Good Points
Lightweight.
Strong strimmer.
Handy.
Bad Points
Cord uses up rapidly
Battery seems to run out quickly, really needs a spare.
Spare/new battery seems to cost £35 incl VAT, i.e. a new strimmer without battery ought to cost about £20- £30!!!
General Comments
This is my second review.
The first was posted BEFORE I found a website with a spare battery for sale!
Once I saw the price I changed my mind. I could not in honesty recommend the B&D GLC2500 Strimmer. So.
Sorry B&D but you need to reduce the battery prices, or at least give a health warning for anyone buying the Strimmer!

If one does manage to keep a battery going then BEWARE. The motor shaft has only very small splines to secure the rotating head and they WILL strip out in the plastic.
I plan to make my own fittment as the motor is brand new.
