Our take on the BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX 12 Inch Weed Eater Cordless String Trimmer and Wheeled Edger Lawn Tool with Spool, 2.5Ah Battery and Charger Included, Lightweight, 2 Speed PowerDrive (LST522)

The BLACK+DECKER LST522 is a 12-inch cordless string trimmer that converts to a wheeled edger for sidewalks and driveways. Its PowerDrive transmission boosts torque at the line, and the two-speed switch trades power for runtime. The AFS system feeds line automatically, so you don't stop to bump the spool. It suits small to mid-size yards and anyone already on the 20V MAX battery system; against gas trimmers it is lighter and quieter but less powerful in heavy brush.

What reviewers say

Owners of the LST522 and its 20V MAX siblings generally like the light weight, the automatic line feed and the easy trim-to-edge switch. Complaints center on runtime from one battery and on the narrow cut and line feed jamming in tall, wet grass.

What people mention
  • WeightPraisedOwners say it is light enough to carry one-handed around the yard.
  • Line feedMixedThe automatic feed usually works, but some report jams or line breakage in tall, wet grass.
  • Battery runtimeCriticisedReviewers say a single 2.5Ah battery runs out before larger jobs are done.
  • Edging modePraisedThe trimmer-to-edger conversion is quick and gives clean lines along pavement.
  • Cutting widthCriticisedThe 12-inch swath means more passes than wider trimmers.
  • BuildMixedOwners find it solid for light yard work but not built for heavy brush.

About the BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX 12 Inch Weed Eater Cordless String Trimmer and Wheeled Edger Lawn Tool with Spool, 2.5Ah Battery and Charger Included, Lightweight, 2 Speed PowerDrive (LST522)

This is a 20V MAX cordless string trimmer and wheeled edger with a 12-inch cutting path. It has two speeds. Use the higher speed for tough overgrowth, or the lower speed for extra runtime while edging.

The AFS automatic feed spool advances trimmer line as you work, so there is no bumping required. PowerDrive transmission increases torque at the string to cut through dense growth. The tool converts from trimming to wheeled edging for clean lines along sidewalks and driveways.

The height and handle are adjustable. The handle has a micro-texture soft grip. The LBXR2520 extended runtime lithium battery gives 66% more runtime than standard models. The tool is part of the 20V MAX system.

Questions and answers

Can it edge sidewalks and driveways?
Yes. The trimmer converts to a wheeled edger so you can run the line along pavement edges for a clean border.
How does the two-speed control help?
High speed gives more power for dense growth; low speed stretches runtime for light trimming and edging.
Do I need to bump the head to feed line?
No. The AFS system advances line automatically while you work.
Does the battery fit other BLACK+DECKER tools?
Yes. It is part of the 20V MAX system, so the battery and charger work with other 20V MAX tools.
What comes in the box?
The trimmer/edger, a 2.5Ah 20V MAX battery, a charger, an AFS spool and a guard.
Is it good for large yards or heavy brush?
It is best for small to mid-size yards. The 12-inch cut and single battery make big properties and thick brush slow work.
