Bought several weeks ago and used it twice to cut large trees. It does good but does not last near as long as the 8 ah battery that came with my 20 inch saw which I knew it would not. Overall pleased with battery.
Pros: Easy to Use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello erne80,
Thank you for the 5-star review! The difference between the amp hour (Ah) is runtime. The higher the Ah (amp hour) the more runtime a battery will provide. The run time varies depending on the tool that it is being used in but also the on operator technique and load acting against the unit while in use. We would be happy to investigate to see whether your run time would be considered average; please contact us directly through chatbot on www.greenworkstools.com that will direct you to a live agent or call us on Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934.

Hello Joe23,
Thank you for taking the time to share feedback about this 60V battery. We are sorry to hear of the experience you have had with the battery. The rate of degradation depends on how well the battery is maintained. There are different variables to consider giving an adequate answer. Greenworks takes as much pride in our battery and charger. The 60V platform batteries have been tested over 1000 charges. While we only work with the highest quality products, nothing is always perfect, but not to worry Greenworks lithium-ion batteries are offered with a 4- year (homeowner) limited warranty. Please contact Greenworks Customer Experience team directly through chatbot on Greenworks website that will direct you to a live agent or call Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934 for a proper evaluation.

Please be sure to have the unit and receipt/invoice handy so that we can gather all necessary unit details and complete full troubleshooting.
I’ve had my edger for about a year and it works well for the most part. My only issue with it is that it doesn’t have a guide on the front or a wheel so it chews up blades pretty fast because it uses the blade to guide it, the motor cover scrapes against the ground and sometimes the blade ends up skipping across the pavement when the blade wears down to 6 inches versus the 8 inch length it comes in. With a few tweaks this could be an awesome tool.
Pros: Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Powerful
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this a few years ago, and it's still working great! It has long lasting battery life, and tremendous power. I love that it's electric and I don't have to struggle to crank it. Such a wonderful tool!
This edger has served me well for two and a half seasons. It’s time to replace the blade now, though, and I can’t find the right kind anywhere. Very disappointing.

I own six Greenworks 60V X-Range batteries: three are 2.5AH, three are 5.0AH. I also own one 2.5 and one 5.0 that are NOT X-Range. The X-Ranges last a bit longer per charge; maybe 5 percent longer under a light load, 10 percent longer under a heavy load. They're more durable, with a higher IPX rating against dust, moisture, and vibration. I've paired four with my Greenworks app; the other two, I couldn't get to pair. I recommend going with the X-Range for the 2.5AH size, in particular. When used in my 610 CFM blower, my non-X-Range 2.5 battery cuts out as soon as I press the Turbo button. My X-Range 2.5s don't cut. I've even used my X-Range 2.5 in my 21-inch Gen 2 mower with the Turbo button or self-propelled transmission engaged, though not with both engaged at the same time. The 2.5AH cells can handle 25 amps. If you need your batteries in a tool that draws a lot of power--say, in a chainsaw, an edger, or a cultivator--think twice before buying a 3.0AH or 6.0AH battery. Those batteries use 3.0AH cells, which pass fewer amps (15, I believe) before cutting out. If my numbers are correct, here's how many watts each battery can deliver: 0810 watts (54V x 15A) 3.0AH battery 1350 watts (54V x 25A) 2.5AH X-Range battery 1620 watts (54V x 30A) 6.0AH battery 2700 watts (54V x 50A) 5.0AH X-Range battery And the 3.0AH-celled batteries, of course, lack the IPX5 rating of the X-Range batteries. On one of my X-Range 2.5s, the indicator LEDs no longer light up. Even so, the indicator bars on the tool light up when I use the "bad" battery. I'm very happy with my X-Range batteries and the now-discontinued X-Range tools. They're the main reason I went with Greenworks 60V instead of 40V or 80V.
This worked great for about 6 uses. Then the straps came apart from the frame turning it into a far less useful carry around tool. Then the corner of the tank cracked allowing the chemicals inside to leak all over me and the ground, rendering the sprayer useless and dangerous. What's worse is that I called and spoke to a rep that wanted pictures, which I attempted to provide. Their upload process did not work and the rep told me "too bad". It's a shame because I was pretty invested in the 60v ecosystem. Now I have to find a new sprayer manufacturer.
