Bought this item for clipping beach grass , which gets thicker every year. Did an ok job , but felt like it was already getting dull after 20 mins of use. The grass shears for regular trimming around , shrubs worked great, but the power only lasted about 15 minutes before it died. I think there are probably better items for around the same money out there. If this had been 29.99, it would have been worth it , but I think it is overpriced for the power output and the quality of the product.

I purchased this item specifically to clip a hybrid Bermuda grass developed for golf courses. It is installed on an outdoor model railroad. The grass must be clipped closely at least every other day. I had been doing it manually until I received the Power CS18. This tool has made this chore a breeze. Moreover, the grass clipper also does an excellent job on an Asian jasmine groundcover, even without the shrub attachment.

We bought one of these several years ago, and it worked very well for about 3 years. The battery finally would not hold a charge, so we bought another one last fall. its battery will only hold a charge for about 5-8 minutes. I looked at the battery packs, and discovered that the old battery pack was a 2500 mAH(milli-amp hours) Ni-MH(nickel metal hydroxide (better) unit, and the new one is only 1800 mAH, Ni-Cd(not as good as Ni-MH) type. So they have cheapened the device, but not lowered the price. I will try and find a clippers similar to this one, but with an extention cord. Don't buy this thing, as it is a waste of time and money.
