Makita's 18v Line Trimmer takes the hassle out of doing the lawn. It is easy to use and only requires a single battery to get going. The battery capacity warning lamp will blink red when the battery is getting low and change to a solid red when it needs recharged. The adjustable loop-handle can be adjusted according to user's height and working posture so it is comfortable to use. An adjustable cutting 5-position pivoting head enables the user to adjust the cutting angle, allowing for trimming in tight places such as under bushes and low items. The telescopic shaft is adjustable in length from 1, 150mm to 1, 330mm. The bump and feed cord system is a single-corded type. The nylon cord can be fed from the spool by bumping the bump feed button against the ground. This should be done when the revs are high. The spool assembly is easy to attach & remove and easy to rewind and is equipped with a metal bump feed button for wear resistance.

Terrible product. Don't make the same mistake I did. You're better off using a butter knife. Power output is atrocious. Spend your money elsewhere.No idea where all these five star reviews are coming from, truly horrendous product.

I have ozito cordless tools but didn’t like their whipper snipper options (and wanted one with a cord). Chose this one and very happy with it. I got it to mostly do lawn edging, on paths and against walls/fences and did a great job. I liked being able to quickly adjust the head positioning to suit the task. I had to pull out more cord three times over 45min/600m2 of yard work. I am okay with this given some bump heads are prone to breaking. Will be getting better cord once I work through the one it comes with. Only used one bar of battery after doing said yard work.

Got it and used it today to mow my two small gardens. Unboxing and assembly was easy. Battery charged very quickly to full in about an hour and it was ready to go. To my surprise gave me about an hour of running time and it still had more than 25% juice left. Good, solid build.I am an absolute beginner at this and trimming and lining itself went alright.Product spec says it doesn't include a shoulder strap but it was in there which was a nice bonus. Really helped maneuvering the thing around and was easy on the back. Also comes with some extra string. Doesn't come with a wheel but and I didn't feel like I needed it. Also suggest buying boots and goggles with it for safety.Highly recommended.

I was tossing between a 2 stroke petrol trimmer and this one. The trimmer is very easy to use and comes with a 3.0ah Battery and Charger. My suburban size garden was overgrown and took 3 battery charges to complete. I personally would prefer this trimmer to come with a larger 5.0/6.0ah Battery so i know i can complete the job in one go. I like it, but probably would have been better off with a petrol trimmer in terms of performance or a more superior model.
A great price for a line trimmer from such a top brand name. Have used it several times, once in testing conditions. Didn’t miss a beat. Battery lasts beyond needs. Recommend strongly.
When it comes to lawn, I have recently moved to somewhere that has a lot of it! And wanted to buy a whipper snipper that was within an affordable range. I was a little sceptical that this would do the large job I had to cover, but I am impressed!I have never had to use a whipper snipper before, and this one is so lightweight and powerful. The battery was barely used through after a good 1hour or more use - covering a fairly large area! My only reason for 4 stars over 5, is the issue that I hear is common with whipper snippers - that is, the spool not always coming out when it's supposed to, but it could just be user error! It also comes with a decent amount of it too! I'm also not a fan of the safety trigger, it gets a little awkward after long use, but it's not a ... MoreWhen it comes to lawn, I have recently moved to somewhere that has a lot of it!

Not that it should be counted as anything, but I am a woman.
This would have to be the best line trimmer that I've ever owned and i have owned several over the years. It is light and easy to use and handled the normal grass that the mower misses around the lawn edges with ease. It is fairly quiet to use, not like a two stroke petrol model.and being battery operated it is always ready for those jobs that one tends to put off doing. And best of all, I did not get covered with weed splatter all over my trousers, yippee. Totally a very good unit by a quality manufacturer, i would recommend it to anyone with an average sized garden lawn.
Bought this around 3 weeks ago. Very powerful. Really good battery life. Light weight. The only problem is the line that comes with it. It’s very weak. Also the spool feeding is pretty annoying. Every 2 minutes have to manually pull the line out. Also putting new line in is a bit difficult. You kinda get used to it but it’s still annoying. But if you have a small front and back yard this will do the job. Much better than some of the more expensive brands.
Hey! Lovely service, and procedures during the lockdown click and collect options, handled very nicely and calmly although they were super busy. This electric line trimmer has made my birthday! I LOVE IT! the battery life is a bit shorter than i thought, but it's still so good and cuts the grass like a dream, also fast recharge and just generally a good product :) can attach other parts to it like a hedge trimmer and just really happy with the service and product :) 5 gold stars!!!!
It’s very power full for an electric trimmer. It’s a bout the middle of the road product in there line trimmers. But I did our garden and our Nieghbour’s garden. Fast and easy. Even with the grass very high as it was not than for a year. There was no problem. Plus the battery was already fully charged up. So I did not had to wait to do the jobs at hand. And there was still plenty of battery power left after doing two garden’s. So good product for you money
