 Black & Decker GL716 Strimmer 580w October 24, 2007

Great product when it works. As mentioned by others the design is very poor and as soon as it gets hot the band that links the motor to the cutter breaks. This happens after relatively light use.
 Doesn't do what is says on the box July 31, 2007

Like all the B&D products I've bought, this disappoints. Constantly breaking down, you would be better off with a scythe. Simply doesn't work if you are expecting to get out there and strim for an hour. B&D should do a lot more to deliver a quality product, not this badly-engineered failure.
