Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker NST2036 Heavy-Duty 36-Volt Cordless Electric String Trimmer

Customer Review: Excellent move from a Ryobi
Summary: 5 Stars

After my 15-years-plus Ryobi finally faltered (plastic fuel lines crumbled) I decided I would not accept the vibration, noise, and pollution of another gasoline-powered trimmer (I blame my Raynaud's condition on the Ryobi). I did actually buy a smaller, lighter-duty B&D cordless trimmer before buying the NST2036, and that is now my backup, until I can spring for a 2nd battery for the NST2036.
The NST2036 is a really nice, well-built, smooth, solid machine. It handles the same jobs as my old heavy-duty Ryobi did, but with no pollution and much less noise, but still some vibration. Yes, I feel battery life is always too short, but I can stage large jobs to accommodate that. I have heard of issues with this machine stopping unexpectedly, but when it has happened to me, it has either been solved by reseating the battery or is an indication I have used all the charge and the battery needs recharging.
I look forward to many happy years of use of this machine. Of course, paying just under $150 for a machine that listed at over $450 has helped me work through learning about the unexpected stops....

Description of Black & Decker NST2036 Heavy-Duty 36-Volt Cordless Electric String Trimmer


See how the NST2036 measures up against other trimmers when it comes to cut rates and power output.
Black & Decker's Trimmers: Power, Precision, and Performance
Black & Decker offers a full line of electric and cordless grass trimmers with cutting paths ranging from 9 to 14 inches. Packed with power to tackle tough weeds and grass, these trimmers are low noise and do not emit fumes.

Super-Charge Your Yard with the NST2036 Cordless String Trimmer
Now the company that invented cordless yard solutions brings you the first battery-powered string trimmer that delivers the performance of gas. Just imagine the freedom that cordless convenience can bring -- without the hassles of pull cords, spilled gas, tune-ups, or harmful emissions. With 36 volts of power and a newly designed, super-efficient motor that boasts a patented gear drive transmission, you?ll get all the torque you need for tough cutting with less noise and vibration than a traditional gas trimmer.

Gas vs. Electric: Black & Decker Changes the Rules
Many consumers own a gas-powered string trimmer because they don't think that electric string trimmers have the power to address their needs. But Black & Decker's 36-volt trimmer is a true breakthrough, offering the performance of a gas-powered string trimmer with the tidiness of a battery power source. This trimmer's removable high-output 36-volt NiCad battery features pro-grade cells with a total capacity of over 75 watt hours. That means it offers more than three times the energy of an 18-volt battery (as compared to HPB18-OPE 18-volt pack).


Gear drive transmission delivers power and no-stall torque for performance comparable to a gas trimmer.

Removable 36-volt battery delivers over 75 watt hours of power and is rechargeable.

Starts every time with the squeeze of a variable-speed trigger for gas-like control; lock-off button adds safety.

Rugged bump-feed head features heavy-duty .080-inch line and a 14-inch cutting path.
With a cut rate of 51 square feet per minute, this trimmer actually cuts faster than most consumer-grade gas units in recent testing. It quickly mows down your tallest weeds, giving you the power to trim along fences, houses, and landscape beds -- and because it's cordless, you don't have any extension cords or wires to trip you up or tie you down.

Feature-Packed and Ready to Work
The NST2036 has a 14-inch cutting swath, which is the largest ever for a cordless string trimmer -- but that's not its only claim to fame. It delivers real industry-leading performance, no-stall torque, and true efficiency for run time that will amaze and delight you, all from a battery that delivers hundreds of recharge cycles ... so it will last for years. This model easily covers even big yards with loads of trees and fences.

And in addition to all this power, the NST2036 is extremely easy to control. It has no frustrating cords to pull, but it starts every time with just a squeeze of the trigger; and this variable speed trigger allows for gas-like control, so you'll always receive just the right power for any application. A lock-off button prevents accidental starts, and the rugged bump-feed head stocks a heavy-duty dual .080-inch line. The telescoping shaft offers quick and simple height adjustment, and the auxiliary handle adjusts to various heights for comfort in all trimming positions -- for users of every size.

Best of all, the NST2036 is the first trimmer in its class to receive the Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star certification for its charging system. With the NST2036 you'll save money on energy bills, and at the same time you can help prevent greenhouse gas emissions for a cleaner planet.

Applications

The first trimmer in its class to receive the Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star certification for its charging system, this efficient and environmentally friendly model from Black & Decker trims mowed areas on most 1/2-acre homesites, and is great for heavy-duty weed clearing and cutting.

Finally, a bump feed system feeds the line on demand, and a shoulder strap helps ensure even distribution of weight. The NST2036 comes with a three-year warranty.
