Easy to ensemble, not too heavy, cuts well, battery lasts and is easy to put in and take out, and charges in relatively short time. Overall just what I wanted.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I Gave Up

Maybe it’s me, but re-stringing this thing is impossible. I’ve watched videos, taken extra care, cursed it, and whatever else I can think of, but it’s difficult and still won’t dispense string correctly for any length of time. I have several other Greenworks tools, so hate to have to switch but I need a practical string tool, and this ain’t it.
Pros: Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Powerful
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

60V cordless string trimmer

I got this Because the site said 65 minut run time with the 2.5 AH battery. So I ordered this setup with extra 2.5 AH battery so I would be able to work a couple hours or there about. Boy I was wrong. It also stated 50 minut charge time. But that turned into over an hour. And the run time turned int 30 minuts for each battery. So eather the site lied or the testers did. It does have plenty of power.But I can not even charge 1 battery while I am useing the other because once I use the one it needs to cool before charge then charge over an hour. SSi I would Like to know how it was tested, Did your testers actually cut grass or set on their butt for 30 minuts and cut for 30?
Pros: Powerful

Hello Larry740
We are sorry to hear that you were not completely satisfied with the run time of this battery. The run time varies depending on the tool that it is being used in but also the load acting against the unit while in use along with operator technique and more. The run-time of a battery would depend on the load acting on the unit while in use (speed, terrain, unit height, grass height, and density). Please be aware that the more power being used from the string trimmer (i.e.stings trimmer speed, terrain, grass height, density, etc.), the faster the battery charge will drain. These are very rough estimates and each user's experience will be different depending on the use and condition of their batteries. The actual run time received ultimately depends on the load acting against the unit while in use along with the operator technique. We would be happy to investigate to see whether your run time would be considered average; please contact our customer helpline at 1-888-909-6757.

Features are great, but one bad point
on June 3, 2023

The only problem I've had is that the string must not have been wound properly at the factory, because one side broke off at the head fairly quickly which required removing the head, the one bad point. The head is extremely hard to remove; I had to wedge the latches open with screwdrivers to get it off. And it was impossible to get back on until I put a little grease on the inside of the case above the latch holes.
Pros: Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful

works well, but battery doesn't last long

I purchased this a few weeks ago with the 4.0 battery. It requires high power to really cut st. Augustin. Battery lasts only 30 minutes. Might have to return.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good trimmer but

Good overall, but batteries are overpriced. Would like more specs as well. HP / watts of motor? RPM?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello MoPowa
Thank you for your honest feedback! Batteries are the costliest items to manufacture and ship in any kit. Full kits including a tool, battery, and charger are priced affordably so that consumers can begin building that line of tools and move forward purchasing tool-only units. When you purchase batteries on their own, it is more notable the cost that they carry. We apologize if this is of any inconvenience to you. With no load speed you can expect 6000 / 5000 RPM. Should you have any further questions please contact us directly through chatbot on www.greenworkstools.com that will direct you to a live agent or call us on Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934
