DeWalt DCM561P1-XE 18V 5.0Ah XR Li-ion Cordless Brushless Straight Line Trimmer Combo Kit $249 @ Sydney Tools

140

Been needing a line trimmer and found this.

Cheapest it's been with battery and charger

Total tools and Bunnings have it for $279 or skin alone is $245

Could be because the new 561PBS is now out but regardless it's a good deal.

    any comment this vs Ozito trimmer kit? (https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-pxc-2-x-18v-cordless-line-…)

      that's like comparing payless shoes to branded shoes, or like a haval/great wall to a more "well known" brand

    • Agreed with comment above. I got one of these last year on a similar deal and Bunnings did a price match beating the price by 10%. Definitely a solid line trimmer with a long battery life. I normally only have to use it on "Low" speed and only use the "High" speed on really thick grass or if I'm in a rush. I haven't used the Ozito line trimmer, but have used other Ozito tools, and they don't compare to a brand like this. You won't go wrong with this DeWalt.

      • fair enough - I am genuinely asking because I have a few Ozito tools/batteries already.
        I also have DeWalt drill, which I got after I returned the Ozito drill, so yes I know what you guys mean.
        Thanks.

    • For domestic use I think Ozito is good value and exceptional value if you can buy when it's on clearance. Have their brushless 36V mower and brushless jet blower and they do a great job.

      Been thinking about getting the Ozito trimmer skin but it only has a single line and it's not brushless. But it does have bump line feed feature which is very handy and you can split the shaft into 2 parts for easy transportation. I mow a few lawns so these features are important to me.

      The kit only comes with 2Ah batteries which won't last long. Some pros and cons to consider.

      • Bump feed is very satisfying (It's on my ego)

        • And saves alot of time.

    Can confirm I pricematched this a couple months back at Bunnings.

    Happy with it so far!

  • Almost bought this yesterday, however lots of Amazon UK reviews of motor failure.

  • i have been wanting to buy a replacement line trimmer for long time, my 10+ yo 2 stroke trimmer started leaking petrol for the last 4-5 years.

    please tell me should i buy this one

    • +1

      This was my justification!

      2 stroke tools are pretty bad for the environment as well. No need to mix fuel, or spend 20 mins trying to get the bastard going!

      • should i pull the trigger i don't have any DeWalt stuff lol

        • If you're already invested in another battery system probably not, but if you're already on XR then for sure!

          • @picklewizard: too late, bought one already!

            i only have a 5+ yo cheapo ryobi drill set

            see if i can pick it up tonight

      • +1

        but the smell of 2 stroke!

  • will this cut thick long grass?

  • +3

    I went to Total Tools to pickup my online order only to find out this one is Sydney Tools. LOL

    • +2

      Lol I've done that before

  • Got 1, no stock at Preston store but shipment expected next week. Now to start collecting all the DeWalt 18v range to sit alongside my aeg"s 😚 Ive always like that yellow, nice work OP

  • Saw the same kit at Bunnings for the same price.

  • "404 Not Found We could not find the page you are looking for." :(
    Haven't been to a Bunnings store but can't seem to find anyone with this (or a similar) kit online anymore. All the online's I visited were 'skin only'…
