Just as good if not better than the old gas trimmer

Verified Purchase:Yes
Has power and takes the 095 heavy line like the old gas trimmer did. Heavy line makes fast work of the grass and weeds. Battery did not run down as fast as I thought and got all trimming done on one charge. No refilling and spilling fuel - no pulling the start rope several times to start - no smelly fumes - no heat from the engine - no more hearing protection. I really like this machine.......
My gas trimmer died so I decided to switch to cordless electric. I'm glad that I did. This trimmer is powerful and I can trim and edge my entire property with plenty of battery power left. No more priming and pulling and pulling the cord hoping the trimmer will start. Pull the trigger and go!
Machine says "attachment capable" on it. But lo & behold now green works tells me its not attachment capable. Will go into trash and will buy a different brand...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello stbob,
Thank you for your review. We wish that you would have contacted us using the number or email address that can be found in your owner's manual, on the string trimmer and in a few other places that are available to our customers. If you received model (2122802) this unit is not attachment capable however if you received model (2121002) it is attachment capable design accepts attachments from multiple brands. Unfortunately, we do not recommend using brush cutters blades on our units. However, as this model (model 2121002) is attachment-capable, you can purchase a lower brush cutter attachment from another brand such as Ryobi, Poulan Pro, or TrimmerPlus! We'd appreciate the opportunity to look further into your claims and see how we may help. Please contact the Greenworks customer care team at 1-888-909-6757 and we would be glad to further discuss.
Works great BUT if you ever need a part, like bump head you will never find one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello davsant
Sorry to hear you are having a difficult time finding this replacement part! You would need to purchase the Trimmer Head Assembly, part number R0201834-00. Please contact Greenworks directly for replacement parts at 1-888-909-6757.
Heavier than my little electric trimmer, but made up for it with lots of long lasting power, capable of cutting a field that hadn’t been mowed all season.
