Great trimmer and powerfull

I am so impressed with this trimmer. My yard is 20,000 sq. ft., I trim and edge everything on one battery with power to spare. I have owned a number of gas trimmer and end up never using them because they are heavy and you get covered in grass. This trimmer goes through everything and I stay nice and clean. I do not know how B&D did it, but this is the best trimmer I have ever had. The only thing I would add is a wheel for when you use it for edging.

Super Trimmer

Who could ask for anything more? Great battery life, powerful cutting power - with 2 batteries, to boot! This trimmer does a fine job. And the batteries can be used in other Black & Decker 18 volt cordless devices.

Totally Satisfied

I use this trimmer on a 10000 sq.ft. yard and it works great. Usually need two fully charged batteries and I'm done. It took almost the whole summer for the original spool of .065 line to finally run out. Never had a single hang up or tangle. The auto feed is amazing compared to other string trimmers. An important point to remember about batteries like these; store them in fairly cool rooms and recharge two of them the night before you use them. Took 3 cents worth of electricity over 20 hours trickle charge. In the service I stored batteries for electronic equipment in a little refrigerator to extend their life. Keep them charged regularly over the winter also and they'll last many years.

Light weight but does the job super well

I love my new trimmer - the battery goes and goes and does a superlative job. I have a torn rotator cuff and can't lift heavy products. I just love this, not to heavy and does a really good job of trimming. Excellent item, no bumping for the cord to come out. Buy one, you won't be sorry.

B&D Grass Hog

Works great for a battery operated tool. It has more power than I expected it to have. I also was VERY PLEASED that it came with 2 batteries!
I'd buy this item again in a heartbeat and have already recommended it to others.

Won't run my Playstation 3

Powers most of the things that I want to Except my Play station 3 I replaced an old inverter I bought from Home Depot with this new one. I was disappointed to find that this Cobra unit will not power my Play Station 3. My old inverter would power my X-box 360 just fine. So my loss I guess. I installed this Cobra unit into my Motor home and then was gone for a month before trying it with my Play Station. I guess that Play Stations require a better and smoother power source. The play station plays great with the generator in the Motor home. So I use the unit to charge my laptop and phone, TV works good with it. I am thinking about buying a better Inverter but really haven't needed to use it for game playing.

useful and a good value

This unit replaces the need for car adapters. I have used it for my netbook, to charge my ipod, to power my portable CD with its ac adapter to save batteries. The Cobra inverter makes it so you have the ac convenience of home in your car. I would not want to be without it.

Work well

We used it for inflating air mattress during camping trips. It has worked well on our first trip. I'm pretty happy with it so far. The down side is it is a bit bulky and I also wish it comes with a case for storing it so the connector won't get bent.

very fine inverter

i dont have a cig liter in car... Use battery cables...get perfect charge evrytime. No noise. Costs $40 less than any 400W in this area. No problems, 5 stars.

Just what I needed

I bought this to use during camping trips. I have an air mattress with a built-in 200w air compressor, so I figured this would be perfect to inflate that. I was pleasantly surprised by the compact size of the unit, which made it very easy to pack up for the trip. The inverter includes both a cigarette lighter adapter (for 150w and below) and alligator clips (greater than 150w). I just hooked up the alligator clips and attached them to my car battery...and instant power! It was super easy and worked great. Definitely happy with this purchase and look forward to using it again in the future.

Not Sure

I have to say I really liked the reviews of this product, but maybe I did not read well enough. We bought this for my son who was heading to Costa Rica on a mission trip. Wanting to stay as natural as possible this looked like a great alternative. When it arrived I sprayed a little on myself to see how it smelled. It is REALLY strong and not sure I could use it myself, but he might. I can't say if it worked or not as he ended up not needing to use anything while there so will have to wait to see. I am willing to look at any natural solution to bug control so I am sure I will try this out some way somehow, but I have asthma and extrememly sensative to odors. That said, this will not be on my skin or anywhere close to my nose.

Seems to work, the two times I used it. I purchased two bottles and the pumps don't always spray. You have to stop for a few seconds and then start again and it might spray a little.

Not effective

If there was a zero star category, this product would receive it from me. First time out with this spray found it totally ineffective...not even the smallest deterent. Based on my experience, it is a complete waste of money and to get a refund you must subtract out the shipping. I would advise using another product if mosquito bites are an issue for you,

"THE BEST"

I have Four (4) Blower/ Vac's including electric and gas operated and this is by far the one. Light weight, small in size and easy to handle, and very powerful. I would recommend this to anyone for a good solid unit.

Incredible Product for the Money

I was looking for a blower/vac under $100 that could be used to clean walkways, my driveway, and other areas of my yeard. The unit has performed very well. I would equate the vacuum feature to the power of a mid-sized shop vac. You need to get the vacuum pretty close to the debri to pick it up. The mulcher is incredible, I picked up a lot of leaves, sticks, etc, and was amazed that I had only filled half of the pouch.

The mulcher is pretty powerful - I picked up twigs, plants that I had just weed whacked, etc.

The blower is OK - not as powerful as comparable gas blowers. It is under powered for blowing leaves that are in the grass/a little wet. I really see this as better yard vacuum than it is a blower.

A few small areas for improvement.
- I am 6ft 1in tall and the vacuum started to hurt my back as I had to bend over a bit to get to debri - it would be cool if the handle had some kind of extension for people of different heights
- More powerful blower

To sum it up - I can't imagine a better or more versatile yard cleaning product for under $100.

Works as it says

I love my Worx Vac. After having it for about five months already, I have dropped it several times and it is very durable. It's also very easy to use, versatable and lightweight. I only wish it had a flat bottom surface to sit it down on. you just have to lay it on it's back. But this is a very minor issue for me. I would highly recommend it.

gets the job done.

Gets the job done, but ear plugs are needed. Protect your hearing when using all equipment. Mulches well, vacuums if you get close and blows well.

Cut my clean-up time by 75%

Quality is first rate and it works as advertised. Ultra simple to assemble and use. The shoulder bag is adequate and I purchased the optional accessory for discharging mulch directly into a trash can. Love it. The machine is quite light but a bag full of debris soon changes that. Thus the shoulder strap.The strap is ungainly; at least it is for me. I use it only because it came with the machine. It's adjustable but I don't like it. It gets in the way of the power cord somewhat and if you need to change hands you have to contend with the strap.
I've found I have some tight spaces and wish I could swivel the vacuum tube to reach into the gutter between my patio and fence, around bushes and navigating flower beds. The vacuum is strong if you can get close to the debris. The plastic impeller concerned me when I saw it but it has held up to small pine cones and dry twigs and branches without slowing down. It seems to pick up the trash and leave heavier impeller killing stuff behind. I find myself grabbing hold of the bag to manipulate the machine in other than ground level areas.
Would I recommend this unit to family and friends? All they have to do is watch it for a few minutes and it recommends itself. I have zero buyers remorse.

Just bought as spare

I hate to get stuck when doing some work, just because some part goes wonky, so I tend to buy spares and squirrel them away in the garage for when I'll need them later.
That's what I did with this part.
My experience with Black and Decker has been that they make decent items, but are always changing, shapes/specs/colors of the equipment to increase sales. As a result, you can have a perfectly good piece of equipment, but can't use it, because one little piece is no longer available after a few years when the model has been "updated".
For example, I bought one of their cordless mowers more than 10 years ago and got an extra blade at the time. Good thing I did that, as B&D no longer supplies replacement blades for this mower. Ditto, for the grass catcher for this mower, which they no longer have parts for ...they'd rather sell you one of their new and improved models for hundreds of dollars than sell you a $15 grass catcher.
