Reviewers appreciated the long life battery, saying that it let them do their gardening tasks quickly. I live on a 700 square meter block and only trim pathways, it was going well until last week and the electric motor in the head of the unit just died. The central shaft can be extended by an additional 190mm to offer additional reach or height to suit the job at hand.

Machine Mart Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, register number 703528 and acts as a credit broker and not a lender. UnderpoweredSeems you have to have the cord no longer than 5cm for it to run when on the highest speed. Equipped with quick-fill line head (the line can be easily replaced without opening the cutting head). The company evolves constantly, fulfilling the needs of its clients, aiming for more user-friendly design and experience. We’ve always used a 2 Stoke petrol line trimmer but I’m very happy with the makita 18v cordless line trimmer easy to set up and use, lite weight no mixing fuel oil ratios no fumes perfect for small-medium jobs.

Poorly designI have just bought Makita DUR181Z from Bunnings driven by the good reputation of Makita products but in this particular case, it was a big and expensive mistake. The telescopic element is conveniently locked and released by a lever and can be adjusted from 1248mm up to 1436mm, with a 180mm rotating head, which allows the trimmer to be converted to an edger.

The Makita DUR181Z has a straight shaft, letting you complete all kinds of gardening tasks with ease. The single line head is bump feed and features a metal bump head for longer life and is easy to rewind with new trimmer cord. The machine produces 63 decibels of sound when running, making the noise level comparable to a dishwasher or traffic.

Surprisingly powerful for a single 18v battery strimmer, this perfoms well, releasing the cord effectively and operating quietly. Whether you're a professional landscaper or a DIY enthusiast, the Makita DUR193Z line trimmer is a reliable and versatile tool that will help you achieve pristine and well-manicured results every time.

Bump feed doesn't workWas surprised with the power- but the bump feed does not work, which is a real pain. With the support of the world’s largest 18V cordless system, you can be sure our outdoor equipment will get the job done and more - no petrol or cord needed. Took in for a service and was told it will not lock at full extensions (up and down) Unfortunately these are the only positions it will rotate in so after a short time it is no longer in the right position. With a built-in battery that gives you over 45 minutes of continuous runtime, this machine has the power to let you do domestic gardening without having to wait to recharge. They also liked how lightweight the whipper snipper was, saying that the shoulder strap helped improve the overall comfort and functionality of the machine.Although a century-old, Makita in terms of power tool manufacturer is relatively younger than its competition on the market. Only purchased the body only as there were two additional batteries as part of the lawnmower purchase.
