Weedwhacker Is Good - Leaf Mover Is Great
on October 16, 2026
Posted by: Blowlikealeaf42069
from Sussex County, NJ
Gender:Male
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about 2 weeks ago now. Ive never had a leaf mover, but only just recently bought a house, and finally have leaves to move. I love every moment of it. The leaf mover is sturdy, easy to assemble, and is greater than the price I paid for it. The weedwhacker is a weedwhacker. Also easy to assemble, and its got that dangerous kind of power where you know itd hurt if you stuck your finger in the spinning wire (DONT DO THAT). The leaf mover is a less dangerous version of that fun. Should you stare it down while pulling the trigger? Nope. But if you shot the air directly into you mouth comedic hilarity would certainly ensure.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Trimmer head
on October 3, 2026
Posted by: Dietere
Perfect fit, it took a while to loosen the screw, but as it started turning, the head was coming of easy. I only added Loctite to the new head, because the existing one was gone after installation.

Short run time
on July 30, 2026
Posted by: ELOW
Gender:Male
Like the tools, blower is strong, trimmer works well especially the easy refill of line. Battery life SUCKS. I have to recharge to trimmer and we have a smaller yard, very disappointing
Pros: Quiet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, July 30, 2026
Thank you for your feedback! We are glad to hear you are pleased with the performance of both the trimmer and blower. Continuous high-demand tools like leaf blowers require significant power, which can naturally draw down a 2.5Ah battery faster during extended use. To maximize your run time per charge, we recommend using the blower on its lower power setting for general debris clearing, saving high speed or Turbo mode only for heavy piles or stubborn areas. Ensuring the battery is fully charged immediately prior to use and storing it at room temperature can also help optimize capacity. If your run time seems unexpectedly brief even on standard settings, please reach out to our Greenworks Customer Success team directly at 1-888-909-6757 or through our online support page so we can help check your battery's performance and ensure everything is running properly.

Solid tools, hard working, long lasting
on July 28, 2026
Posted by: Kenhn
from Florida
Gender:Male
I have been heavily using this trimmer/ edger for 5 years. I don't baby the tool. I use it hard clearing virgin ground along our lake. Bushes and full grown weeds. The edger attachment gets used to cut borders in and around grass and flower beds. When I am replacing some sod, I cut the edge down with this tool. Makes my jobs easier and more efficient. Tool is 60v heavy, but calms down any vibration on my hands. I use a heavier string and heavier edger blades than the tool came with. All my 60v tools get used hard and have manned up to the jobs. Thx Greenworks.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful
I would recommend this to a friend!

Needs better battery
on July 25, 2026
Posted by: TTyy
from Florida south
Gender:Male
The design is great but the battery is the Achilles heal. When it works its great. For about 10-15 minutes then the 2.5ah battery dies. Would I recommend this product yes if you only have a very small yard. anything larger you will need a bigger battery. The charge time is also a problem.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet

Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, July 27, 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are glad to hear you like the design and performance of the tool, though we understand your concern regarding runtime and charge time. Battery runtime can vary based on the specific tool model, grass height, and workload conditions. For larger yards or demanding tasks, upgrading to a higher-amp hour (Ah) battery, such as a 4.0Ah or 5.0Ah unit, can provide significantly longer runtimes and reduced downtime. We appreciate your recommendation and feedback, and if you ever need assistance finding compatible higher-capacity batteries, please feel free to reach out to our support team! They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools website, or by calling 1-888-909-6757.

Cutting head spins in wrong direction
on July 20, 2026
Posted by: LiveforChrist
Love the 23' of string this new one will hold. My old trimmer spun clockwise and threw the cutting away from you. This new one spins counterclockwise and throws the cuttings at your legs and makes it harder to cut because you are pushing the head and it is spinning against you. I don't like the rotation of the cutting head.
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, July 20, 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are glad to hear you appreciate the increased line capacity, but we understand your concerns regarding the rotation direction and how it affects usability. The rotation direction on this model is part of the design and may differ from previous units. Cutting performance and debris direction can vary depending on trimming angle, positioning, and technique. For improved control and to help direct debris away from you, we recommend adjusting your stance and trimming from right to left when possible, as well as using the guard to help deflect clippings. We understand that changes in design can take some getting used to, and we appreciate you sharing your experience. If you ever have specific questions or concerns about our products, contact Greenworks via chat on our website, call us at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS) or refer to the FAQ ask section of the tool or ask us a question, anytime.
