What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this trimmer for exceptional power that matches or surpasses gas models, handling thick grass and tall weeds with ease. Battery life impresses most, lasting through half-acre properties on a single charge, eliminating cord hassles. The lightweight, well-balanced design with low-vibration operation reduces physical strain significantly. Many report switching from gas equipment and never looking back. A few mention string loading can be challenging, and isolated defects occasionally occur, but overall customers consider this a worthwhile, reliable upgrade.

A beast!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this thing! It’s light but powerful. Battery is long lasting and it cuts through the toughest desert weeds here in Arizona. It has helped to keep our 5 acres looking so good!

80v 3 Piece Combo Kit

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Mower, trimmer, and blower all work great! Love the functionality and makes general yard care a breeze. Only recommendation for other customers reading this is to get a second battery as a backup just in case. Love the product though!

Poor design & workmanship on trimmer head.

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Trimmer Head works well but only last a little over one season. Bump head is too soft, it wore right through. Want to order a replacement but it is never in stock. No good to me with out a new head.

Worth the buy!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our first electric trimmer and it's got power behind the battery! The charge lasts about an hour, so plenty enough time to get what I need done in the yard. Recharging is quick and it is light weight.

Great start with my 3 PC Greenworks combo

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The combo is great!!!, congratulations for such great products...lower noise, no monoxide close to me, fast and easy. Next life, I will get the two 2 battery combo to keep doing the trimming and blowing after the moving. I took 1 hour to cool down the battery and 45 minutes to recharge and return to the yard. Also the first time I used selfpropelled and it only last 20 minutes the battery, this is not explained in the web site. The advertisemen...

Disappointed in this one

The spool on this this thing is a nightmare. It's really difficult to get it off and back on which is really a problem because the bump feed feature doesn't work most of the time, so you'll need to stop every five minutes and take apart the head to re feed the line. This is worse than my cheap 15 year old Black & Dekker that is at the end of it's life. Really disappointed in this one. I have two other Greenworks tools that are great so I assumed this one would be also but I was wrong.

Solid product

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 80v string trimmer does a great job and the battery sustains well. After buying and using this product, I purchased the hedge trimmer/pole saw combo and I am equally satisfied.
