With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance, the 18V LXT® Brushless Cordless String Trimmer Kit (XRU23XM1) is a welcome solution for landscapers. The string trimmer is ideal for precision trimming and edging. It features an efficient Makita-built brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life.

The XRU23Z features Makita’s Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT™ is a protective seal inside the tool and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita® 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

    • I like it! Worth the investment.
First time out with the Makita XRU23SMI I am pleasantly impressed. I purchased this as an upgrade/down grade to my [rather heavy] DeWalt 60 volt DCS925. The Makita is especially lightweight but with ample power and duration. The included 4.0 AH battery was at 50% after 40 minutes trimming my 1 acre residential property. Mostly lawn edging, curbings, and fence line. Most impressive is how lightweight this unit is compared to the DeWalt. On straight runs along the fence line I was able to hold the trimmer in one hand and just walk along at a reasonable pace. I have not yet installed the string guard. I’m right handed and hold the trimmer on my right side and did not experience much debris being thrown back at me. Also, it’s easier to see the line of cut without the guard while holding the trimmer vertical when edging. After about 40 minutes I never needed to advance the string that came on the trimmer. The ergonomics is OK, it’s a little front heavy whereas holding it just by the middle handle it tends to tip forward aka, not balanced, but not really a problem. The trigger and trigger lock are well matched and it’s not a problem holding the trigger lock down while using the variable speed trigger. I only used the low speed/power setting and most of the time was throttling back somewhat on the trigger. Plenty of power and RPM. Probably will never need the higher setting. For big heavy brush I’ve still got the DeWalt. Although most all of my construction and landscaping tools are on the DeWalt platform, I already own a Makita 2.0AH battery and a charger for my Makita pin nailer so I was tempted to by the “bare tool” trimmer but the cost of this “kit” was less than the bare tool plus a separate 4.0 AH battery. So the kit was the best option. No Makita rebate on this trimmer BTW. Overall I’m very pleased with this purchase. I think the Makita brand tools, although expensive, are one of the best on the market today. ... show more

    • Great cordless weed eater
I reviewed a lot of weedeaters on Amazon. This one stood out from the rest. Makita is a good brand, it didn't disappoint here. Really easy to assemble. Charged the battery for 2 hours, so it was full strength. Took outside for initial test. It was a butt kicking weedeater. My yard is average size and the battery had plenty of juice leftover. It took out the grass and gave a good deep edge on my drive and sidewalk. It doesn't eat up string, which was cool. I'd recommend it to anyone who needs a dependable hard working edger and weedeater. Well worth the little extra above the other competitors. My wife could easily handle the 12lbs it weighs as well. It has good balance from handle to cutting head. ... show more

    • Great Lightweight Household String Trimmer
PROS: Easy to assemble. Lightweight. 13” trimmer can handle most jobs. Powerful two-speed variable motor. Motor brake. Bump feed. CONS: Battery life is average. Head guard is to small-wear safety glasses and long pants because throws debris everywhere. Should buy an extra battery.

    • Very versatile, long battery life
These trimmers have adjustable speed/power levels which lets you trim in areas that are easily damaged, but can be boosted up for heavier cutting in other places. Battery life is excellent.

    • light weight string trimmer
My 76-year-old sister wanted a string trimmer like I had for trim work around her suburban yard and garden. She likes the weight and efficiency and promptly zinged one of her tomato plants. I like mine but have to admit I cut down things I wasn't aiming to trim. I really like the battery pack.

    • Smooth and powerful, but not the best ergonomic design
These Makita trimmers are the best. I have an older one and decided to get a new one so 2 of us can use them at the same time. This new one has one feature I do not like. Unlike the old one, this one has 2 speeds (old one has 3), but it also is a continuously variable speed. If you let up just slightly on the "trigger" the motor will slow down. I don't like this. I have a lot of trimming to do and it is tiring to have to keep the trigger all the way depressed all the time. Why do they put something like this on the control. It already has two distinct speeds. I see no need whatsoever of fine tuning the speed all the time while you are cutting. ... show more
