The BEST light-duty tool!
Years ago I owned one of these trimmers(& loved it), but the new models are a lot lighter. I'm a woman in my mid-50's & wanted something light & cordless. I can whip through a bush using only one hand. I wanted something that would do light trimming & would be quick & hassle free. This is it! No cord to mess with. Now, you lose something in these smaller, lighter trimmers. And that's a lot of power. It's NOT for heavy duty trimming. It is great for boxwoods & I even trim my forsythia bushes with it (although some of the branches are too thick for the trimmer to cut through). I've also used it on my rose bushes & it does a great job. For light trimming, I would definitely recommend this trimmer.

Not very powerful
I purchased this tool because I have quite a few small boxwoods that I need to trim. I thought a small shrubber like this would be great, especially since it is cordless. However, the slow cutting speed makes it inadequate for the job, and the battery makes it quite heavy, not ideal when you have more than a few shrubs to trim. I am using my manual hedge shears again.
Only buy this for very light work.

Love it!
I really like this little trimmer. The charge lasts a little over 30 minutes and the cutting ability is better than I expected. Works just great for small trimming jobs and it's not too heavy for higher work.

Shrubber is Handy Around the Yard
I bought the B/D Cordless Shrubber early this season and have used it several times. It's easy to use, more convenient than the standard hedge clippers and does a good job on light duty tasks...i.e. new growth. Don't expect it to cut through mature branches. It's great for shapping small ornamentals.

Black & Decker Trimmer
Great product from B&D. Does exactly what it is supposed to do. Has plenty of power for most general shrub work. I also use it to trim off all dead flowers from my perennials for a second bloom, much faster than pinching them off. Have never had a problem with it running out of charge and liked it so much, I bought one for my dad for Father's day. Highly recommend.
