 Excellent Product at a Great Price! December 15, 2009
R. Saini (Vancouver, BC, Canada)
Recently purchased a home and needed a trimmer...I was originally going to cheap out and buy a cheaper wired model off of Amazon, however a few friends told me that I should buy a wireless one instead and this was the cheapest one I could find.
Don't let the price fool you - this is a great product! Simply unplug from the wall when needed, trim away, then plug back in. It does the job great and couldn't be happier.
The only reason I didn't give it 5* is because I haven't replaced the spool yet, so don't know how hard that will be.

I had a Toro Trimmer before which just quit working after about 20 years of service.
I was looking for a replacement for it and found the qualifing one in the Toro Model 51467.
All other Trimmers I checked on did not have what I was looking for:
1. Light, balanced and easy to handle.
2. Long lasting Power, Model 51467 has it.
3. Price, a little over $40.00
4. Free shipping from Amazon.
I can go all around the perimeter of my property and also around the perimeter of my home on the same charge.
I am more than just happy with this purchase from Amazon.
In these times I figured someone made a mistake but it's true.
 Okay for small yards September 28, 2009

I've used it three times now and my preliminary thoughts are as follows:
PROS: Rechargeable, battery has enough power for smaller lawns. Run time is adequate. Not too heavy or bulky.
CONS: To me the biggest disadvantage is the 8" length of the trimmer. It can't "reach" far enough. You have to put it very close to the item being trimmed for it to be effective. To edge the grass next to the driveway requires placing the bump feed head on the concrete to get the string close enough.
I would choose another trimmer next time but it's not bad for small areas.
Great Item - 6 years heavy use, no problems September 28, 2009

I'm really puzzled by the reviews. I don't recall any issues with assembly, if I even had to "assemble" it. Seems to me it was almost ready to go right out of the box. I bought it from Amazon, great service as always. The comments about the string are also puzzling. Buy some different string, which you'll have to do anyway as you only get a small amount. Get the CORRECT line and I've never had a problem in 6 summers of heavy use. Of course it's heavy, it has a 12 volt battery in it and a drive motor, that's how it works. What were people expecting? It's still lighter than a gas model. As far as it not having a large enough cutting area, see where it says "7 inch" in the name? THAT is how big of cutting area. If you wanted more you shouldn't have bought a 7 inch model. To me this is the best "yard money" I've spent. No hassling with gas engines, no cords to drag around, lots of power. No complaints at all. **UPDATE** I just picked up a new one. It is MUCH lighter, and snaps together in a minute. Great improvements!
