It's really lightweight with the 2Ah battery. And has more than enough charge for my front, back, and side yards. It was easy to setup and is a nice compliment to my Greenworks mower. I highly recommend if you are looking for a user friendly, low maintenance trimmer! It has the bump cord extender too.
Works well! Was able to install without any issues. Once I started to weed eat, I would hit the bump feed. And it would feed it right out. No short strawing one side.
This was a late season purchase for me, but I've used it twice and am very happy with the versatility of the unit. The only down side is that the thicker stem weeds do take a minute to knock over, but they are so few and far between that it's not a problem.
My new greenworks Pro 80V 16" trimmer is great. It is powerful and the battery lasts a long time. The best part is not having to deal with gas, oil, and it not starting for the first 10 pulls (on my gas trimmer).... The battery charges back to full-power quickly which is great. So far it has worked great for me.
I bought this pole saw almost a year ago. The saw cuts extremely well. The problem I have is that the safety button near the trigger will not depress. This happened within the first month of owning the saw. I worked around the problem by getting it depressed (after much wiggling and force) and duct taped it closed. It doesn't work long before the tape stretches. Obviously it is a flaw in the one I own. So frustrating!! If the safety button actually worked I would give the saw 5 stars. I see Greenworks has put this button on their other chain saws. Now I'm nervous to purchase any product with the safety button.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
