I upgraded from the 13” to the because of the attachment capability. It works with my 5’ Ryobi pole saw and the 3’ extension. Works with my trimmer plus edger. It takes the bigger diameter string for heavier duty cutting. I don’t like the battery mounting in the top vs the end like the 13”. It is noticeably louder. That said, the pros outweigh the cons and I am impressed and the 13” has been an afterthought since getting the 16”.
Cuts well, just small - but 13" as described; would just recommend the 16" Charges fast, able to trim my yard, neighbors yard and use the same battery to blow off the porches and driveways. Lighter than my kobalt 40v trimmer - i am typically just using one arm as a let is hang into my ditches Only reason not 5 stars - my 40V kobalt trimmer seems to have more ummph, which i wouldn't expect since this is a smaller cutting, higher voltage, torque max...
The blower is very powerful. Not sure how long the battery will last. The trimmer seems good. I have to get used to it working so well without it making a lot of noise. Overall happy.
I have owned 3 weed eaters: 40V, 60V, and 80V. All were great, but I like the 60V the most because it uses a thicker diameter string like the 80V but is easier to work with because it weighs less.
