- If you're in the market for a basic, entry-level electric trimmer to handle light trimming work around your house, the Black and Decker 9-inch grass trimmer might be worth considering. While certainly not as powerful or feature-laden as more costly models, this trimmer can handle much of the light-duty work many homeowners need. The trimmer weighs just 3.2 pounds and requires little assembly with just 2 steps. It operates off a reliable, 1.8-amp HP motor, which spins the line at 11,000 rpm. This grass trimmer features a basic bump feed line system, a generous nine-inch cutting path, and a secondary assist handle for added comfort and control. It comes with 20 feet of .065-diameter line, and spool replacement is fairly simple. One thing I found especially handy with this particular trimmer was its unique cord lock system, which holds the extension cord firmly in place while the trimmer is in use. As someone who has accidentally unplugged a trimmer halfway through a job on more than one occasion, this indeed a handy feature to have. This product is backed by a 2-year full warranty. --Carl Thress

- I HAVE A VERY SMALL YARD AND THIS WORKS QUITE WELL FOR ME. VERY BASIC AND LIGHT WEIGHT
- I love the small trimmer for my yard and the price is just great! When I wear one out I simply buy another for this price! Product works great!
- I love this. It is light to handle and does the job at a great price.
- 4 1/2 It's Not the Size of the Blade; It's How You Use It
- This small, light weight trimming/edging tool cuts in 9-inch swathes at a time. Because of its size, it is more controllable than the larger (12" - 14") trimmers.
The larger, more powerful trimmers are not suitable for many lawns. I took back one because of its imprecise cutting. The powerful motor resulted in the shredding of a wood edging that separates the lawn from an adjacent mulched area.
One problem with all trimmers is that there is nothing to catch the flying bits of lawn. The only thing that might help in the future is to lay a sheet over the mulched area adjacent to the lawn to catch the cuttings, and move the sheet as I go along. Perhaps this should come with a sheet? Again, the smaller, less powerful machine's precision reduces excess trimmings. This is also a less noisy machine and is easier to store than the more powerful trimmers.
Features include a trimming option so that you can trim lawn under protruding bushes or around rocks, etc. There's also a locking feature for the electric cord. YOu do need to occasionally "bump" the machine (literally lighting hitting it against the lawn) to advance the cutting wire, this takes a little practice to get right. However, the learning curve is fast, after a few outings I thought this was a useful machine and money well spent.
- Only having a small area that needed to be trimmed I opted for this model and was very pleased with it. Light weight so was easy to manage and did a good job for what I needed.
- Unbeatable for price and ease of operation!
- Very pleasantly surprised by the reliability of this model. I have used a different brand, similar construction and price, an electric and a gas-powered trimmer. And this less-expensive B&D model is by far the least troublesome. In fact, I only had to rewind the spool one time and after that it fed nicely until it was only about 14 inches left. I'm not very dextrous at 'bumping', to eject more string, so I simply swing the head up, depressed the spring and pull out a little when it's needed. There seemed to be no lack of power to cut through some very tough weeds and stems. For the price, I don't know how a person could do better than this model trimmer. And because of its light weight, it's actually fun to use. Being so small, it can get into tight places, really neat'n them up. It's so light, you can control it with one arm, and also, you can easily turn it sideways to trim vertically, whacking off weeds growing through a chain-link fence from your neighbor's yard!
- Great and lightweight! I bought this on sale at my local hardware store and love it. My ex keeps borrowing it so I am buying another to give as a present. Cuts great, easy line replace, quiet and takes up little room in the garage. I have owned serveral other brands (all of which have been trashed or given away) This one is a keeper. Great price!
- Good, Light-Weight Trimmer
- I have used this trimmer several times in the three months I've had it and am very pleased with it's performance. It works well, is extremely light-weight and reasonably priced. I have a back problem and needed a trimmer that wouldn't put any strain on my back and this trimmer fit the bill.
- I bought this trimmer because I recently had surgery on my elbow and had trouble using my heavier weed eater. I love this product I can use it one handed and I have no trouble with it hurting my arm!
- Perfect for a small patio
- I have a small patio and don't need a lot of machine. The other reviews that I read on here helped me with the purchase. It is perfect if you don't want to do a major job.

- I had ordered, received this product few days ago. I bought this because it has 5 stars. The real product doesn't look like that at all. I received a black one, looks like something I bought from $0.99 store. Doesn't show quality like it shown tn the pictures. This is the biggest dissapointment I've ever had since I shopped online. The product that I received has a very low quality product. It looks like it has been used. My husband already asked me to returned and refund the money, but I gave it a 2nd chance. I've received the replacement, it's the same thing. There is no cord or anything to charge the trimmer. It didn't say I have to provide other part, I thought it's all in the box. I was totally wrong about this product. I wonder why those people could rate this product 5 stars. I don't want say negative or bad things on this review but I want to let people know so they don't have to feel like I feel.

- Although it takes some practice to get the result you want, the price is right and it does the job. Also suitable for small patches of grass.

- I HAVE A VERY SMALL YARD AND THIS WORKS QUITE WELL FOR ME. VERY BASIC AND LIGHT WEIGHT
- (Note: the trimmer is actually black in color)
For a small trimmer, it does the job better than expected. I have a lot of yard to trim and was able to easily trim the edges of the entire perimeter and nearly trimmed the entire lawn too, it now looks like I recently mowed.
Lightweight and easy to handle.
*Get a long sturdy cord to use (it's not included) and make sure to loop it through the hole in the end - which the instructions mention - so your cord doesn't pop out. **This is NOT a rechargeable, cordless trimmer.
For the low price, it's a great deal, particularly if you have smaller yard and don't want a big gas trimmer. It's cheap enough to be disposable!
