Tool works great and is pretty powerful. Fits in nicely with my 60V Pro ecosystem. I would highly recommend especially if you already have the batteries. if you don’t it’s a great good to segway into Greenworks tools and see how both environmentally conscious and easy they are ty manage and use.
Bought this to clear a path for the electric netting of my mobile electric fence. In order to keep the goats in the i have to prevent any foliage from touching the netting so the electric voltage doesn't drop. Attached the Forrester brush clearing blade and it works like a dream. So much simpler than having and maintaining a gas powered weed eater.
Coming from the 40v 14" version this has plenty of power. I like the ease of operation compared to the 40v, no buttons to push before using. My complaint is that the debris shield does not do a good job at all preventing operator from getting hit by debris.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am so glad I purchased this combo kit. I should have done it a long time ago. Excellent quality and battery life. The string trimmer gets a little heavy after 25 minutes. The blower is perfectly balanced and powerful.
There's a bit of a learning curve on this and I find the weight of the battery gets heavy to balance after awhile. I'm adding a strap which should fix this. It's not as powerful as the gas one I replaced it with but does as adequate job.
