DEWALT 20V MAX* String Trimmer Kit, 5-Ah (DCST922P1)

My husband loves this trimmer!! And the string that was recommended is super easy to install. Best trimmer he's used, definitely a happy customer!!

Easy to use. Lightweight. Works great.

I love this thing. Very light, easy to handle. Has the simplest string replacement system I have ever seen on a weed eater.

I got my trimmer yesterday after 7 days. I assembled it, and charged the battery.THE GOOD: It is NOT bashful, plenty of power and cut grass and weeds without any problems. The controls are positioned very handy and easy to use. I like the folding bar that makes it easier to hang for storage. The battery pack appears compatible with my DeWalt drill. I was able to trim my whole yard with out having to advance the cutter string, Very tough stuff. I just ordered a 225 foot package of it and it will probably last me for years.Trimmer is very quiet when running, much quieter than my old cordless one.It is well balanced and by placing your arm on the battery case you can help with the balance.THE NOT SO GOOD: My first dislike came when I tried to read the manual. It is printed on very pore, cheap paper and organized very poorly. My eye site is not the best and I had to get my magnifying glass out to read it. I would suggest if you buy one is to go on line and google the trimmer and download and print it out. I was able to find a Youtube video that very good with much better instructions to replace the string and use the trimmer.All in all I am pleased with it and will more than likely buy other DeWalt yard tools.

I purchased this w/ battery and charger because I have DeWalt drill which is outstanding. I had a Ryoby trimmer. It was junk and stopped working well after about dozen uses. Same w/ Ryoby blower. This DeWalt weed eater trimmer is extremely powerful. I had to cut thru very thickly rooted grass to fix a lawn sprinkler. ‘Piece of cake!" Assembles easy (but I’m pretty handy). The instructions are not that good but between them and the picture on the box it assembled in about 25 minutes. With good instructions, would be 7 minutes or less. There’s always youtube. This is not for edging per the instructions, but you can twist it sideways for trimming; but the head doesn’t turn 90 deg for that. It is extremely well balanced and it is long. I’m 5’10.5" and it is great. I think a smaller person -say 5’4" or less, may have trouble guiding it … not sure. Again, it is so very very easy to operate and very powerful. I did not time the battery but it lasted for all the work I had. You will not be disappointed. It’s worthwhile getting a good product to begin with, even if its $20-$40 more. You’ll save over $100 by not having to throw away a poor item.

Excelente herramienta. Hoy mismo la recibí y la use. Muy buena.

Dewalt Support Non Existent!!DO NOT BUY THIS DEWALT WEED TRIMMER, IT WILL FAIL AND THEY WILL IGNORE YOU! Customer support is very bad and there is no real support. This specific item has known issues which Dewalt will ignore. The first unit I purchased failed within 3 months. I had a very hard time getting needed support (they like to ignore your request for support, drag out the process by asking questions already answered, and then ignore you until you go away). Support prefers phone calls so that there is no official record or documentation. After months of going back and forth and just about throwing in the towel on the unit and brand, one supervisor came forward and actually did not right thing and helped me resolve the matter. Long story short, I am a long time customer of Dewalt and have many tools and storage units which have worked great. This specific weed trimmer package purchased (DCST9221) was great when it worked; light and easy to use. But when it failed, support was horrible and their tactics are to frustrate the customer until they give up. I say this because being a loyal customer, enjoying the light weight of the unit which made it easier to use for an older man, I MISTAKENLY gave Dewalt a second chance and purchased another unit thinking the first was an outlier. My second experience with this trimmer was only different in that the support was even worst then the first time. Once again the trimmer failed (according to the support, the motor failed which has been out of stock for months) after only6 uses; just outside of the 90 day return window. I contacted customer support and experienced the same run around only worse. Despite my request to escalate my complaint to a supervisor after months and months of contacting them, the same support person refuses to escalate my complaint and initially wanted me to send my unit thousands of miles, just to be checked; when we had a Dewalt service and repair a few miles away. The trimmer has been in for repair for three months with no completing date in sight and Dewalt won’t respond to any of my emails other than a generic; “Your request (11776241) has been received and is being reviewed by our support staff.” And then you hear nothing from them. Again, I loved Dewalt and have a lot of Dewalt tools and storage units, but their support is nonexistent and they will not help their customers when their faulty products fail. No loyalty for loyal customers. If you buy this trimmer you better hope it fails within the first 90 days, because their 1 year repair and parts, and 3 year warranty is useless. DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!!!!

This has plenty of power for a residential homeowner doing their own landscaping. Works great and I’m happy with it. Just make sure you have some fully charged spare batteries.
