Works as advertised. No complaints.

Powerful tool. I have a quarter acre lot with a lot of surfaces to edge, still had 3/4 battery life after finishing. Guess I need to get the blower next

I have had this for three weeks and used it twice mostly to trim Asiatic Jasmine ground cover, a tough vegetation. The trimmer handles this duty with ease as it quite powerful but quiet at the same time. It is easy to use, balanced well (not light, though) especially good with the optional shoulder strap. The battery did not need a charge after both uses (approx 30 minutes each) but I charged it anyway in about 30 or 40 minutes. Another plus is a convenient mounting hole on the back to receive a mounting screw. I will likely purchase the attaching hedge trimmer later. I recommend the M18 trimmer.

JUST WISH IT SHIPPED WITH SMALL BOTTLE OF CHAIN OIL AND HEDGE TRIMMER LIGHT WEIGHT OIL. The pictures say it all. What is used to look like. To what it looks like after my new Milwaukee edger got a hold of it. Still have not tried the string trimmer, pole saw or the hedge trimmers. Do to, now having too go back to the store to buy some. I ordered this set online. Not thinking about needing oils. Being most items in the past have come with a starter bottle. I did purchase the blower separately and that was Nice and Light. I did also purchase a hight output 3.0 ahu extra battery as a back up. And to use with the pole saw.

Had to purchase separate shoulder strap – not a big deal but should have been included for the price

1st I’m a pro lawn guy. I use echo weedeaters and although they are tough they are finiky- carburators, fuel and air filters, oil to gas ratios jeez Louise I have more important things to do. This Milwaukee trimmer has really simplified my operation. Battery life is decent but I always have another on the charger in my truck. It’s powerful and make short work of edging and weed whacking. I really like that the drive motor is not on the head of the trimmer and that once I pull the trigger there is no lag in operation. They are a bit pricey but I plan on introducing another one into my business this coming season. You guys and gals who do your own lawn- buy it,to the pros out there you can’t go wrong- buy an additional battery.

Ergonomics leave me wanting for a 5′ 7″ person, but it works well and lasts fairly long. Definitely would need multiple batteries if doing a large yard or thick weeds/brush.

Very powerful and crisp motor operation.

Gift to my mom she loves it
Mathilde Frami (verified owner) –
Battery lasts at least an hour with heavy use of string trimmer. Pole saw attachment also works great. Another great product from big red.

The weed eater is operating great the 3 times I have used it. It is strong and easy to handle.
Hazle Crona (verified owner) –
a lot of power – cut through my overgrown yard with ease.
Shannon Larson (verified owner) –
Cuts the grass and weeds well even on low speed and a charged battery will take care of what I need to do before it is discharged fully. The battery will last for more than 400 linear feet trimming under electric fences and around planters.
Roxanne Dicki (verified owner) –
It’s insane how well this trimmer works. With the included 8 AH battery in the kit I get all the trimming done around my 2 acre property. I use it on both high or low speed as I want. It also lasts a long time using the batteries from my tools.
Robert Beier (verified owner) –
Very good power but the battery dies faster. Maybe include a better battery with the pack!!!!
Brett Murray (verified owner) –
This Beasty monster is flat out better than a gas string trimmer with little to no maintenance and is ultra powerful and the battery last very long i was cutting over an hour with a 9.0ah HD im crazy about this quick lock system im so happy i chose it over the other brands and purchased all of the attachments that it comes with and that articulating arm hedge trimmer is unbelievably made supremely constructed and beautiful to look at with percision sharp teeth, HURRY UP AND GO PURCHASE ONE, STOP PLAYING!

The trimmer was easy to assemble and it works great!

Very nice tool, it definitely beats constantly messing with the gas powered trimmer. The ability to swap out the edger is great too.
