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.

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.

WOULD be 5 stars... if I could get parts

I generally LOVE this trimmer. It has done well with all the attachments I previously had for my gas trimmer, aside from the blower attachment. Hedge, edger, pole-saw, tiller... work great. My only problem is that the listed part for the spool cover (aka "bump knob") is "34108178A" in the manual - but NOBODY carries it (and it isn't even listed in Greenworks' parts directory. Therefore - it's life as a string trimmer is about to come to an abrupt halt :(

This model is pretty good. My yard is taken care of easily, with much fuss. I have 2 batteries and that enoiugh for 5000sq ft. The only issue I had was with the trimmer head spool cap, eventually it got damaged. I was able to purchase another and I'm back up and running.
(The trimmer head assembly is item number:31110836
