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.
I would recommend this to a friend!

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.

Capable, quiet tool - battery enters on one side which makes the whole thing want to lean over and a pain to have to keep upright
Annoying because the non-attachment-capable one goes directly in the center-rear and is probably a lot nicer to handle. It’s not as though there is a huge range of attachments that makes this worth it - I probably would have chosen the other one if I had known
I use the 5Ah battery which probably doesn’t help but why buy another battery when one does my whole yard in both the mower and strimmer?
Love the 80V range btw !
