Great tool!!! – Still using original batteries after 2+1/2 years. Never misses a beat!! Cuts for about 30 mins depending on length of grass/stubble being cut. Runs quieter that the petrol ones and NO pull starting :-). Run batteries flat then recharge. Only down side to this fantastic tool is the head. After replacing the head recently with an ebay special, using… Read more
the bolt supplied on purchase ( :-) ) nothing stops it and uses 3mm cutting cord! Absolutely a great machine!!
Had one, lost it in a Tornado – My wife and I bought our grass trimmer/weed eater at our local ALDIs store in Farmington, MO in 2019. We enjoyed using it on our 1.5 acre property during the 2.5 years we had it. What ended it was a Tornado that struck our area and totally destroyed it, along with a number of other lawn utilities. We have been looking for a replacement of… Read more
the same make since then with no luck, so I'm guessing we will have to go online and try to find the manufacturers website, if they have one, and order a new one. We miss it because ot was so easy and light to use for my wife primarily and we had very little issue with its use. Now we just need to find either the manufacturers website, or email address.
The trimmer is great, the line spool covers trash – The trimmer is great, the line spool covers crap, made of flimsy plastic the lugs break easily and I bought four replacements, two the line eye guide fell out on first use Show details
Excellent – Absolutely love it, so easy to use no petrol, noise or cord. Battery lasts it takes me 45 min. and it is still going. Have not had to rewind he spool yet but I am hopeful that it will be easy, we shall see. Show details
Have used a number of the same model for years.. pluses and minuses – Have found the tools to perform well and the batteries 20v. charge quickly and run for almost an hour. Minuses are chiefly to do with the spool which is extremely badly designed and hard to find correct size line.. No tool is provided to unlock the spool after useage run out for replacement. . This then necessitates jamming a screwdriver or… Read more
similar under the spool to hold while anti clock twisting.. Broken or worn down tiny plastic locking flanges if you are not a bit handy with repair (I am a bit) can render the spools unusable. The bump button end of spool can also wear down or shear off.. I mainly use mine for trimming front , small back lawn area and nature strip.. I have had 5 pack up completely even after nursing the spools with repair along for a bit longer.. The batteries appear infrequently ( particularly during covid) with the designs of same and charger bases changing over the years.. I have never attempted to pursue the guarantee with the manufacturer which looks onerous but currently am about to attempt as the latest insult of packaging purchase of new item with other unwanted items is frankly ridiculous.. I considet myself a fairly loyal customer but the ability to purchase spares and to deal with an inhouse guarantee and replacement policy has me now about to purchase a ryobi or Ozito model.. The batteries while still working will continue to be used with other tools in the range.. Would be interested to hear from the aldi/gardenline people on their policys and thinking re their future releases of these lines. Happy with my drill etc which also use the batteries..
Light device - OK for light use – Recently bought this line trimmer with the hope I could move away from my petrol units. I have used it a few times, but not enough to have to refill the line. Positives: Light; Quiet; easy start/stop [no need to pull starter cord]; easy to store; easy to charge without need to store petrol. Negatives: Overall a bit short from me - i felt i had to… Read more
almost stand immediately onto of the weeds to cut them (I'm ~ 179 cm tall). I felt it struggled when dealing with tall or thick grass. Struggled when dealing with thick ground coverings - didn't provide a clean edge. May become a bit expensive when factoring a charger & battery (say extra $50-80)
In conclusion This may be suitable if you only have a very small yard; yet for the perceived convenience you may be better to use hedge cutters or getting a corded unit.
Not worth the aggravation – You get what you paid for; battery doesn't last; now the battery might make for 5 minutes and that is on a full charge... Absolutely hate it; would never purchased a Gardenline product again; no wonder this product is discontinue.. bought at Aldi.. Total waste of money and a waster of my time. Show details
Gardenline 36v Grass Trimmer – I initially brought this with the intention to try and return, as I believed that it would not be any good. 18 months later I still have it, as its proven its worth when used on well kept lawns. I use it once a fortnight and its takes around 20 to 30 minutes to trim my whole lawn. Show 2 replies
Oh so easy! – I hate doing edges and refused to use a noisy two stroke petrol trimmer--even if I could start it. Battery operated is the way to go. Press the trigger and you are away. So quiet, so easy to use and when you're finished just recharge it and its ready for next time. We have quite a few edges and the battery hasn't run flat yet. Had it running… Read more
