[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased to replace a worn out gas trimmer. Very good decision. Works great and gives me another battery for my Greenworks leaf blower.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to assemble via YouTube video. Worked great right out of the box after 10 minute assembly (quicker if you know what you're doing). A bit heavier than I expected, but certainly not unmanageable for a 50+ woman.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this, tried it I have had two other string trimmers from other brands the first on was also battery powered but it died after a while and had low power, the 2nd one was gas which worked well when it ran and it was a pain in the butt to keep the power maxed without the engine dying this one is lighter, came with more string and the shoulder strap the edger is really well weighted and the battery charges fast which was a concern I had
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the trimmer last weekend. I used it to trim the backyard and was very pleased with his performance. It made quick work of what had been a backbreaking job for me. I would highly recommend this product.
I am impressed with the design and all of the features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the trimmer on April 29, and unfortunately due to bad weather I have not been able to use it yet. However, from everything that I’ve heard and revues I’ve read on the internet it is a very reliable product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just bought it and put it together. Very easy assembly. It has a good weight. 4 year warranty so I hope it lasts longer than my last electric trimmer. Different brand.
Trimmer head doesnt feed, seems like most have this problem, no service, no parts, stay away!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this trimmer. Very powerful. Only drawback the charger fan keeps running unlike my other charger it turns off when fully charged and the deflector may be a little small. The debris flies all over the place.
