Title: Excellent trimmer, but it needs care
Review: I bought my Grass Hog in 2000 and finally this spring it died. The battery wouldn't recharge. I found out where to order another one in another post (Dewalt Factory Service, online). That battery wouldn't recharge either, so I returned it to my local Service Center and they exchanged it, after asking if I had brought along the charger, too. The new battery wouldn't recharge, so I took it back to the Service Center along with the charger. The problem was my charger, not my battery. The gentlemen there gave me other tips which will probably keep my Grass Hog going for another 5 years. Store it inside in the winter. Inside does not mean in the garage, because that can still be cold enough to freeze the battery. I was lucky because I have an attached garage (slightly warmer) and I kept my Grass Hog on the charger all winter even though I wasn't using it. If you need to take it in for service, take the charger as well as the battery.
Is the review positive or negative?
