Love this thing!

The backyard of our rental don't have normal grass and is very uneven, making it difficult to use a lawnmower. But it's too large for me to comfortably use a weed whacker for the whole thing. This little guy is even smaller than a weed whacker, and took a tiny bit longer to use on the entire yard, BUT it was so easy and painless! The wheels kind of popped off so I didn't bother putting them back on, but instead just glided it over the grass and weeds without an issue. It's very satisfying watching it take down the difficult weeds! I tried the larger, longer cutting head but the side-to-side motion wasn't very helpful for my situation, so instead used the small forward-facting cutting head. The extension pole is adjustable, and the angle of the cutting head can rotate in either direction that you want. There's a safety switch for starting it, but you can just hold down the main button after you first push in the safety switch. I was out there for at least an hour, alternating between cutting and raking, and the battery didn't slow down at all! I think the only downside was that I cut some areas too short and pulled up some dirt instead, and then my dog decided to help by digging a hole. I definitely felt safer using this versus a weed whacker, and I even let my dog stay outside with me in the yard the entire time. When I was finished, I disassambled the blade and gave it a rinse and it cleaned up really easily. I just wish they made these with a wider blade!

Also this company's customer service was amazing! It wasn't delivered via Prime shipping, but it arrived even faster than my Prime orders! And when I had a issue, they fixed it immediately!

First "quick" trial with the trimmer.

The finished product. My backyard won't be winning any beauty contests, but that's not the trimmer's fault! I just need an easy-to-maintain functional yard for the dog and this trimmer is helping me do just that!
