What Customers Are Saying
The Kobalt cordless string trimmer offers a powerful 80V brushless motor that can handle thick weeds and tall grass effectively, comparable to gas-powered models. It features a long-lasting 2.5Ah battery with quick recharging, providing over an hour of runtime. The lightweight and well-balanced design is easy to maneuver, though some users find it a bit heavy. The trimmer operates quietly and offers adjustable handle and two speed settings for good control and flexibility. However, some users struggled with restringing the trimmer head, and there are concerns about the availability of replacement parts and long-term durability.

Would RecommendI have several Kobalt 80V garden tools and added this trimmer to my collection. It is well balanced and easy to se. I am impressed with how powerful it is. I used it for an hour and the battery was still going.

Expensive Junk
Would Not RecommendThe spool popped off, and an eyelet got lost. You can't buy just that part. The head doesnt come off easily, but if you get it off, you can't buy a replacement. I went to Lowe's, helped get the head off, but the replacement heads will NOT work.
Works as expected
Would RecommendThe string goes a little quickly and it’s heavy but it works great!

Weed eater
This weed eater works very good. The only complaint is the battery life on setting 2… I have bought a 5amp battery to replace the 2.5 amp that comes with it.

Trimmer shaft is loose after attaching
Would Not RecommendJust opened and assembled the trimmer and the shaft is loose where it connects. I tightened the front screw to lock and the shaft wiggles. I can see a gap around the shaft after inserted. My old kobalt trimmer wasn't loose.
