Pros: Light weight, easy to use, no gas to mix

The Bottom Line: If you do not have a large yard this is a very good trimmer.

| alehouse's Full Review: Black & Decker 12" Cordless Trimmer / Edger Cst200... |
I needed something to trim and edge my yard. I searched reviews on this site about different trimmers and finally purchased the Black & Decker. Years ago when I still lived with my mother we had an electric trimmer. I hated pulling out the extension cord and putting it away. I have also owned a two stroke blower and was not fond of mixing the gas. So I was alway leaning to the rechargeable trimmers.
Assembly was very quick, the only downer was I had to wait hours for it to charge for the first time. I was ready to play with the new toy. The next day it was charged and ready to go. I was concerned about battery life, because others complained it died before they completed the job and I had not trimmed the lawn in months. So the first time for the trimmer was going to be a big job. I trimmed the back and front yards with out any problems. Both yards only took me about 30 minutes though. My lot is only one third of an acre, so I don't know how it would do if you had a big lot. I have been using it for about 6 months now and have started charging the trimmer every other time I use it.
One thing I really like is the ability to turn the cutting end. This allows for ease of edging the lawn.
