Our take on the Craftsman V20 20-Volt Max 13-In Straight Shaft Battery String Trimmer

The Craftsman V20 string trimmer is a straight-shaft cordless trimmer built on the V20 20-volt battery platform. It ships with two 4.0 Ah batteries and a charger, and a telescopic shaft lets you set the length. Runtime is modest for a 4.0 Ah pack, so the second battery matters for larger yards. It suits homeowners with light to moderate trimming who already own or plan to collect V20 tools. Against 18V and 40V rivals it is a middle-of-the-road option: cheaper-feeling than premium brands but easier to share batteries with other Craftsman tools.

Pros
  • Runs on the widely sold Craftsman V20 battery platform
  • Two 4.0 Ah batteries included, so you can swap and keep going
  • Telescopic straight shaft adjusts for taller and shorter users
  • Straight shaft gives better reach and control than curved-shaft designs
  • Light enough to carry one-handed for short sessions
Cons
  • Runtime is short for a 4.0 Ah battery, so big jobs need both packs
  • Straight-shaft trimmers are harder to store and transport than curved ones
  • Not a brush cutter; thick weeds and heavy growth bog it down
  • Build and bump-feed head feel less refined than premium brands

Questions and answers

Does it come with batteries and a charger?
Yes. It ships with two 4.0 Ah V20 batteries and a charger, so it is ready to use out of the box.
How long does it run on one charge?
Craftsman rates it at about 63 minutes per battery in light cutting. Real-world runtime drops in tall or wet grass, which is why two packs are included.
Can I use my other Craftsman V20 batteries in it?
Yes. It runs on any Craftsman V20 20-volt battery, so it shares packs with other V20 tools.
Is it good for edging and thick weeds?
It handles light edging along beds and fences. It is a string trimmer, not a brush cutter, so thick weeds and saplings are a struggle.
How does it compare with a curved-shaft trimmer?
The straight shaft gives more reach and control and adjusts telescopically. Curved-shaft models are usually lighter and easier to store.
What cutting width does it have?
It is a 13-inch cut, narrower than many 15-inch trimmers, which means more passes on large lawns.
