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.
Wonderful tool. Any electric tool I buy from now on will be Greenworks! I have several products from Greenworks and every time I am amazed at it performance. I have a gas powered and a corded edger of various brands, this out performed all! It does not care if I am using it on wet clay after a rain storm or bone dry ground, it gets the job done perfectly every time!
Outstanding Tool! Previously, I was using an edger attachment coupled with the Greenworks interchangeable motor. This dedicated tool makes things so much easier. It is much more powerful than the attachment edger. I wish I would have gotten this sooner. It cuts twice as fast.
I have used gas trimmers for years. I was pleasantly surprised by my new electric trimmer. It has already exceeded my expectations and I have since ordered and used a Greenworks chain saw. I am loving it as well. I will recommend your product line anytime. Looking to purchase a walk behind mower within the next year…******stars
This is the second Greenworks tool I’ve bought in the past three weeks. I am happy with the Pro 60v 26” hedge trimmer so the Pro 60V 16” string trimmer replaced my gas 16” trimmer which has been great over the years, but I was just tired of dealing with ethanol related fuel issues, having to drain the pre-mix so not to sit for extended periods of time. The starting and the noise also made me want to go battery power, after using this Pro 60v 16” today for the first time was so nice. It works perfectly, and I never felt the need to use power 2 at all and the variable speed worked great. The guard being wider than my old trimmer is going to take some getting used to as it restricts seeing where the line is cutting, but there is better protection from flying debris. After an hour of trimming there was no loss on the 2.5 battery. Even though it looks heavier and bulkier than my gas trimmer, it is actually lighter and easier to use. Also nice not having the volume up so high while using ear buds, compared to a gas engine. Appearance is a little weird though, I just need to get used to it. But, I’m sold on Greenworks, 60v mower is next.
