I love how lightweight and easy it is to use this trimmer. The battery life is very good. It is noticeably heavier than my older earthwise 18 v 12 cut trimmer although it is only 10 1/4 cut.

Works great battery life is not bad great product

I used this with a 4ah battery and it does a very good job.


Battery life with a 4ah battery is very good, i'm guessing 1hr.


I probably will have to buy more powerful makita batteries.

    It does not cut through heavy grass well so if you keep up on your trimming you’ll do fine

    They never work properly so i bought an after market holder

    The locking collar on the shaft doesnt tighten enough causing the head to rotate while operating

    I returned it and the replacement trimmer does the exact same thing
