[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sometimes intimidating, putting together the string trimmer couldn’t have been any easier! Now to start trimming!
I purchased a combo trimmer/blower. The items arrived yesterday and I was thrilled to open and use them immediately. The instructions in the box included an edger, but none for the trimmer. It was easy enough to put together and I started using it. After only apx. 10 ft. of trimming the string on one side came off. I tried to download user manual from the greenworkstools website, but kept getting error messages. Finally figured out how to open the bottom and after more than an hour have not succeeded in threading the string and closing the housing again. I will return this tomorrow.
Pros: Powerful
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Recently bought the green Works 80V 2AH battery 17 inch string trimmer trimmer And although it is a little heavy, the strap really helps. So much easier than having to fool with a gas trimmer and trying to get it to start when you’re 71 years old. The only thing is, I wish the battery was more than 2AH so it could last longer.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just purchased Greenworks 80V string trimmer. It is powerful, sturdy, and quiet. Works smoothly. Glad I purchased it to replace my old 4 cycle trimmer that was so hard to start and noisy.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You’d think in 2025 for the top of the line tool you could find a QR code to shoot to register. But NOOoooopp!’ You have to get your magnifying glass out to read then type in the thousand digit* serial number and model. *exaggeration
