Black&Decker ST5530

Light model

The trimmer of the English company Black & Decker weighs only 2.5 kg, thanks to which, after cutting a few acres, you will not feel tired. It easily mows tall grass, small bushes and even raspberry shoots. However, the standard fishing line ends rather quickly, as it has a small thickness of 1.6 mm. For mowing thick grass, we recommend purchasing a thicker fishing line, from 2 to 2.7 mm.

Fits comfortably in the boot

The trimmer is equipped with a retractable bar that can be adjusted to your height. When folded, the mower has a length of only 95 cm (additionally extended by 30 cm), which allows it to be freely transported in the boot of a car. The handle can also be adjusted 180 degrees from the shaft. Separately, it is worth noting the low noise level of 80 dB — a little louder than a conventional blender, while models of this class give out 90 dB or more.

Mowing grass under the curb

The swivel head of the mower is equipped with an edge roller, which allows you to cut the grass vertically, making even "sides". For example, you can carefully cut the grass under the curb. Also, the trimmer can be converted to a stationary lawn mower by first installing the wheelbase (not supplied). Unfortunately the mower is not equipped with a shoulder strap.
