Shrubber is Handy Around the Yard 
2008-06-12
I bought the B/D Cordless Shrubber early this season and have used it several times. It's easy to use, more convenient than the standard hedge clippers and does a good job on light duty tasks...i.e. new growth. Don't expect it to cut through mature branches. It's great for shapping small ornamentals.
Black & Decker Trimmer

Great product from B&D. Does exactly what it is supposed to do. Has plenty of power for most general shrub work. I also use it to trim off all dead flowers from my perennials for a second bloom, much faster than pinching them off. Have never had a problem with it running out of charge and liked it so much, I bought one for my dad for Father's day. Highly recommend.
Great for the Small Stuff 2008-05-29
I bought this for my 91 year old Grandmother who, believe it or not, still does a lot of her own yard work. It is light and great for the small stuff. The only complaint I heard is that it won't cut big branches (which I knew when I bought it) and that the battery life is short (which I wanted so she would take more breaks). For doing general maintenance of shrubs, etc. this is a perfect fit... if you want to do major trimming you will certainly need a heftier unit.
Black and Decker small hedge trimmer 2008-05-12
Love this product. Could not find it anywhere.... Home Depot was out of them and EVERY store I contacted did not carry it. This product is light and easy to use... And battery operated.... Worth every penny.
B&D CORDLESS SHRUBBER DS700 2008-05-08
GREAT PRODUCT FOR DOING SMALL TRIMMING JOBS. IT'S NOT SUPPOSE TO REPLACE MY GAS SHRUBBER. YOU CAN USE FOR HALF HOUR AT A TIME FOR QUICK TRIMMING AROUND THE YARD FOR TOUCH UPS.
Nice little piece 2008-07-17
My son bot a house w/ all of the contents. This was one of them. It still had a bit of a charge left, so my wife took it and tried it on our shrubs. She fell in love w/ it !! Only problem was, no charger. So I searched for a new charger, when I found one, on line, it was $20.00 + s+h ! I found a complete new unit on Amazon.com, for $34.99 shipped !!! Now we have 2 trimmers and a charger, for only $10.00 more than just the price of a charger. She absolutely loves it, and has a extra fully charged unit if she gets REALLY ambitious !
Great Product 2008-07-14
I love this trimmer. I have a small wheeled cart that I push around the yard to weed and trim my flowers and bushes. I keep this trimmer right in the cart and can use it for small touch ups.
The BEST light-duty tool! 2008-07-05
Years ago I owned one of these trimmers(& loved it), but the new models are a lot lighter. I'm a woman in my mid-50's & wanted something light & cordless. I can whip through a bush using only one hand. I wanted something that would do light trimming & would be quick & hassle free. This is it! No cord to mess with. Now, you lose something in these smaller, lighter trimmers. And that's a lot of power. It's NOT for heavy duty trimming. It is great for boxwoods & I even trim my forsythia bushes with it (although some of the branches are too thick for the trimmer to cut through). I've also used it on my rose bushes & it does a great job. For light trimming, I would definitely recommend this trimmer.
Not very powerful 
2008-06-29
I purchased this tool because I have quite a few small boxwoods that I need to trim. I thought a small shrubber like this would be great, especially since it is cordless. However, the slow cutting speed makes it inadequate for the job, and the battery makes it quite heavy, not ideal when you have more than a few shrubs to trim. I am using my manual hedge shears again.
Only buy this for very light work.
Love it! 2008-06-14
I really like this little trimmer. The charge lasts a little over 30 minutes and the cutting ability is better than I expected. Works just great for small trimming jobs and it's not too heavy for higher work.
