[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago for my wife- as she wanted one for our house. She ABSOLUTELY love this product. It is so easy to use and this does the job of cutting bushes and tree branches. This beats out the old fashion hand held cutters. I would highly recomend this product for anyone for yard works.

Great Extended Hedge Trimmer Meets the Mark
on August 20, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Greenworks has available their newly designed 80W 20" Cordless Pole Hedge Trimmer with 2.0Ah battery and 4A charger. The box includes the pole trimmer, detachable handle, 4A charger, 2.0Ah battery, plastic blade protector, and paperwork. The pole trimmer/battery comes with a 4-year warranty.
PROS:
-----------
* It's ready to use out of the box once the battery is fully charged.
* The brushless motor on this trimmer will typically last longer than a normal brushed motor and provide more power.
* It's not light at nearly 15 lbs; however, it's much lighter than a gas pole hedge trimmer, even when using carbon fiber extension rods that some manufacturers offer.
* The 2.0Ah battery is good enough to trim the top of 10 big bushes I have in my yard and plenty of life left when done.
* The blades are razor sharp, made of high-quality steel, and make very precise cuts.
* The motor is strong enough to slice through thick branches like butter. I don't have exact measurements of branch diameters, but basic branches were no problem at all—the trimmer sliced through them effortlessly and left everything looking clean and tidy.
* I like the way this "safety trigger" is designed. There's a small piece that has to be moved forward under the trigger before it's depressed. This is much better than having a trigger that has to be pressed by the opposite hand on the handle closest to the blades.
* With the provided 4A charger, I was able to charge the provided 2.0Ah battery from 0% to 100% in about 45 mins
* The charger can be free-standing on 4 rubber feet or mounted with 2 screws. The battery has a very snug fit, so I found it beneficial to mount it so it would be easier to remove the battery.
* The flexibility of the trimmer head being able to bend down to 90-degrees OR up at 45-degrees allows the user to cut the tops of bushes or the underside easily. The head can be clicked in place in 7 different positions.
* The pole allows for 7.5-ft extension
* The battery can be used with other 80V Greenworks tools.

CONS:
-----------
* I wish the blade protection sleeve was a thicker and tighter plastic. This sleeve falls off if the trimmer is angled downward, and it's quite flimsy as well.
* The pole length is set - it's not telescoping.

OTHER OBSERVATIONS:
-----------
* Due to the brushless motor, it doesn't have an "instant-on" feel. After you trigger it ON, it takes about a half-second to actually start which is a bit different, but something I have gotten used to.
* When the battery is charging, the charger does have a low-to-medium humming sound as the charging motor is operating.
* This blade is shorter; however the pole still makes it nearly impossible to trim smaller round bushes that are 1 to 2-ft in diameter. This pole hedge trimmer is great for cutting bushes to be flat but can cut some rounded edges depending on the angle the user is taking.

CONCLUSION:
=====================
This pole hedge trimmer makes the trimming of taller or bigger depth bushes much easier than having a regular hedge trimmer. A ladder isn't needed as often especially to trim the top of bushes flat with the adjustable head. That is a great feature that I use each time I trim my bushes. The pole trimmer isn't so heavy that I need to use a strap, but I have that option if needed. I wouldn't change a thing on this pole trimmer. It's a well though-out design but could use a better blade sleeve. Great job, Greenworks! I would buy again and highly recommend.

good first impression

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this for 1hr. Really like the long length. Cuts very well, although a bit noisey when cutting heavier branches, wished they had the long one in the 82v with metal head, I'm concerned how well it will hold up long term. Only time will tell. Otherwise it really works great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

ordered it, but-but-but > shocked to learn that never came as your stock was empty. Would consider again when the boat comes ..better model more powerful would be preferred .. hard to rate anything if I don't have your product.. Please tell the boat captain to put it in 5th gear so that the boat arrives sooner than later:::: before I will be forced to buy a competitive brand/product. as my trimming needs are just around the corner...have to do it very soon. Product must have 10' reach!
