Product Description

See how the NST2036 measures up against other trimmers when it comes to cut rates and power output.

Black & Decker's Trimmers: Power, Precision, and Performance
Black & Decker offers a full line of electric and cordless grass trimmers with cutting paths ranging from 9 to 14 inches. Packed with power to tackle tough weeds and grass, these trimmers are low noise and do not emit fumes.

Super-Charge Your Yard with the NST2036 Cordless String Trimmer
Now the company that invented cordless yard solutions brings you the first battery-powered string trimmer that delivers the performance of gas. Just imagine the freedom that cordless convenience can bring — without the hassles of pull cords, spilled gas, tune-ups, or harmful emissions. With 36 volts of power and a newly designed, super-efficient motor that boasts a patented gear drive transmission, you’ll get all the torque you need for tough cutting with less noise and vibration than a traditional gas trimmer.

Gas vs. Electric: Black & Decker Changes the Rules
Many consumers own a gas-powered string trimmer because they don't think that electric string trimmers have the power to address their needs. But Black & Decker's 36-volt trimmer is a true breakthrough, offering the performance of a gas-powered string trimmer with the tidiness of a battery power source. This trimmer's removable high-output 36-volt NiCad battery features pro-grade cells with a total capacity of over 75 watt hours. That means it offers more than three times the energy of an 18-volt battery (as compared to HPB18-OPE 18-volt pack).

Gear drive transmission delivers power and no-stall torque for performance comparable to a gas trimmer.

Removable 36-volt battery delivers over 75 watt hours of power and is rechargeable.

Starts every time with the squeeze of a variable-speed trigger for gas-like control; lock-off button adds safety.

Rugged bump-feed head features heavy-duty .080-inch line and a 14-inch cutting path.

With a cut rate of 51 square feet per minute, this trimmer actually cuts faster than most consumer-grade gas units in recent testing. It quickly mows down your tallest weeds, giving you the power to trim along fences, houses, and landscape beds — and because it's cordless, you don't have any extension cords or wires to trip you up or tie you down.

Feature-Packed and Ready to Work
The NST2036 has a 14-inch cutting swath, which is the largest ever for a cordless string trimmer — but that's not its only claim to fame. It delivers real industry-leading performance, no-stall torque, and true efficiency for run time that will amaze and delight you, all from a battery that delivers hundreds of recharge cycles ... so it will last for years. This model easily covers even big yards with loads of trees and fences.

And in addition to all this power, the NST2036 is extremely easy to control. It has no frustrating cords to pull, but it starts every time with just a squeeze of the trigger; and this variable speed trigger allows for gas-like control, so you'll always receive just the right power for any application. A lock-off button prevents accidental starts, and the rugged bump-feed head stocks a heavy-duty dual .080-inch line. The telescoping shaft offers quick and simple height adjustment, and the auxiliary handle adjusts to various heights for comfort in all trimming positions — for users of every size.

Best of all, the NST2036 is the first trimmer in its class to receive the Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star certification for its charging system. With the NST2036 you'll save money on energy bills, and at the same time you can help prevent greenhouse gas emissions for a cleaner planet.

Customer Reviews

36 volt cordless string trimmer: The ad said it worked like a gas powered weedeater and they were telling the truth. There will be a learning curve on the trigger as it is sensitive, but doable. After reading other reviews before purchasing I went ahead and got an extra battery. The trimmer ran well over an hour without changing the battery and I think once I can control the… More reviews

CORDLESS WEEDEATER: Definately more powerful than the 18V types. The batteries only last 15-20 minutes at a time, and recharging the battery takes 8 or more hours.
Not exactly as advertised and relatively expensive for the performance. More reviews

Very Good - if you are realistic with expectations: I've had this for over a month now. First project was to clear a walkway about 100' long with severe overgrowth (vines, vegetation, tall grass) and this thing shined. It has plenty of power and I was worried about battery life so I knocked everything down and then came back and "cleaned" things up.

Excellent motor, but battery does not go the distance.: I purchased this hoping that a manufacturer had finally built a trimmer that was both powerful and had good battery life. Black & Decker got half of what I was looking for. The motor on this is as powerful as any gas model carving through thick clumps of grass from in between walkways stones with ease. The problem is that under this heavy… More reviews

Nice & Easy String Trimmer: I own a Stihl FS250 for serious work on large wooded acreage, but wanted a simple string trimmer for light to medium work that my wife (and I) could use around the house. I first bought an inexpensive 18V B&D which served only to prove that the convenience has merit, but even my wife thought it was weak and I returned it. So,… More reviews
