You need to.assemble it. The handle is not as high as I would like. The actual blade just doesn't do the job. It doesn't cut much. My opinion. It s not worth sending back. Screw it.

It works. Component quality seems pretty good. The handle is a little large in diameter and makes it uncomfortable to swing and more awkward than the ones if used in the past.

This is a pretty good weed whacker. I would say it cut most of the weeds in the back yard and its worth the money. It is quick to assemble and handy to have around when there are tall weed patches. However, I don't think it takes the place of mowing. It can cut tall grass, but to do that in the whole yard would be a tiresome project, and it can't cut the corners of the yard because you can't swing it there. I also used it on some really tall and tough weeds half my height with thick stalks that I was unable to uproot by hand, and it cut them right down. I swung it like a golf club, or sometimes one-handed like a pendulum as I walked through the yard. I think the handle is the right length because if it were any longer it would be awkward and difficult to swing (and I'm 6 feet tall). The only issue with it is the gripper tends to slide off the handle after several swings, but I just push it back on. Be careful putting it together because the blade can cut you. An Allen wrench is included, and so is a small super thin wrench, but I did not find that very useful. Anyway, it definitely works. It was even kind of fun, but the next day I had a sore shoulder from using it.

Cuts great but it should be a bit lighter. If you have lots to it will suck the life out of you after 30-45 minutes

This grass cutter is stirdy, it's easy to assemble, it does cut stuff. One issue that needs improvement is a very short handle, it can be used as is but limits your movement options and makes you bend. Just like some other people who purchased it, I had to insert a wooden handle between two metal parts, which made life much easier. I still recommend this tool because improving it is easy and it doesn't have other major issues.

Works fine, though you have to assemble it, and the big knob right in the middle of the handle is not ergonomic. I checked and tore apart the entire box looking but there was a hole in the bag of hardware they included and I was missing one of three bolts you need to assemble the handle. Had to go and hunt down a replacement at the hardware store, which was no small feat because it's a metric sized bolt, because of course it would be. Not enough of a hassle to be worth returning for a replacement, and I'm on a time crunch for yard work this week anyway, but the extra $2.50 and time wasted annoyed me.

As a reel mower user, I'm plagued by seed stalks of grass too tall and tough to get sucked into the reel. This dispatches them effectively. But it is a bit of a workout. To clip every stalk, you need to swing the tool in good, wide arcs. You can go back and forth and cut on both swing and backswing -- it sometimes takes two or three hits to really trim 'em down -- but you need to get the head of the tool pretty high at the end of each arc, around head level, if you're gonna build up enough speed to do some damage.Assembly is easy, but it'll be much easier if you have a socket set and ratchet. The nuts are too stubborn to hand-tighten, at least for me, and the wrench it comes with is as basic as they get -- tough to turn without it slipping off.

I love this thing! I'm only 5 ft and 118lb and I love using this. I can swing it back and forth and cut grass, small shrubbery, and weeds! It is simple to put together and very durable. The blades are very sharp on both sides. It is easy to grip with the foam handle, however, my grip came off rather quickly, but I was using it a lot. Simple to glue back on.

This whip comes disassembled and there are instructions rolled up in an advertisement for their other products. There are square holes in the metal that correspond to square portions on the bolts included. The tools you need to assemble this are included, but a proper box wrench and allen key would be easier to use than the cheap ones in the box.First, the blade is sharp and when I say sharp I mean sharp enough to hurt you if you don't exercise caution handling it. I recommend using gloves to assemble this product.It took about six minutes to assemble with the included tools. The blade doesn't state which side is up, but the top is the side with the serrations.This whip is heavier and sturdier than the hickory handled whip I own. The proper way to use a whip is to slightly bend at the knees and keep your back straight while swinging with objective of the blade swinging parallel to the ground. I am six-foot-four and was able to swing this with one hand, but the weight caused me to shift hands and for thicker grass I used two hands.The key is to let the whipping action and the weight of the whip do most of the work, this is not a bat and the grass a baseball. Gravity and the weight of the whip and sharp blade will do the work for you.I was able to cut a huge swarth in an overgrown lot in a little under an hour. This thing cut through grass, dandelions, weeds, and small pencil sized branched with little effort. I highly recommend this item, but be warned you will get a workout using it.

I live on 2+ acres and leave about half of that wild. County regulations require that I eliminate certain weeds. In past years I've used either hedge trimmers (kills my back) or herbicides. This tool is superior to either of these other methods. I agree that the handle could be a bit longer but I'm still able to use it without tiring my back. The blade is plenty sharp and cuts through thick weed stems with ease. It is still a bit of a workout swinging it repeatedly but I'm fine with that. Great value for the money.

It is not sharp at all, have to repeat again and again and again! I tried both side of the blade ! Very hard to use, waste of money really!
