      I just bought the one for $299. After using it on my tall grass, the only complaints I have is it doesn't last long, so I will have to buy another battery. If you have more than 1 hour to do the job, get a second battery. If your to aggressive with cutting the long grass / weeds, the grass get stuck in the head, where I have to clear it when it slows down.😒

Thank you for showing the power and run time of this trimmer. I will never go back to gas now !! Even my girlfriend(wife soon) loves using it. best part is I don't have to start engine for her !

    Bought one of these and wow, is it powerful! I had to get a more protective guard for the business end of this thing because it was hurling grass and other objects way too dangerously at high velocities. It made all the difference. I can cut very tall and thick grass with ease. Battery life is decent. The string reload system is different than what I was used to with other trimmers but it's easy enough. After seeing it at work in my yard, the neighbors keep asking to borrow it. 😁

    The ol' garage sale purchased Homelite weed trimmer finally died after 5 years of use. Based on your video and the strong reviews in the comments, I was comfortable spending the $299 on it at Home Cheapo today. This thing... it's such a beast, I love it already after one day. I've switched from gas to battery for good. My only gripe is the installation instructions could be better put together as it was a bit confusing to follow, but was able to get it unboxed and put together for use within 30 mins. Aside from that, I'm so glad to not be yanking my shoulder out of socket and messing with fuel and oil and carburetors and all that nonsense. This DeWalt weed whip is a very happy addition to my home.

    I’m fed up with gas powered trimmers.
    After years of messing with broken Ryobi’s and buying new power heads I bought a Stihl trimmer.
    It worked half way through the season before the catalytic convertor went ( yes a catalytic convertor in a gas trimmer).
    The guys at the parts place talked me into a cheaper muffler alternative and it worked fine for the rest of the season.
    I tried to fire it up this season and ended up having to fix carb problems and it still won’t run off idle.
    I literally took a 20# sledge hammer to the thing and vowed never to buy another gas trimmer again.
    I gave away all my ryobi attachments to a relative and I’m getting a dewalt 60v trimmer.
    I already have four 60v batteries from other dewalt tools to i’ll have plenty of spares.
    I’m just hoping I don’t have bad issues with the new trimmer.
    I’ve heard other guys using husky string spools with better results so I’m not opposed to modifying mine.
    I’ll post an update once I take possession and put it through its paces.
    I love Dewalt tools and own over 20 different 20-60v tools as I’m a well rounded tradesman and I live in the mountains where I restore and build cabins and mini houses on the side of one of my other jobs so cordless tools are mandatory in my more remote build site locations.

    I have previously had 2-stroke, 4-stroke (surprisingly weak), drag the cord trimmers .. and to me this one keeps up, actually bests all
    let's not even talk 'corded', while fine for some normal city yard trimming, they are 'restrictive'
    gas is noisy and very high maintenance , oil, mix gas/oil, plugs and 'fuel lines' that fail .. That is the neat thing .. a cordless (& yes corded) can be in the back of your shed all winter without the slightest concern or prep work (This is something overlooked by many) but this only ages as it is used, not sitting
    I bought it as I was already using D-W tools giving me an extra battery and thereby making the tool 'inexpensive' ... taking down 12" grass and soft weeds it never slowed, in thick sturdy weeds it suffers like any string trimmer (I haven't gotten to my better line yet) as they 'flex' .... also , lots if heavy weeds cost battery time (same as more gas on gas trimmers) ... BUT THIS IS A BEAST
    NOW for commercial landscaping work , I wish people would get quiter using these, but having limited charging ability on the roaf (at minimum they'd need a 500Wcar power inverter to maybe recharge 2 cycles worth) This will be an investment as they'll need at least 3 to 5 batteries to make the day and that 800 plus the unit
    batteries carry 3 yr warantee , so over that time gas cost would add up too (in CA anyway)
    I will only have occasional need ... actuall doing some volunteer trimming since I have it - shows how much i enjoy the tool
    WELL WORTH IT

    I have one of these, I love it! I'll agree the guard is too small. Also the string cutter is too close, it does have a smaller cutting diameter than most gas powered trimmers. Most all gas powered trimmers are great, but after about 3 years of use you will begin having starting issues (carburetor) no matter how good you take care of it. This one, you pull the trigger, it runs! It surprised me how long the battery lasts, even on high. However, I must disagree with the weight statement, it probably weighs about 1-1/2 times heavier than my old husky and 1-1/4 times heavier than the stihl (husky is the lightest one I have used, using it with one hand was no problem). But the weight is worth the trade off for the lack of aggravation starting it on those too hot summer days.

    Wel, you asked for response, I'm giving mine from Hungary, Eastern Europe. I'd like to highlight that I'm a greenhead, I really love the electric future we're heading into, but.. it's expensive and still too weak. In my opinion, and of course for my workload. I cut higher grass than yours, to almost ground level. My brushcutter is an FS 350 (more specifically my dad's). It's strong, but loud and.. you know, gas powered. We work with these 4-5 hours a day, I usually do it non-stop (only refuel).and I'm not talking about lawns here, it's a bit further from the house and the growth rate there is insane. I really wanted to buy an FS 130 (I don't know if it's sronger than the DeWalt you showed) but it just doesn't fit. We could barely afford it with a small battery, but we really need a backpack one for sustained works, which is just insane. I'm not saying it's bad, I love them and all, the thing is, not everyone can maintain a lawn and rural, more poor regions just use $50 chinese mockup brushcutters because that's what they afford. I'd love to hear from you about this topic, until then, cheers!

    Looks like a nice trimmer. I am team Red. Bought first model without quick lok. Loved it, but my last gas trimmer had attachments. As soon as quick look came out bought another trimmer. Have string and edger setup. Just switch battery and go. So easy vs gas. Overtime lines, pump ball, and carb needed maintenance. With electric you just go and nothing to do. For my needs electric all the way on edger and stringer. Still rocking gas for mower. Love my Honda!!

    I just picked up one of these from Home Depot yesterday to go along with our 2x20v mower with the two 9AH batteries I got about a month ago. I would classify myself light duty consumer needs. Our yard is fairly small. From my perspective the FlexVolt 9AH 20v 60V Max batteries in these devices do the job barely eating into a notch on the batteries. Now the grass is still growing slowly, just a single 13 galling trash bag worth of clippings in a week. In a few weeks that will probably start picking up but I think these batteries should be able to make it through a full cut even once the grass is growing at its peek.
    Both devices came with 9AH batteries but the string trimmer came with a charger that charges faster (DBB115) than the two chargers (DCB112) that came with the mower. I like the tools because I don't have to deal with the fumes from the gas, the devices are not as noisy and starting the string trimmer motor on our STIHL was always hard for me. These devices just come right on, do their job.
    Cost wise they where roughy the same or a little less then a prosumer entry level STIHL tool so I think the price is very completive. As long as the batteries and motors on the devices hold up I'm very happy.

  • @riffmaster56

    I have a Dewalt 60V Max Brushless and it is a beast. My trimmer came with a superior quickload head and line bump feeder which is
    great for replacing line. It uses a ratcheting method to automagically wind the line onto the inner spool making line replacement easy
    peasy. One downside is that this bad boy is so powerful that projectiles will hammer your shins. It is a tad pricey at $250+ including
    battery and charger but worth every penny. The battery power is gold because it eliminates a gas powered motor which requires pull
    starting, not to mention the gunked up carb problems you always have every spring after the unit has been in off-season storage. All
    in all a really great trimmer.

    I’ll stick with my sthil 91 r. Weighs less has more power and runs longer on a tank. The extra time putting gas in it and mixing gas is comparable to putting a battery on the charger and taking it off.
    In my opinion. Looks great for residential use though

      @MrDirtysteve75 4 года назад

      I've got a Sthil that I bought new in 05. It was awesome aside from 2 bump feed heads failing in the first 2 seasons. Somewhere around year 11 or 12 I replaced the recoil spring then again last season. Replaced the carb last season. Now my tank cap gasket is worn and fuel tank cracked near the top. Had problems keeping it running yesterday and had no desire to work on it so I finished the yard with my in laws electric trimmer. As much as I love Sthil, I think it may be time to quit messing with carbs and cords and go cordless electric.

      OK, it suffers the same fate as any 'string' though i just did an area next to where a gas powered struggled with 'heavy' stalk weeds and I beat them up better
      However .... tall thick weeds eat the battery faster than your 'average lawn' used 2 batteries on heavy overgrowth of 3 months of neglect 12x50ft - but did twice that on less than one battery with more 'average encounters' of grass n weeds
