Great trimmer
Great battery life and trims great, would have given a 5 but the string is hard to see while in use leading to some collateral damage. I would, however, recommend this trimmer it works great.

String Trimmer with 4.0 Ah battery
Would RecommendGreat Power, love the features. The 4.0 battery running almost non-stop on high power will run about 65 minutes. Disappointing.
Lots of power!
Would RecommendJust got stand after 2 uses I am extremely pleased. The power is far better than my the Kobalt string trimmer that this replaced. I have not tried the auto load yet. The Line IQ works great. It is very powerful and has cut time off my yard work. The runtime on the battery seems to be very good. When I am done after 40 minutes it still has juice left.

Ego weedwhacker
Finally wore out my cheap weedwhacker and needed a new one. Was impressed by what I read about Ego and decided to invest. Seems well built, easy to assemble and use. And even though this review process uses AI to prompt me on key words, I’ll reserve judgement about quality for later.
