Excellent design and powerful trimmer, eco friendly and super easy to use. The battery only holds a charge for about 30 mins. You need multiple batteries.
If you are on the fence about it switching to electric... do it. After a few uses has already proven how much better it is than my old gas Stihl trimmer. Charged it out the box in under 30 minutes was able to do my entire 1/3 acre yard with plenty of charge to spare. So much quieter, so much so that i thought it wouldn't cut through the wisteria that grows on my fence. My old stihl would stall but this went right through it without any problems. This is a sleeping giant with plenty of electric torque to boot that will shred through things my gas trimmer couldn't. So blown away. I'm glad I went with this model at 80v. Wish this was around sooner but so glad I found it. Not to mention how light it is in comparison. This is a no brainer folks. Make the switch.
I bought this trimmer after debating between a gas trimmer or electric. After a few uses I am really glad I did. It is easy to use and performs as a gas trimmer does without the mess.
I have 6 acres that I keep manicured. The trimmer has absolutely exceeded my expectations in every way. I still use my gas trimmer for thick, tough brush because it turns up higher RPMs but my weekly go to trimmer is the GW because I don’t like the noise of the gas trimmer. See the before and after pictures- all done with the string trimmer and the hedge trimmer. I was super impressed!

I use this for my yard every couple of weeks. It works pretty well. There is a small delay in pulling the trigger but after a few weeks I you forget that the delay is even there. (I think there is a delay to make it last longer by not spinning up the motor too fast.) I like the adjustable speed, it seems pretty durable, its plenty powerful, and the battery lasts pretty well. It could be a little lighter for electric but I think it's a little lighter than my gas one. I also don't have to mess with mixing gas and buying gas, plugs, and air filters. The only thing I wished was that the head rotated so I could edge a little better but that is really minor for me. One more nice thing is it is quiet. I can use it at 8 am on the weekend and don't have to worry about all the noise.
Trimmer works well and is very easy to use. I have lots of star thistle around the ranch and my trimmer stays on the quad. So far the battery has far out lasted the line. The fact that I don't have to use gasoline anymore is such a blessing. Lightweight, cuts well. NO gasoline! Great unit.
I bought this trimmer and the 18" chainsaw. I am very pleased with both products. I grab it and go with no worries about starting or gas! The trimmer works and lasts plenty long enough on my huge yard. I haven't used the chainsaw much, but have 2.75 acres to try it out. Great product and the cordless equipment has come along way the past few years.
