Very quiet
on December 20, 2020
Posted by: Mani

IT’s very quiet, the quietes greenworks tool. Very well balanced. Load N’ Go trimmer head only loads on one side of the thread if you use .090 line I haven’t tried .080. Also it’s kind of awkward to bump more line since you’ll over cut the grass on the spot.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello Mani,
Thank you for the review! We are happy to see you are enjoying the string trimmer.
While the unit is spinning, gently tap the bottom of the unit (knob) on the ground and the string trimmer will release approximately ¼ inch of line each time you tap it. The more often you do this the more line will be released.
Hope this helps!

Too heavy and string runs out too quickly. Not good for use as an edger.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Wags,
We are terribly sorry to hear about this experience. We strive to provide a quality product and a great customer service encounter. It's normal for the cutting line to wear down as you use it, but the trimmer line can wear faster than you expect if you're cutting tough or thick weeds, if you're cutting against hard surfaces such as rocks and walls, or if the line is spinning too fast.
To preserve cutting line when cutting thick weeds or against hard surfaces, don't crowd the trimmer head into the area you're cutting. Instead, slide the cutting head slowly toward the cutting area so you use the tip of the cutting line. And ease off on the throttle to properly control the speed of the cutting head, especially when cutting against hard surfaces.
We would be interested in hearing more about this issue. Please submit an email using the customer contact page on our website or give us a call at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS).

Love this more than my wife

Had trimmer for over 3 months now and it is still much better than my other petrol and battery trimmers. The others have features that are still work keeping them around for (split shaft/telescoping shaft), but for pure trimming this is hard to beat. This thing is powerful and runs forever.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just the right amount of power.

Bought this trimmer as I'm updating all the tools in my garage. I shopped around a lot trying to find the right voltage, since I've only owned gas machines before. I really think the 60 volt is just right. It's powerful enough to do my usual trimming but also doubles up as an edger. I've cleared some brush with it too, no problem. I can't imagine needing anymore power, and mostly use the lower speed on this machine as it is. I did run out of battery power with it a few times, but just popped in one of the other batteries from my other 60 volt tools and kept on going. I own a mower, blower, trimmer, and pressure washer. Since they're all the same voltage (60) I can swap batteries between the tools as needed, making things super convenient. Definitely consider doing the same if you're purchasing more than one tool.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This battery powered string trimmer is great. It has great balance and excellent cutting efficiency. I actually have 3 GreenWorks tools (blower, hedge cutter and string trimmer) using the 60 volt battery. Having two batteries means I never have a problem with insufficient battery capacity because of the ability to use the same battery in all the tools.
