[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow this is so much easier than our corded one we previously had. The power it gives is spot on....so nice to see that battery operated doesn't mean less power. It is easy to get going and fairly light weight, making trimming an easier task to undertake. Battery life is sufficient for me to get the job done every time, no problem. I would highly recommend this Greenworks trimmer.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used gas-powered yard tools all my life. Due to the maintenance required and the inconvenience of mixing and stirring gas, I decided to give a battery-operated trimmer a try. My decision to try this Greenworks model was the large capacity battery and the 4-year warranty. The small amount of assembly required was simple and straightforward. The trimmer operates as well as any gas-powered unit I've ever owned. I like that it is well balanced with no strain to carry or operate and the spool is simple to reload. Plus, it's quiet to operate which means I can do early morning yard work without annoying my neighbors! I am extremely satisfied with this product and would recommend it to friends.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The trimmer is easy to set up and get started. I definitely like not being tied to a cord and operating off battery life that lasts longer than I do. It’s just a bit big and heavy for me (female) so I haven’t lost charge through my use. It is easy, powerful and convenient. Just heavy.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this Greenworks weed trimmer to go with my other Greeenworks 60volt yard tools. It is a great tool, well balanced and I have no problem doing my entire yard on one charge. I absolutely love the ease of use of this tool and all of the Greenworks line of cordless yard tools. I t is very convenient to swap batteries from tool to tool. I would not hesitate to purchase Greenworks in the future.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Greenworks Pro 16 inch string trimmer! It’s rechargeable and cordless. The fact that it doesn’t require gas is a amazing feature. It also comes with a lithium ion charger and charges up in 30 minutes. After charging it last for up to 45 minutes. Which is amazing! It’s lightweight and I think a brilliant design.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Greenworks Pro 16 in. String Trimmer with 2Ah HC Battery and Charger really exceeded my expectations of a string trimmer. It runs on a rechargable battery and it charges quite fast. The trimmer holds a long charge. The trimmer itself is a little heavy but it isn't uncomfortable to handle. The head of the trimmer could had been closer to the ground. But It is a very good trimmer still.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this trimmer. We had a gas trimmer that was heavy and difficult to use. Trimmer is light weight and the battery charge lasts enough time to trim the front and back yard. Now we can use our trimmer without affecting the environment, save money, and have a quieter experience for those early weekend mornings tending to the yard.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coming out of the box, it was easy to assemble. The battery is large, and a little bulky but that is to be expected with the voltage it has.
It is fairly lightweight, and was easy to position the handle so that the weight of the two ends balance each other nicely.
Using it in the yard, it has a similar performance as a corded, but does not seem as powerful as a gas powered - this may be simply because a gas powered accepts larger cutting twines. That being said, I was impressed by its abilities and convenience.
A couple criticisms: the shaft is a bit loose, and doesn’t feel as secure as other machines I’ve used. Also, when charging, the fan for the battery is pretty noisy, so maybe don’t charge it in the living room while watching tv like I did. ;)
Overall, a great machine that does the job it is meant to do!
