Our take on the Milwaukee 2828-21E M18 Brushless String Trimmer Kit with 16 in. Cutting Swath and Easy Load Head (6.0Ah Battery)

The Milwaukee 2828-21E is a cordless string trimmer built on the M18 battery platform. Its brushless motor delivers up to 1.39 HP and 6,200 RPM, and the cutting swath adjusts from 14 to 16 inches. The Easy Load head holds 25 ft. of line and reloads in under 30 seconds. It suits homeowners and pros already on M18 who want gas-like power without a cord, and it competes with other 18V brushless trimmers on power and battery ecosystem rather than on light weight.
