The BLACK+DECKER GL9035 is a capable 900W corded trimmer whose party trick is a 180° pivoting head — flip it and you’re edging cleanly along paths and borders. The 35 cm cut clears a lawn quickly.
Who it’s for
Homeowners with a small-to-medium lawn near a socket who want tidy trimming and easy edging. It’s a grass tool, not a brush cutter — for brambles, go blade or petrol.
Verdict
A powerful, great-value corded trimmer and edger — hard to beat for lawn tidy-up near power.
A powerful, well-priced corded trimmer that edges beautifully thanks to its pivoting head — grass-only, but excellent at it.
BLACK+DECKER GL9035 — frequently asked questions
What is the pivoting head for?
The head rotates 180° so you can switch instantly between horizontal grass trimming and vertical edge-cutting along paths and borders, without repositioning the tool.
Can the GL9035 take a metal blade?
No — it's a nylon-line grass trimmer, so it can't tackle brambles or dense brush. For those you need a blade-equipped machine.
