Title: DO NOT BUY!
Review: I bought this trimmer from a big box home improvement store a little over a year ago. it replaced a great Ryobi electric trimmer that lasted several years. at first, it was great. it was strong enough to knock down anything in our yard.this spring, i noticed a strange sound coming from the inside of the housing. looking at a diagram, i decided it was likely the drive belt. when it broke a few days later, i found a site online that sold the part. only about $3.50. great. i ordered two, just in case. after spending an hour replacing the belt (no instructions are available from B&D;)which included finding the hidden screw beneath one of the decals, i was eager to catch up on the chores. the belt lasted less than one hour. the pulley that connects the motor to the shaft via the belt is plastic. the belt had fused itself to the pulley. what a stupid design. i will never buy anything from B&D; again.
