Good strimmer for the price.,
This review is from: Black & Decker GL360 350w Strimmer (25cm Swathe Bump Feed 2 Handles) (DIY & Tools)
In the past my strimmers have all seemed to suffer from line feed problems, with my last one being an absolute nightmare in the end as I had to take the spool off (a job in itself) and manually feed some line out every time I wanted to do some strimming.So when I was looking for a new strimmer I wanted something that had a decent line feed, and an easy to replace spool/line when needed. I toyed with the idea of getting a strimmer with blades instead of line, but all of my edges are against walls, and reviews suggested that the blades on these strimmers don't cope that well in that situation. So in the end I went for this one, and so far I've been very happy with it. I've used it about 4 times so far and it's nice and light, cuts well and the line feed has so far been excellent and very easy to use. I have a fairly large garden, but the power cord is long enough to reach most of it, and only requires a short extension to reach the far corners. If it continues to perform like this then it will deserve 5 stars as it's a great little strimmer for the price.

GL360 strimmer,

This review is from: Black & Decker GL360 350w Strimmer (25cm Swathe Bump Feed 2 Handles) (DIY & Tools)
Line-strimmers are possibly the most unreliable tools in the gardener's shed. I have had at least 5 of them in the past 15 years, & they all shared the same problems. Either the line won't feed properly, or the line cut-off blade ends up missing or broken. My last strimmer had blades instead of line, but the blades were too soft & they couldn't be sourced locally. The battery gave up after 2 years, so I priced a replacement one. It was £20. This didn't seem like good value, so I bought the B&D GL360 strimmer, which cost a tenner more. This one is mains powered instead of battery driven, which restricts flexibility, but at least it does away with batteries that never seem to last a full cut.It arrived in just 2 days, & within 5 minutes, it was assembled. The extra handle gives very good balance, & it's very light to hold. The motor is powerful enough to cope with the jungle that I call a lawn & it doesn't lose much speed when pitched against some tough long grass. The line has what B&D call a 'Bump-Feed' system. Basically, it works by pressing the strimmer spool against the ground during use. There is a button on the spool base that depresses & feeds out the line. How long this will be reliable for is anybody's guess, but it seems no worse than the damned auto-feeds that usually plague these tools. It does, however, get in the way when using the strimmer in awkward areas because of the extra depth that the button adds to the spool. The OEM line is awful: With previous line strimmers, I would have to set the line 2 or 3 times during use. The line kept flying off this one & needed to be set 11 times for one lawn trim. As soon as it has run out, I will replace it with a higher quality line that I know is available at the local DIY cantre. The cut-off blade is attached to the plastic guard; the mounting looks weak & it doesn't inspire confidence. Other strimmers that have this arrangement have lost the blades very rapidly (whereupon the strimmer is impossible to use unless you cut the line with scissors). If this one lasts, I will update the review. Meanwhile, be aware of this, as it will cost you a new guard once the blade is lost. In summary, the GL360 build & design is very average, but has some good features. To get the 3 star rating in perspective, only 1 of my previous strimmers would have achieved that rating: most would be 1 or 2 stars, including some very expensive ones.

This product just quite simply doesn't work. It looks like a neat compact strimmer, ideal for my little patch of lawn but even when I was just trying it out the line kept breaking and it didn't seem to cut even one blade grass?! I cannot think of anything positive to say at all and am very disappointed in what is usually a good brand. Amazon have been very good though and I am getting a full refund. I may just spend that on some decent shears though!!
