Edger works well, quick clean cuts, very efficient. I have over 500 ft of edges to be trimmed - mostly butted up to concrete paving - which I can clip in about 20 minutes. The battery has bunches of power and allows me to weed trim, edge trim and blow clean my entire yard with less than a half charge.
That said the battery is heavy making it hard work to keep the edger upright for maximum depth of cut. The height adjustable wheel does not have enough travel to provide support at the height I need - especially for those sidewalk areas where I am standing below the cut height.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was not as easily controllable with the one wheel. I had a hard time keeping it straight on the overgrown edges.
Pros: Durable, Environmentally Safe, Powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Barely enough torque to do the job if over grown. After 1st use does ok. All parts are plastic, was not expeting lower guard to be plastic. 80v 4.0ah battery makes unit heavy and unbalanced. Smaller battery will give more control and less of a chor to handle.
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, March 25, 2026
Hello -SM-.
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback on the 80V 8" Brushless Edger. Performance in overgrown or compacted areas can require a slower, more gradual cutting approach, as edging tools are optimized for maintaining edges rather than breaking through heavily built-up material in a single pass. Making multiple shallow passes can improve results and reduce strain on the tool.
Regarding balance and handling, the 80V 4.0Ah battery does add runtime but can shift the weight distribution. Using a lower-capacity battery, such as a 2.0Ah pack, is a good approach for improving control and reducing fatigue during shorter jobs.
For durability and performance, ensuring the blade depth is properly adjusted and keeping the edge line clear of large debris or thick overgrowth before use can also help the unit operate more efficiently and minimize stress on components. We hope you will find these tips and information useful. If you ever have specific questions or concerns about our products, contact Greenworks via Live chat on our website (www.greenworkstools.com), 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.
