Battery failed in about a year
By April on Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2021
I really like this trimmer. It's light enough that I don't wear our my shoulder trimming the yard, but powerful enough that it can handle the work. The battery held enough charge that I could do the entirety of the trimming in one pass. *** Update*** Black and Decker is replacing the trimmer and battery. Very great service. No hassle at all. After a year and one month of owning, and being used maybe 15 times, the battery was completely dead when I took it off the charge station. I put it back on, and the indicator light began flashing red rapidly. The internet told me that this is a sign of a bad battery. I tried a couple of 'reset fixes' but nothing worked. A new battery is almost as expensive as getting a whole new trimmer. I'm going to check for a warranty, or something, but still disappointed.

No solution to a simple problem
By lovelife on Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2018
I purchased this machine about a year ago, and at first it seemed to work fine. Fine, that is, until this “weed eater” actually encountered a weed, and then it stopped working. I unwrapped the long stem from the weed and tried the unit...it did not work. Thinking that the battery needed to be charged, I called it a day and thought that I should recharge the battery. The next day, I tried to start the machine with the recharged battery, but still no luck. I thought that maybe some other grass/weed was still in the machine, so I had a look. There is no way to disassemble this machine, no owners manual with instructions, no YouTube video. I went online to see what other people had done, and to my dismay found that this was the stage where a) you had to take this to a repair center and pay the equivalent price of the machine to get it fixed, b) learned from another person’s review that he had been an electrical mechanic and even he could find no info on how to take the bottom shaft off to fix the same problem, and c) the Black and Decker “find a repair shop near you” link gives you places that don’t repair lawn equipment. I think this might be the last Black and Decker that I shall waste my money on. I am really disappointed, as previous older models were more user friendly. Save your $200! This should have been a straightforward taking off the sheild to take out debris/align the machine head. The pictures show the skewed (unremoveable) trimmer head.
