What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the powerful performance and exceptional battery life, with many completing full yard tasks on a single charge and appreciating the quiet operation compared to gas models. Users highlight the lightweight, well-balanced design and ease of use, particularly the simple startup and minimal maintenance. The compatibility with other tools using the same battery system is a major advantage. However, some customers report persistent spool and line feed issues, including jamming and difficulty reloading. Despite these drawbacks, most reviewers consider the switch from gas worthwhile and recommend the product.

IMPOSSIBLE TO INSTALL STRING

Would Not Recommend

The trimmer works great but this morning, I spent 45 minutes trying to get a new length of string into the trimmer. The manual is absolutely wrong and difficult to follow. The parts outlined in the manual don't seem to match the model of the trimmer. I have the Greenworks lawn mower, and it is great. This - with the struggle of the string - not so much. I felt like I had to turn 45 degrees south, hope that Jupiter was in transit with Orion and wait for a 5 knot wind for this thing to get ...

Poor replacement part availability

Great machine while the parts last! Trimmer spool head wears out incredibly fast and then you can't buy another one!!

Great Power

I've had this trimmer for a few months now, and i'm very impressed by how much power it has as well as great runtime. It has lasted well over an hour a few times now with power to spare. Charge time is about an hour, sometimes less. Cutting is very strong, and i've never had to use the higher output setting on it. I do recommend getting the shoulder strap like I did. The unit is a bit heavy. I would compare the electric to a gas powered trimmer as far as weight goes. Pretty similar. Definitely a...

Love it

Would Recommend

I absolutely love my trimmer. It has plenty of power and the battery last a good long time. It has 2 speed settings and I have yet to need the higher setting. The only issue I have is with the fact so called easy load head. It jammed up once and it was always a hassle when it came time to reload. It line would never pass through my as described and my hand hurt try to wind the line in as described in the manual. I put the bump head from my gas trimmer which I can reload in less than half the tim...

not easy to refill the spool

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using this trimmer for one year. While it cuts fine, I find that replenishing the spool is not easy. The spool takes considerable effort to rewind
