was ideal.Anyway, I used this once for a full trim but it isn't quite at the level of my (ex) gardener's petrol version and proved to be fairly laborious work. However, it is brilliant for all the edging and awkward bits (such as the particularly hardy clumps that seem to grow by the legs of the trampoline). But best of all, it does an amazing job of removing the weeds that grow between the paving slabs and up the side of the driveway. Discovering this was truly a revelation. No more hacking away between slabs hating life, just whizz this beauty over and job done.I've had it two years now and I'm onto the second coil of wire that it came supplied with. I'm hoping I'll get one more summer before I have to buy more. The battery life is pretty decent. I can easily cover the front and back (grass edging and weeds) on a single charge. It takes a while to fully recharge but that's fine by me.If you got this far, well done. Your reward is my recommendation to buy this. It's great - well made and still going strong after two summers of weed bashing.Oh and I fixed the Flymo with some electric tape and tie wraps (again).

My old B&D corded strimmer gave up - I was a bit wary about replacing it with a cordless one as I thought it wouldn't be up to the job. No problems there, I think this one is actually more powerful than the old one. It's also lighter and more comfortable to use.No problems assembling it (screw in one screw) and it's easy to adjust in length and from horizontal for strimming to vertical for edging. The line feed system seems to work without problems.Haven't run the battery down yet so I can't say how long it lasts but it takes a long time to charge - maybe 6 hours. Best to keep it charged up for when you want to use it.Very pleased with it so far.

Great trimmer, I bought this mainly from the reviews and especially on the fact that it is lightweight which it is. I charged the battery for several hours and got more than 30 min use out of it (which is what reviews stated) well it actually didn’t run out. The downside is that it is not the most comfortable as it could do with being a bit longer. I am 5ft5 ( female) and at its longest I was still bending a bit. So far it has cut well and I am sure it could go better as I get more used to using it.Been cordless is a big bonus another reason for buying it . So I do recommend it.

Ok and lot easier than running a cable outside ,but charge doesn’t last that long 20 mins too.

The strimmer has many adjustment for length, cutting head angle and a wheel when used as an edge trimmer. Lightweight unlike my petrol driven equivalent so less tiring to use.Definitely worth getting, especially if you have other Blue Ridge kit as the batterys are interchangeable.
