Hedge Trimmer is a Great Buy 
2008-05-04
I would recommend this product. I have a lot of underbrush that has been slowly taking over my yard. With the Black and Decker 17 inch hedge trimmer, I am taking my yard back. Thank you Amazon! Great price for a great product!
Bad little trimmer! 2008-04-09
First I must say that I hate Black and Decker, products always break, but I gave this guy a try from the TR1600 and TR1800 review's, I agree from going to HD and Lowe's that Black and Decker's are solid, all other brands I you can see they are flimsy, wasn't sure why there were very few reviews on the 16inch and it is only 29.95?, I am sure its the same beast just different length, yet if anyone knows else wise please post, first suggest get as long of a blade as you can afford, I would have upped for the 17inch, Ok its solid! Cuts great! Seems like sharp blades and a strong motor! The only neg, is the locking button, but this might have been designed as such for safety? Overall 5 stars, 29.95 with free ship is a great deal for a solid cutting beast, very happy cant go wrong! It clawed through thick twigs and cut leaves very clean, B D if this cutter doesn't break in 3-5 yrs I will consider coming back after 15 years! I do see you know how to make trimmers! Just lets see about reliability?
Great little hedge trimmer - light and easy to use 2007-08-28
This is a great length if you have lots of different shrubs and bushes in your yard. Its important not to have to long of a blade that it becomes unwielding and dangerous. This 17" model is great and its weight adds to the overall enthusiam I have for it.
Nice going Black and Decker.

I used the hedge trimmer the first time and it worked wonderfully well. I have a group of bushes that grow fast and produce large offshoots. The trimmer handled them handily, I am looking forward to many years of use. Chas
Great Product 2008-06-16
Very happy with the 17" B&D hedge trimmer. Did a little research and found it was highly recommended by Consumers Reports magazine. Had an older version for 15+ years, and it finally gave out. Don't consider a heavy machine unless you're a body builder! After many hours of trimming you'll be glad you chose this size. Longer blade and heavy weight don't help. I have been using this trimmer for about a month now and love it.
Good for small jobs 2008-06-09
I have a large hedge trimmer and needed something smaller and lighter for ease of manipulation and this B & D does the job. I would limit the diameter of cuts to 1/4" however.
my B&D HedgeTrimmer 2008-05-20
Although I have not yet used my Trimmer (awaiting delivery of the cord which I ordered recently), I am pleased with the 'feel' of the unit - it is not heavy, it will be quite easy to manoeuvre - and Black & Decker is (for me) one of the top brands in Home and Garden tools/equipment (that's why I gave it such a high rating)!! I can't hardly wait to experience my Trimmer!
good quality 2008-05-09
fast shipping but after ordering I saw the same item at the local lowes for about 5 dollars cheaper, which really surprised me considering everything is usually cheaper at amazon.com
