Easy to use and no gas! Battery last long and trimmer has more than enough power. I bought the 80v version so my blower, trimmer and my next purchase, lawn mower, can use the same battery. Big fan.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased a blower and weedeater about three months ago and use them regularly. They have lots of power and good battery life. I would highly recommend.

The Greenworks Trimmer is amazing! It has great power and is very effective. The only thing that I wish it had was a strap as it is heavy to carry around.

I like almost everything about this unit. Works well with my attachments. The only two things I don't care for are that I have a really big yard and I can't trim it all on one charge. If I get a second battery down the road, that won't be a problem. Second, I wish they would design the trigger so that it felt more like a gas trimmer when you pull it instead of having that long delay to get going. You get used to it after a while. Other than that, this thing is super quiet and works great!

The trimmer is a solid built. It would have been a 5 star if they have a lock-down system for the trigger-start after the trimmer started spinning. Because they don't have this lock-down system. It is very tiring on the hand constantly holding on the trigger-start while trimming. It would also been very helpful to list all attachments in the booklet that this trimmer could handle. But don't have this information. Left me in the dark, and I had to get the information from else where.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Quiet, works great, shield is cracked after 3 uses but I'll probably plate it. Battery life is great unlike the chainsaw.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The combo pack is great value and was an easy way to get into the 80 volt system. I find the blower to be faultless and powerful, while the trimmer is powerful it is utterly frustrating.
The string advance mechanism on the trimmer is finicky and prone to sticking. Dirt gets into it and the advance button wedges into the head and no string advances. To reset the mechanism, I have to take the string spool apart and unwedge the button. This happens roughly every fifth string advance. I am finding it to be a major annoyance. I really wish this was designed better. Maybe the model that accepts attachments is of a better design. Unfortunately for me I think this trimmer is built to last and I will be waiting and enduring frustration for a long time before I have to replace it. Which btw I see no way to replace the cutting mechanism. So this is not the most versatile or repairable model.
Greenworks, is there a fix or so you have advice regarding this?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
