What Customers Are Saying
The cordless string trimmer offers impressive power and runtime, handling thick weeds and tall grass effectively. Its lightweight, well-balanced design makes it easy to use for extended periods without fatigue. The quiet operation and lack of gas/oil mixing provide a more convenient and environmentally-friendly experience. However, some users have reported issues with the string replacement process and the availability of replacement trimmer heads, which may impact long-term durability and parts support.

Would Not Recommendordered this trimmer 2 weeks ago with an estimated (per website) delivery of 4 days from time of order. When I check tracking, a new 'delayed' note appears. Three 'delayed' notices later....no trimmer, no status, plenty of weeds

Powerful Trimmer
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.

Get the best battery operated tools on the market
Would RecommendI got the new weed eater and it came with a charger and a battery so I am ready to get those grass cutting things done, just one more thing not to have to do, you guys with the honey due list know what I am talking about
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.
