    Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - toro cordless trimmer
    I have owned the the oordless trimmer before the old one was way better. this one is lighter but the thing sounds like it is running at a hundred miles and it is loud. its too short also. my old one lasted about three years before the wiring to the motor broke and couldn't fix it so lets hope this one can. i am a fan of toro so hope this last a long time.

    This item works GREAT!!! I use it weekly and it's as light as a feather too.



    Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - toro cordless
    I ignored the reviews and bought this trimmer, the price was hard to ignore and if it turned out to be a mistake I would try to return it or just junk it.

    After a month this has performed like a charm. Plenty of power, battery lasts at least 30 minutes and the small foot print is not an issue for me. I cut the big areas with my lawn-mower.

    It is essential for the handle to be seated properly or else you will not get full power, just a tip when you snap things together upon assembly.

    Replacing the string is easy, but it in bulk and wind it yourself, not difficult at all.

    I have trashed by gas powered trimmer since this little guy does all I need it to do.

    Good performance for a low price. BTW you can use a stronger thicker line with it if you desire.



    Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Toro vs. Black & Decker
    The Toro cordless trimmer has plenty of power--even after 45 minutes of use. I also own the Black & Decker 18 volt cordless trimmer with 2 removable batteries. The Black and Decker loses its power in less than 20 minutes--sometimes 15.

    I store the Toro unplugged, and it holds its charge for over 6 weeks. Try that with the Black & Decker 18 volt cordless trimmer. The Black and Decker loses most of its power in less than 2 weeks.

    The Toro doesn't always win over the Black & Decker, however. The B&D is superior for trimming grass along a sidewalk. It's also more ergonomic and weighs much less. I do, however, get tired of replacing the batteries every 15 minutes and having to recharge 2 batteries after every use.

    Overall, the Toro is a great value for the money. It is a little heavy, but that's due to the large battery. If you have extremely light trimming to do, especially along a sidewalk, definitely get the Black & Decker 18 volt cordless trimmer. If you have lots of trimming to do and can deal with the extra weight, definitely get the Toro. It runs longer, stronger, and, depending on how long you use it, you don't have to recharge it after every use.



    Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - OK for small yards
    I purchased this trimmer to replace an old cordless Toro that finally gave out after 10 years. This trimmer is a big improvement over the old by being lighter in weight and well balanced. I'm disappointed by the short operating time and by the long recharge time. Even with a relatively small yard it loses power before I'm done with the whole yard, and the recharge time is long, about 24 hours. The cutting swath is very small but it works fine for trimming grass the lawn mower misses, especially around trees, fences, and foundations.

    Usually we're fans of Logitech's gaming mice, but its highest-end G9 Laser Mouse is expensive, overly complex, and lacks the ergonomic thought we've come to expect. If you like to brag about dot-per-inch limits, perhaps the G9's 3,200dpi laser will be enough to sell you, but for the price, we expect the design to match.

    While compact and convenient, Panasonic's SD-based SDR-S150 camcorder doesn't make the quality cut.
