Who it’s for
LXT owners who want a flexible, light machine that occasionally needs a blade. For sustained heavy work, step up to the 36V DUR369LZ.
Verdict
A flexible light-duty 18V brush cutter — the blade capability sets it apart in its class.
A rare 18V that takes a metal blade, so it steps beyond grass into light brush — a flexible, single-battery choice for LXT owners.
