Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Black And Decker Gl690 30cm Reflex-Plus Trimmer - 630 Watt.

Give your lawn edges and borders a perfect finish with a Black & Decker Grass Trimmer, to cut the long untidy grass around flower beds, trees and patios.

Strimmers cut grass not with a metal blade but by means of a nylon line which spins at a very high speed.

In use the line will wear or even break when hitting a paving slab for example. This grass strimmer has a unique linefeed system. The Reflex Intelligent Cutting system automatically replaces broken line, when the line breaks. A counterbalance opens, allowing fresh line to feed out until it reaches the correct length, when the balance shuts. This system ensures perfect cutting all the time.

This model has the Trim'n'Edge system which allows the user to twist the head and achieve a perfect finishing touch around the borders and patios.

Features include :

- Telescopic metal pole shaft which is adaptable to different
heights and provides maximum robustness.
- Trim'N'Edge system for perfect edges.
- Simple to replace Reflex spool with automatic line feed.
- Variable setting secondary handle for maximum comfort.
- Heavy cut spool for improved cutting of difficult grass.

Cutting line length : 2 x 6 Metres.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great product - shame about the Reflex line feed, 13 Jun 2006
By Andy Pritchard (Worcester, England) - See all my reviews
I spent ages looking around the shops and the internet for a powerful grass trimmer that would cope with the jungle we have for a back garden and the GL690 seemed to be the best product. Within two hours of using the trimmer I had cut a sizeable quantity of grass and rough scrub with tough stems. The only blot on this otherwise idillic landscape is that the Reflex automatic line feed just keeps on feeding line - whether it's needed or not! I lost track of the number of times I had to stop to untangle the trimmer line from the spool and spindle and my garden was covered in small pieces of trimmer line. The whole spool was exhausted in just over two hours of use.
I returned the trimmer, but the replacement was just as bad, even when just trimming grass.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellent strimmer, 27 Jun 2006
By W. Higgins "warren" (croydon) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
the gl690 has been a good strimmer and very powerful. i will just add one word of caution about using the secondary attachment for long grass. they are great but depsite thickness of line does not last too long and spares about £6 for 5 individual pieces.

i hope this is of help
