The blower is awesome. Such power! A little heavy compared to the back pack one as it is all in your hand but it works amazingly well. The variable speed is awesome as well.
The weed eater is pretty amazing too! Decently easy to use although the bump feed is sad. Wish it could use an ugly head! Nice power and easy to use! Will be telling people how great these are!

Much preferred over gas trimmer.

This is in response to my second purchase of this item. The first one is running well, but has a carbide saw blade for brush cutting.
What I like:
1. Little noise compared to gas powered
2. No pull to start
3. No gas to mix
4. Sufficient power
5. Easy to use....pop in battery and push the button.
For my usage I cannot see ever going back to a gas powered trimmer.

I am a 35 year design engineer and there are numerous things I see on Greenworks products where a few improvements could make a bid difference in the overall package.
1. The handle needs a quick clamp to quickly adjust for different usages.
2. The switch/handle area needs some ergonomic improvements.
3. I have Scoliosis so relieving any load on my back is better. Greenworks has a vest with a battery holder. I would like to a battery holder to put on at the waist.

I already had the Greenworks 80v 18in chainsaw…wow…game changer. Now ive added the 80v string trimmer and blower combo and its effective around the house and the trimmer does a commendable job on heavy weeds too! 80v lawn mower is next on my list!

I have been shopping for Battery Operated Yard Tools for several years. I knew that I did not want one that was under powered. So the 80V System was what I needed. It is hard to find 80V to 90V systems that are affordable. My previous Leaf Blower and Weedeaters used a long extension cord. It go to be a pain to drag the 100 foot extension cord around the fromt and back yard. I have used the Weedeater a lot at the local dog park. It is about 200 acres. The City Park Department does not take care of most of the trails. So I have been spending a lot of mornings trimming up and cleaning the overgrown trails. I wished the Battery lasted longer. I get about 1 hour of trimming done and I need to recharge the Battery. So I have ordered a 2nd Battery.
I also like the Leaf Blower a lot. It is so much easier to clean the driveway, back patio, and front porch not having to drag that 100 foot extension cord around.
I probably get the lawn mower but the 80V Lawn Mower is self propelled, which I do not like.
The Weedeater even handles Blackberry vines up to about the size of my little finger.
Good tools.

Defective battery!

I bought this 80V tool and battery combo. The battery was defective and would not charge. After a brief one hour and 20 minutes on hold, Greenworks has offered to ship me a replacement battery. I chose "Quiet" as a "Pro" for this product since I am not able to use it.

Hello there,
We're sorry to hear you received a defective battery. This is not an issue we want our valued customer like you to have to experience. To charge the battery ensure the slots on the charger and the rails on the batteries are aligned. Then you want to push the battery into the charger all the battery down until a full connection is made. Make sure the light flashes. If the charger lights do not come on then the connection has not been made.
We're happy to hear a replacement is being sent to you. We hope this will solve the battery issue for you and you are able to operate your unit soon.

The trimmer itself is okay. It does what it is supposed to. My complaint is with the design of the handle. Anytime I need to readjust the handle, I need to go find a phillips screwdriver. It would have been a better design to put a knob to tighten up the handle. Also, this doesn't have variable speed while other competitors offer that feature for similar price range.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
