BLACK+DECKER Electric Hedge Trimmer, 17-Inch (BEHT150)

This was been a very reliable and easy tool to use. It is light and works great. It stays sharp and makes quick work of my hedges.

i was concerned that this would be bulky and heavy to replace my old worn out trimmer with. not so! i was wonderful. light because the case is plastic. quicker being longer than my old ones. efficient being so much sharper. corded so the power is consistent throughout use,

I love this. First of all, it's way sharper than the very old one I had been using. I especially like that it uses an electrical cord that plugs into a wall outlet (be sure to use a heavy duty extension cord), instead of needing to be charged up constantly. And - I used it for an hour, and the plug did not come out of the connector, which was a major problem with my old one. It's lightweight and somewhat small, so easy to hold and maneuver by this 95lb female. I could even hold it with one hand to reach certain areas. I'm using it to trim Asian jasmine and small tree seedlings, and light shrubbery, and it works super well. I have a feeling it would cut larger stems, too. Very happy.

Works great and handles better. Delivery UPS great.

I was skeptical at first but bought it. Glad that I did!!!, easy to use, and sharp!!! I do not have to pay for handy man to trim my garden :-)

This light weight trimmer hits a home run. Great for homeowners with front yard trimming. Cuts sharply with ease. I admit I did expect much but was surprised and happy with the quality, ergonomics, lightweight of this. My finished plantings looked like they got shaved rather than cut; the cuttings are so fine. Easily cut thru wood plants branches up to 3/8” each. Would recommend to a friend. Verified purchase

This Is amazing easy to handle and the blade is super sharp. Great value for your money!

I recently purchased my first house and needed some tools for lawn care. The previous owners allowedthe hedges to go a little too crazy in shape and began to protrude past portions of the garage whichwould scratch against our cars.I added some hedge shears for $30 into my cart and was about to purchase it as I figured electric wouldbe too expensive. I was extremely surprised to see the BEHT100 listed for $37 with free shipping. Ifigured the worst-case scenario is that the BEHT100 is not the greatest, but for only $7 more I would give it a shot. Plus, it seemed to have good reviews.The box arrived and unfortunately the weather was not cooperating. Much to the annoyance of myfiancée I got to pretend to be Tim “the Tool Man” Taylor while opening it up and pretending to give thecat a haircut. Neither were amused. That’s when I noticed it did not come with a cord.So just a heads up that you need to either have an extension cord or buy one. I purchased a 16AWG50FT cord for ~$17 which works great. Plus, it will come in handy later on in life.Finally, the weather was nice, and I got to test it out. The instructions did showcase how to best use it,but I did elect to watch some YouTube videos as well. Overall, I was more than satisfied with the performance, especially compared to the price. I added some before and after photos. Photo of the product leaned up against a gallon of paint for a size reference.It is easy to operate one handed and still manipulate the Lock Off button with your thumb and activatethe trigger with your hand. The result looks pretty good too for a first timer. There were a few largerbranches that didn’t cut as well, but I believe they were larger than the recommended cutting size. I wasable to break them off and continue finishing the job.My initial impression has been great overall and I look forward to getting to use it more often nextsummer! I hope to be able to edit this review later on to have more experience on the reliability & longevity of the product, but for now I have no complaints.
