Amazon.com Product Description
Every home lawn enthusiast needs a reliable trimmer. When it comes to performance in the front or back yard, the Grass Hog 14-inch automatic feed string trimmer and edger provides what you need. This tool is powered by a 4.8 Amp electric motor that spins the line at 9,500 rpm and gives you a 14-inch cutting swath. An Automatic Feed Spool (AFS) system eliminates the need to bump the trimmer against the ground every time the line breaks. And the 30-foot, factory-wound spool is easy to install and replace. Head adjustment is quick and easy, too, when the Groom'N'Edge head rotates 180 degrees; just press the button, rotate the handle and wait for it to lock in place. The patented cord retention system helps prevent accidental unplugging while in use. This trimmer comes equipped with an auxiliary handle for added comfort and control. The handle rotates a full 360 degrees and the soft grip can be moved up and down to ensure the perfect fit, whatever size the operator may be. A flip-down edge guide ensures precise trimming and edging work. At just 5.2 pounds, this product is easy for just about anyone to use. This product is backed by a 2-year full warranty. --Carl Thress

Amazon.com Product Description
A broad 14-inch cutting swath and a powerful five Amp electric motor help the Black & Decker Grass Hog GH600 Electric String Trimmer and Edger make edging, trimming, and weed eating easy tasks to handle. It features a Groom'N'Edge head that can be rotated 180-degrees for quick switches between cutting and edging tasks along with Black & Decker's Automatic Feed Spool (AFS) system, which uses centrifugal force to dispense more line whenever you need it for added predictability and dependability--no bumping required. Also offering the simplicity of electric startups and weighing in at just 5.2 pounds, it's a machine that is incredibly easy to handle, and you won't have to contend with the strain that repeated pull starts and heavier tools can put on your body. Other convenient design elements include a flip-down edge guide, four-position height adjustment, and an adjustable auxiliary handle for a customizable experience and improved comfort. Corded power means work is never brought to a standstill by a dead battery or an empty gas tank, and a patented cord-lock system prevents accidental extension cord disconnections while you work. This tool is backed by a limited 2-year warranty.

THIS IS AN EXCELLENT TOOL THAT DOES THE JOB. IT COVERS A FAIRLY LARGE AREA, SO THE WORK TIME IS CUT DOWN. AS WITH ALL WEED WHACKERS, YOU HAVE TO WEAR GOGGLES OR EVENTUALLY YOU WILL HAVE AN EYE INJURY.


5 out of 5 stars So far so good   July 23, 2010

Received the trimmer in good shape, although it was delivered to the wrong house (UPS's fault). Used it twice so far and it works great!


2 out of 5 stars Incorrect Item Pictured   July 16, 2010

I owned the string trimmer pictured. After six seasons the trimmer wore out so I went to replace it based on the image. Unfortunately the GH600 I received is a CHEAPER quality plastic, no soft grips as shown and no lever lock to prevent cord disconnection. The shaft is also a silver color. The first time I used it, the auto feed stopped working and the cord disconnected several times. I've written to Amazon about the incorrect product image but the site was never updated.

This item is another example of a company placing what used to be a good brand on an inferior product.

Very easy to use and operates well. I cannot fault the product but maybe the only thing I would add is that if you are using it for any length of time, your arms begin to ache due to the way the machine has to be held. However, it is efficient and easy to use and I'm loving decimating weeds! Replacing the spool is also extremely easy. We have no hesitation in recommending the Black and Decker Grass Hog to anybody.
