Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: The American Gardener YardStick cordless edger and trimmer is a great two-in-one yard tool for the homeowner; this battery-powered trimmer converts to a rolling lawn edger with just a turn of the handle using the Quickedge Transition design. The 24-volt Power-Core double ball-bearing motor with Power-Core deep discharge battery will give you up to 45 minutes of cutting time on just one charge. A 10-inch cutting swath makes quick work of yard trimming, and when you need more line, just bump the head and it feeds out more .08 commercial-grade line automatically. We like the symmetry and nice balance of this trimmer in hand, too; it comes with two comfortable grips and a hassle-free start switch. The unit stores in the included wall-mounted charger, which indicates battery status with red and green lights. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Customer Reviews
I love this trimmer!
I have used a battery trimmer in the past, but most recently a gas powered. When it refused to start anymore, I looked for another battery unit. I am so glad I found this one. I couldn't be happier unless someone invents a bump-feed that actually works flawlessly. Other than that it has great power for grass, and the swivel feature makes edging so easy.

Support Stinks
Customer Service is terrible, no help at all. They clearly do not stand behind their products. Needed parts and they were unable to help me.

Yardstick review
The item I received was in excellent working order. I had one of these when it was a Sears WeedWacker and they stopped making it. I am so glad that American Gardener provides it.

Excellent Trimmer For the Cost and Convenience
I had a small gas trimmer which I used up until losing it in a flood. Before then, it was hard to start, unwieldy and belched smoke. Needing a replacement, I opted for the cordless trimmer, expecting to compromise the convenience of no gas/electric cord for power and length of running time.
It turns out there was no compromise. I have about 3/4 acre of yard to care for and this trimmer lasts for all my trimming needs for the whole area on one charge.
It is extremely convenient to change between trimmer and edger, thus negtating my replacing the edger which was also lost in the flood. It does a good job of both for medium to light work trimming. It is lightweight, has a nice balance to it and is very safe to operate, with the double safety of on switch and power trigger, with a safety release that is set when you release the power trigger.
The 24 volt battery is a plus for keeping it running longer on one charge. Plug it into the wall mounted battery charger and forget it until you need it, then it will work for you for about an hour's worth of medium to light level trimming and edging. The AC adapter has a light that changes to red when it is charging, and changes to green when it is fully charged, which is helpful.
This trimmer got better reviews than Black and Decker models, so I tried it and am very happy with the performance and ease of use. It cost less than other brands of cordless trimmers with less battery power and less handy features.
Overall, I would highly recommend this trimmer and and very happy with my purchase.

Work, but heavy
It weighs more than a bowling ball, but, It's easier to use than mixing gas and oil and repeated pulling just to get started. I miss the power of a gas edger.
