Read the fine print
Thought this was a good deal as a new one cost $99.99 but I neglected to read enough of the fine print. The reduction in cost comes from the fact that it ony comes with ONE battery as opposed to two for the new,in the fancy box model. Since the battery costs $50 when purchased separately,this is only a deal if you don't use it very much. I should have gone for the new one.

BEWARE! No second battery with reconditioned model!
When I saw it was $[...] cheaper I thought what a great deal, why would you not buy the factory reconditioned model? What they don't tell you is that it only has one battery and not the two that the brand new, full price model comes with. To buy a 2nd battery it will set you back around $[...] after shipping. So instead of saving [...] bucks, you lose [...]. What a total ripoff. I'd avoid the reconditioned model unless you have plenty of extra batteries at home from other black & decker tools.
6 year owner review
I have had my B&D trimmer now for about six years. The pro's of the trimmer are (compared to corded): There is no extension cord to un-spool, negotiate, and re-spool. (gas): There is no gas needed, no oil needed, no mixing gas and oil needed. No pulling a cord over and over to start. No 2-cyle motor, far fewer moving parts, very reliable. No tingly feeling in my hands and arms after trimming from the constant vibration of the gas trimmer. No sore back; the cordless trimmer is far lighter. No gas motor resting near head blowing exhaust into face. Cordless trimmer is probably like 80% quieter than a gas trimmer; it only makes noise when you pull the trigger. No grease or gunk stuck to trimmer. Head swivels for edging and trimming.
Cons: You will have to replace the Nicad batteries every two to three years at a cost of $65-$80 (compare this to the cost of gas and oil for two years with gas trimmer). You will have to remember to always charge your batteries before use. If you need or...
