REVIEW:The advantages of a cordless electric trimmer are obvious: it's quieter than gas (and smells better); there's no cord to trip over; you can take it anywhere without having to worry about whether there's a socket nearby. Before you take the plunge, however, you should consider the downsides. First, a 12-volt battery can only provide so much power-you wouldn't want to use this trimmer for clearing an overgrown lot. Second, batteries have to be recharged; if you expect to do more than a half-an-hour's trimming at a time, you may run out of juice before the job's done. In short, this is the trimmer to buy if you think you'll be doing light to medium trimming jobs that take no more than 45 minutes to complete.

If your job meets these criteria, Troy Bilt's TB55B is really a pleasure to use. The straight shaft makes it easy to reach under shrubs and bushes, and the adjustable D-handle lets you use the unit left- or right-handed with equal comfort. At 12 volts, this trimmer will handle all but the thickest, wettest grass. Like most trimmers, this one features a bump-head release for easy, quick line feed on the fly.

The trimmer comes with the 12-volt battery and charger included. Make sure to follow the instructions for recharging in order to get the maximum life out of your battery. Two-year limited warranty.--Josh Dettweiler

 "Good for lite trimming" 2007-08-08
By Tom E. Lambert (hampton, georgia United States)
I had this trimmer for a couple years,I Just don't like trying start those gas ones ,you know pull a million times on a foot long string that has the grunt sound and almost starts and stalls,so anyway after my weed eater brand electric smoked out I asked for 1 of theses as a Fathers Day gift and tried it out.It Is good for carrying around and not having to drag out the cords , but you learn that any thick spots such as down the edge of a driveway or you know when the grass tries to grow over the sidewalk and you try get cut it back? well those really wear out this trimmer,it good for light trimming mailboxes and on the sides of the house .but it starts loosing power quick and when trimming you need that high rpm that can really get through some thick spots .this trimmer lacks that so I had to get another corded trimmer which is a monster compared to this trimmer



Also it is heavy at the top , but for ease of use it is good for small jobs ,but don't think this is like a gas powered or a corded trimmer

it simply is not

A replacement for my elderly and ailing Ryobi 150R!I tried to replace her with TWO different grass hogs but they just didn't cut it. Can only hope that now that this unit has the troy-bilt name, issues with part availability will be resolved...otherwise, it has the reach and POWER I've come to rely on in my old Ryobi to tackle two acres of nasty weeds. The 150 lives on!

 "disappointing - cheap for a reason" 2009-08-29
By A. Ohmstede (Coppell, Texas United States)
The wheel attachment broke on first use. The spool for line is small and doesn't hold much line so had to stop almost every other time I used it and respool more line. The spool broke within one season of normal use and parts do not appear to be available to replace the spool assembly in total, and the cost of the parts that are available are almost as much as the original cost of the unit. The only thing I really loved about the unit is how easy it is to convert from trimming to edging with the push of one button on the trigger assembly and knob adjust on the grip.

 "I have to give 1 star to write this review, if not this trimmer is useless" 2008-09-01
By Amazon Tribe (Cincinnati OH)
I brought this trimmer thinking it is a 0.08" line. It was trimming and edging well but when the original lines were finished and needed replacement, this was when the problem started. I used the 0.08 line and every time I started the trimmer, the lines just released without control. This problem did not resolve after I re-check the manual and repeat the steps several times. I called Troy-Bilt and the tech told me that the box and the manual were mis-printed (that was really unacceptable), the trimmer needs a 0.065 line due to the new mechanism requires the inertia of the 0.065 line (this is what he told me). I went back and brought the 0.065 line and the same problem happened again. I have had enough of it and returned it back to the store.



I have to say I am a handy guy and have put things together, including, furniture, ceiling fans, home theater, etc. This trimmer really get me working and I tried to problem solve but without a solution. If I can give no start to write this review, I will give no star, but that does not work and I have to give this trimmer 1 big star for being a low price trimmer+ edger. Don't waste money with this trimmer and look for other better model in a different brand.

 "JUNK" 2008-05-26
By M. Cartwright (Oceanside, California)
Broke in less than 5 minutes. ALL plastic. I have gone back to using out 15 year old cheapo Black & Decker unit. It has no edger to it's weed eater function like this one does, but nothing has broke either!



ONLY good part? The manufacturer refunded our money in full. Told me to just throw this one away. At least the company had a touch of class in customer service. STUNNED they would make such a horribly under engineered product however. I only made it about 5 feet edging when pieces flew everywhere.....BEWARE!

 "Strong, good cutting, fair edger, could use some improvement" 2008-03-17
By Gary C. Johansen (California)
I selected this one because it has 2 cutting strings (BIG plus) and because of the edging wheel over other brands/models. It cuts very well, but is a bit awkward for me to use (I'm left handed).



I took the little edging wheel off after a couple of uses as I felt it was more trouble than it was worth. The trimmer pivots at the trigger handle for edging; this means that you have to pull the shaft handle around before you can use it (rather than pivoting at the power head). There is a length adjustment, which I love as I'm 6'6" tall and most trimmers force me to walk bent over to use.



The main improvement this machine needs is a simpler, working string advance. At best it very flimsy. And should you have the misfortune to break a line off at the spool, well I hope you have 3 hands. You have to get the line out of the inside feed ring (which feeds from the top and bottom at the same time), through 2 holes on the spinning head (you see you need one hand to hold each string sticking out in place and the third hand can then easily feed the strings through the holes in the external head) before you push it back on the trimmer. It's pretty much a nightmare, but with practice and LOTS of patience evidently I got the swing of it.



I would have liked to give these unit 3.5 stars, for power, adjustability and that so far it's been rugged enough to stand up the uses I've put it through. But I've only given it 3 because of the really BAD line feed system.



Hope this helps.

Shame Shame Shame, Shame on you Troy-Bilt for discontinuing the TB50 Electric string trimmer, It Is obvious that you don't care about Anyone but yourself! For absolutely NO reason you discontinued the TB50 and don't feed Me that lie, "They were not selling! The TB50 was the only Electric string trimmer that could run the metal blades without burning up the Motor In Oklahoma humid tick Infested jungle. And don't give Me that, "Get a gas powered one! Do they come with a Electric starter? A Person could drop dead In Oklahoma humidity trying to start a gas powered trimmer. Around here keeping the weeds down Is not matter of looking like the Jones It Is a matter of Not getting a tick transmitted disease....
