Works Fine September 1, 2008
Works fine for what it is. I have a lot edging on my property and can get it all done with two batteries. This includes doing more than the "maintenance edging" that the manual states this unit is designed for. Next spring I will have to use a real edger and then I imagine the Grass Hog will handle the maintenance edging for another year. The line feed has worked flawlessly. Very happy with the Grass Hog.
Good trimmer August 31, 2008
We have been using this trimmer for about six weeks now and it has worked fine. The charge lasts long enough to deal with our roughly one half acre yard. I would not want to try and use it on heavy grass or bigger weeds as the line is kind of wimpy, but for use around the house trimming grass it has served our needs.

A very nice light weight weedwacker. Cordless design works well for me because my yard is spread out. Having two chargeable batteries means you can always switch to the backup if your battery runs low. Auto string feed is also very handy. Overall an excellent choice.
GRASS HOG GOOD August 26, 2008
This is the second summer I'm using my grass hog. If you understand it's limits - it is an outstanding product. It is not powerful. It won't cut heavy brush or branches. Battery life is about 15-20 minutes. I suggest buying an extra charger so two batteries are always charged. My home is on a corner lot and it takes both batteries to do the trimming.
I am very happy to have the grass hog. Not having to drag a cord around more than compensates for its low power. It is reliable and starts easily. It is lightweight and is suitable for somebody that is elderly. You can buy spools of string or put your own on an empty spool. Note - it goes through sting rather quickly, especially in the edging mode. The grass hog is an ideal tool for the person with a small yard or with mostly grass to trim. It has made it much easier to take care of my yard since I've bought it. I would buy the grass hog again.
Great for average homeowner August 18, 2008

I purchased this for keeping the grass around my house and fence trimmed and am very satisfied. Granted, the batteries don't hold up to lots of heavy trimming, but for a normal trim (which for me is grass and some weeds around the entire house plus both sides of about 320ft of fencing) the 2 batteries are just enough when fully charged. It can definitely handle much thicker weeds and such, but don't expect the batteries to last too long under those circumstances. So I think the recommendation really comes down to your use. If you're just using it to keep the grass and small weeds around the house neatly trimmed, you'll be very satisfied. If you're hacking through the jungle, you'll definitely want to look at more traditional solutions.
