[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being I had never used a powered edger before and I’m now 75 years old with approximately 300 linear feet of edging to maintain I decided to make my chores easier. After its first use I’m glad I made this choice. Not only did it save me time the effort was minimal although one does have to progress slowly to keep from damaging the blade by hitting the concrete sidewalk and driveway. Getting the model of edger with variable speed control helped avoid excessive issues with the concrete. I might add I used an 5+ year old battery from my mower that was dying and had been replaced. It had plenty of life in the edger. Note I had bought a 2 year old used mower 3 seasons ago and it sold me on both battery powered mowers and Greenworks.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Effective, Powerful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have to bend over because the shaft isn't long enough. Also it doesn't cut evenly like past gas edger.
Pros: Convenient, Quiet, Environmentally Safe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Battery does not charge in stated time frame of 37 minutes or so. It actually takes well over an hour! Once charged it runs out of juice fairly quickly! Perhaps 20-30 min of run time. Not happy and will return it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Paul63. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We apologize for any confusion. The battery has a charge time of approximately 75 minutes, which is listed under the product specifications.
