Works well and light weight. We got the tool only because we have the twin battery 60v mower, and it barely uses a whole battery when mowing the lawn. Doesn't really matter anyhow because I noticed the charge times are surprisingly fast. How fast? I'm not sure because every time I go back to check it's progress it's fully charged. I'm going to have to check sooner to get an idea of charge times. LOL
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love the Brushless String Trimmer. I can take it anywhere on my 3 acres and don't have to worry about running out of cord. Cuts through heavy grass, weeds and reloading cutting string is a breeze.

Works well. Very Quiet! Standard string not durable enough for edging around stonescaping. Will be installing thicker string when the std stuff runs out.

The quick load feature and shoulder strap are great improvements over my previous 60v trimmer.

Pro 60V 16" Brushless String Trimmer w/ 2.5 Ah Bat

I spent quite a bit of time trying to find the balance of cost and performance of a battery-powered string trimmer, and I'm very pleased with my selection! The Pro 60V option with 2.5 Ah battery from Greenworks provides enough runtime and power to meet my needs. I trim about 500 linear feet of lawn about once per week, and edge about 250 feet of that same area. I always run the trimmer on the faster of the 2 speed settings, and I'm still left with 1 bar of 4 on the battery afterwards. I don't worry about running out of juice, and not having to stop and wait for a recharge while I'm already out sweating in the yard is SO nice!
My only complaint is small, but when orienting the trimmer for edge work, having the motor in the trimmer head doesn't feel as balanced as when using it for trim work. Maybe I just need to find a different way to hold the trimmer so that it doesn't "feel" as heavy when edging, but that's the price paid for a device where the motor is in the trimmer head instead of up in the handle with the battery.

Operates as promised. Works flawlessly. Great battery life allows completion of trimming without interruption. The same is true of a mower by Greenworks previously purchased.

Good tool brand, sketchy batteries

I bought the trimmer last year and used it once. Threw the battery on the charger after using it and unplugged it once it said it was charged. Next time I tried to use the battery, it wouldn't work, and placing it back on the charger if just flashes as defective (blinking red) Since I didn't register for the warranty as soon as I bought it, and no longer have my receipt I am out of luck and cannot make a claim on the battery despite being within the 4 year window. My only saving grace is that I already owned a greenworks mower and have a battery from that, but that just means I have to charge the battery more often to get the job done and it's the heavy duty battery so I need to lug around a heavier trimmer now...

The 60V string trimmer is the 5th Greenworks 60V yard tool I have purchased since 2019,and have really loved each one. I have accumulated 3 batteries (and chargers) now, one each of 5ah, 2.5ah and a 2.0ah. They all function well in each tool and always have enough charge to finish any task. I also have a Greenworks electric (corded) power washer that works like a champ as well. After decades of gas powered yard equipment, I can honestly say that I will never go back. I have a large 1.5 acre property and still have a zero turn radius gas mower but when that gives up on me I will definitely be turning to Greenworks for their new battery operated zero turn radius rider.
