Which are you referring to? I only see a 10 inch for that price. The 13 inch is $158.

Thanks OP

Nice! I didn't bother to price match when I saw that I wasn't charged the QC tax with Busy Bee Tools, it would come to 2$ less total with HD and there is no stock around me and have had trouble 2 times with them shipping me Weber bbq.

I realize it's a different eco-system, but if you're considering delving into electric string trimmers and you're not already a deWalt consumer, I got the Ego 56V String trimmer this year and it's phenomenal. I've got a pretty big lot (1ish acres) with some rough areas that I trim periodically and it does the complete lot on one charge with ease. The power is AT LEAST as strong as my prior gas trimmer, and the auto-reload feature of this trimmer is simply the standard all others should be measured by.

Thanks. Totally missed that.

Ordered one for pickup!

can you use 0.095 instead of 0.08 in this trimmer?

Dewalt trimmer is not brushless? Hmm

This DeWalt trimmer is brushless. It's even written on the head.

Since there is no stock anywhere in the GTA, can you go to the store, PM and pick up?

Im personally undecided on this. I already have Dewalt batteries but also the Ryobi ecosystem for yard tools trumps Dewalts for selection. That trimmer/blower combo is tempting and I think is a good entry point for simple gardening tools.

Any comparisons to the Toro battery trimmers? I am ready to jump on this to replace my Echo gas trimmer since I have a suite of Dewalt tools, including a blower. However, I am also looking to replace my 25 yr old Honda gas mower with a Toro battery powered, when there is a deal to be had. So, the question is, do I go with this Dewalt, or wait for a deal on Toro so the mower and trimmer can share batteries?

Any reason to "upgrade" from DCST920 to this new one if you don't need to travel with it - thus hinged design is not really needed.

Thank you OP.

I sucessfully priced match at HD (online chat) the Dewalt trimmer and line for $143.10 and $15.47.

We use the flexvolt ones are they are very powerful and can different heads.

Some boys like the Milwaukee because it's not as heavy.

Except most of the Ryobi 18V yard tools are mediocre at best. I've gone through a handful of 18V ryobi yard tools since I own many batteries and always returned them cause they fail to deliver. The only decent one is the 18V brushless trimmer, which is about the same price as this dewalt. Both as tool only.
The only good 18V yard tools is the Milwaukee M18 fuel line. Otherwise you're better off with 40V +

You are better off with the Toro trimmers assuming you have the 40V or 60V batteries. The 18V tools are okay at best, and really only for those that have batteries and don't want spend more on the higher voltage line-up.
If you compare it to an echo gas trimmer, it would under-deliver in performance as a trade-off for battery tool convenience.

Thanks OP. I got the tool, deciding on the trimmer line since I know there are better than Dewalt's

However, I'd still recommend checking the Project Farm review of other trimmer lines as alternatives. The cost differences isn't that signficant considering you'd be committed to 200ft+ worth of line to use.

Cant believe nobody upvoted this. I always thought trimmer lines sucked. Putting an order for some MaxPower now

Thank you OP!
