I think this is a fantastic product.....I use it to cut my lawn...because my backyard is mostly pool and only a small lawn. It works Great. I wish the batteries lasted a little longer...but I usually have enough juice to finish my lawn. It was a lot cheaper than buying a lawn mower and the string is really simple to change....YEAH!

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.

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.

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.
