Black & Decker 7.2-Volt Interchangeable Cordless Electric Shear/Shrubber #SSC1000 Reviews
I bought this thinking I could save myself time and money using this rather than the traditional weed eaters- no such luck. Black and Decker dropped the ball on this one- def. Unless you are dealing with minimal to no weeds I would not suggest buying this product. NOT worth the money. It wont cut (I ended up using big household scissors with better results)In the end I will still have to buy the traditional weed eater.
You can get replacement blades, as well. This is a nice hedger, grass shearer for the price. This is helpful when having to cut grass or shrubbery in an awkward position. The only slight problem I have had is that branches get stuck in the hedger and you must stop trimming so that you can remove the branches. I have feeling that some of the other hedger/shearers that the other reviewers had trouble with were defective. You can use one machine to do two functions.
The extension handle is quite helpful when doing most trimming and shearing yard work. I have used the shearer and hedger many times. This item is easy to handle and lightweight. I had no trouble with the battery life or the cutting power of the blades. You might consider buying the extension handle, as I did, if you purchase this item.
If the blades moved a bit faster, I think this problem would have been allieviated.

Augustine grass and Zoysia with both of these models. I hope another company comes out with a comparable one to the Craftsman. The only thing better is that the battery lasts longer with the black & decker. Another thing is that the motor is slow compared to the Craftsman model. I used to have the Craftman brand cordless shears but the sears I've been to don't sell that one anymore. I'm only rating this product for cutting grass since I never used the hedger yet.
I get frustrated when cutting grass because I have to make about three or four passes over the grass before it cuts all of it. FYI: I've cut St. It takes me about three times as long to do the same area as the Craftsman.
This replaced a Sears/OSH product which cut grass better, but had shorter battery life and the batteries could not be replaced (I was willing to make a new battery pack, but they were 2/3 C size which were impossible to find). So it may also be a throw-away once the batteries die.
It's well balanced and fairly light in weight. The grass cutter attachment is poor, but I use a weed wacker for grass anyway.
Like any other rechargeable product, you need to give it an initial charge of over 24 hours before the first use. I was not able to run down the battery during regular use.
I wish they made a unit that used the VersaPak batteries. This unit also uses 2/3 C size NiCd.
My wife uses it, and she likes it.
