I purchased the combo set 60v trimmer and blower. I am so glad I made the purchase cause this trimmer is just as powerful as my gas one. The first power setting is great but the second one is amazing. Thanks Greenworks for making good equipment that will save us money in the long run.
This trimmer is very easy to use, it’s powerful and runs for more than enough time for trimming my yard. It seems to be well made and it looks like the string will be very easy to reload. It’s a bit on the heavy side but is well balanced. I had a trimmer that had a shoulder strap to take a bit of the weight and I’m going to try and make something similar for my new Greenworks trimmer.
My old gas trimmer finally bit the dust, so I purchased this battery powered string trimmer and am so happy I did. I do not have to wear ear protection when I use this since it runs so quietly and I think this is even more powerful than my previous gas model. I was surprised at how much I was able to trim and still had plenty of battery left. I used this on the highest speed and was able to have the string trimmer run for more than 30 minutes and still had 1/2 of my battery life remaining. The battery charges from dead to full in just over an hour> I like keeping my tools organized, so was very happy I could easily hang this trimmer from a nail in my wall. Forget about gas - go battery power!
Powerful, light weight and performs exactly as described. I would highly recommend this product to any one that has had past issues with gas powered trimmers. A++
All pros would be compared to the previous GEN model. It has a Longer shaft and overall length. It has better balanced with the battery fixated vertically. The easy feed head works by inserting the string through the eyelet and then turn the knob. I manly use the low speed but on high is where it shines on 3 foot wheat growing on my second lot. The 2ah high capacity battery is enough to trim a 500 feet of bedding and concrete. I would recommend the 5ah battery if you are going to clear a full 1/4 acre lot or have a large yard. IMO I prefer the trimmer due to its longer length and easy feed head I'm 6ft on the dot and don't have to stoop over like I did with the previous GEN modle. As for durability it's a solid feeling and for longevity only time will tell.
