MAKITA 18V Brushless Battery “Cordless” String Trimmer / Weed Eater Unboxing & Review
Youtube Channel
Nice unboxing Andrew! I’m split between Makita and Milwaukee in my shop so I need to give this one a shot, so sick of gas powered. Underrated channel, deserve more subs! You have great personality man! Keep it up!
Might end up getting this. Nice review
I love mine. Think I paid 150 at HD on sale.
109 pounds on Ebay now….
Man, love the house. Very jelous. A place like that here in Sydney would easily be 3 Million +.
What model number is it thanks
NIce one mate. I just bought one this evening and had to give it a test run. The brushless motor sound makes me think I'm launching one of my RC planes, which has been known to make me nervous, being a rookie pilot! This "whipper snipper" as we say in Oz seems to be pretty robust and gets through the thick stuff OK. Thanks for the demo – well done and cheers from Sydney, Dave
Great vid… love the garage work bench.. would like to build the same for my garage. Any suggestions?
Cucumber the humor will be random generated
Just got mine today but it’s defective
Would you still recommend this man?
Awesome shirt! Where did you get it?
Great video! This is my first time watching one of your videos! What kind of videos do you do? Are they all gardening related videos? Awesome review and I am will definitely consider getting one of these! I am currently looking for a good battery powered whipper snipper and this looks like the perfect one for me! I have never seen anything like it! I live in Australia and I will try to see where I can get one! I might be able to get one at my local bunnings warehouse store! Thank you for this great video and review!
Yep you sold me on it. I have an old Stilh 55r. Finally giving me trouble. I have only had it in the shop a few times. Really good product. When it wouldn't run today I was 30 miles from the Stilh dealer. Had to load up the truck, go to the dealer, get the parts, go back to the shop, install the parts and then back to the job that only took 15 more minutes to finish. Needless to say I choked the old rascal a few times and thought about bashing it on the driveway. Yeah I kinda lost it with a few choise words thrown. I have many Makita products with at least 4 extra sets of batteries. You jetting around and one handing it pushed me over. Thanks!!!! They have 10 in stock at the Home Depot near me.
Dude!…. get a friggin hobby!!
I noticed you used a 5AH battery but the unit came with a 4AH, obviously completely interchangeable.
For anyone interested, Home Depot has this item listed at $150 right now. Makita is trying to push their new 36v models, which have a more powerful & efficient motor, with longer runtime. With that said, I will be buying this 18v brushless model this weekend because I don't really have the need for the bigger version.
I’ve just bought one. During lockdown I can’t wait to use it 🙂
So you used it for the edges only? Could it do it all?
Nice! Where can I buy one?
I'm stuck between this and the Milwaukee. I like that with the mil you can exchange attachments. Edger, saw, etc. But I like the price of this one waaaaay more and I plan on going all in on mikita power tools so the battery unison would be nice.
Love the video keep up the good work!
I also have the cordless mower 36v and I'm in Love!
Bought one last year got bored and went for a sthil fs94
You forgot 2 things: On the head assy there are actually 2 nuts/washers. The heavy one and the light thin one. I think the heavy one goes in first so the flat side is facing out. The thin one follows to keep grass out of the inside of the head. Then, the head screws on counter clockwise! Then as you mentioned stick an allen wench in a side hole to hand tighten the head. Skip this step, and the head will spin off when you stop the unit.
Seriously helpful video. Couldn't decide on the 36v or 18v… All I need is this one. Thanks a lot dude!
You lost me at "stress out" the cutter.. it has one job, to cut the line…lol
Yo! You seem to respond to comments so here's a quick question from Eastern Europe, where our lawns are probably dense jungles for ya.
I usually trim with my very little brushcutter, it's a small petrol powered boy, my father bought it around 2003, it is a Stihl FS 350! I use it for trimming. Like, rarely! Knee high grass cant be done with lawnmovers especially with varying ground elevation, crapload of mole hills and in between lots of trees. Next time, when I have my own money, I want to buy an electric one (battery ofc), but Stihl's highest offering is at the "130". FSA 130. I probably could not live with what I saw most US citizens use, the FS 89, but the 130 seemed powerful when I borrowed it from a store (they allow it for regular customers), but the whole battery thing from stihl is laughably expensive. Can you check out some high-end battery brushcutters, either with trimmer line or the 3-blade tool that can do 4 inch high, very dense flora? It is such a nice place you got to live, my man. It's all grass. Most of us here, step out of the front door and we have all kinds of unknown vegetation right in our face, it is really a magic how can you guys manage such nice lawns.
Hope you can do some demonstration, or at least provide some feedback, I would really appreciate it! Good video, and best of regards.
I don't understand why you keep on bumping the cord. I have had a spool strimmer (yep that's what we all it in the UK) for years. These things are auto feeding so anytime the cord cuts, it automatically extends. This continues until the cord runs out.
Note to self. "Dont sell your Gas weed beater"
I just got this for an early Mother's Day present! Can't wait for tomorrow!!!!! This was very helpful…thanks…
I have a slightly older model. The LH or RH respooling directions were confusing. I went with LH as did you as shown in your video. How is this considered LH?

Excellent review. Thank you.
