Summary: 1 Stars
Long story short.. I have a 10' x 12' piece of lawn, with no obstructions, plain grass, and never overgrown that I used this thing twice to cut. On the second time, with about 3 square feet left, the motor spun up and the head quit turning. I did some searches for the problem, found many with the same complaint.. "The plastic gear stripped." So, I opened it up, and low and behold.. one large pile of melted gear and the belt laying there. The beauty of this (for Black and Decker) is that to replace this plastic gear you must buy the whole motor assembly. The cost.. well, might as well buy a new one, the few dollar difference is worth not having to turn a few screws, In other words.. RIP OFF! Stay away.. I am by all means a light duty user. Do some searching you will find similar stories for THIS problem after just 10 - 15 minutes of first time use. The repair would be easy, if they sold the gear.. but why would they do that.. Profits is Profits.. Never again. I would recommend buying a good old gas weed eater at a garage sale for $10 versus buying this "new technology" .. you'll be happier.Customer Review: do not buy this one!

I'm just adding another poor review of this model. Ours lasted about 2 years. We can't find our receipt so we can't follow through with the warranty. When we took it apart to investigate why the spool wasn't rotating we also found the plastic gear inside melted and ruined. After looking at so many people having problems with this product, we are staying away for our next one!Customer Review: The worst

Can't use without their very expensive replacement spool. Torque converter does not work. If I had not spent so much, it would be in the trash.
