Mac Allister 18V LI 18V 280mm Cordless Grass trimmer

Great strimmer unfortunately I now have to throw mine away as my battery has stopped taking a charge and b and q do not sell a battery for this product even though I have read that this is a product made especially for them to sell. I contacted b and q and was informed that there is no agreement with the Chinese supplier for the provision of parts for this strimmer. I was also told that maybe I could purchase an equivalent battery on line but wasn’t told what other make of battery would fit. This is a great strimmer let down with the lack parts, makes me think is this the same as the other Mac Allister products they sell.

A nice bit of kit does what it says on the box cuts very nice all batteries off other McAllister power tools work even the older models nice and light and easy to use

Charges quickly enough and gives me 30 to 40 mins continued usage from one charge. Sheild needs to be added before you start which just clips on....charge and off you go. In use every weekend day since purchase and the plastic line still has plenty left in the wheel.

This is the latest one I bought...was not sure about it but using the trimmer it pass my expectations

I purchased this item last autumn to use to tidy up my lawn edgings only used horizontaly but if I caught an edging stone or a rosebush stem the cord shattered a professional gardener told me the cord was substandard and would never be any good
