Powerful Weed trimmer
on May 19, 2026
Posted by: Ours2001
from Monmouth,Illinois
Gender:Female
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the first battery powered trimmer we’ve had. My husband was skeptical but turns out he really likes it. I’ve heard him tell several people about it and how powerful it is. He does wish the guard was larger.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Durable, Effective, Powerful
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointed with bump line advance not working
on May 19, 2026
Posted by: Perleymj
from San Antonio TX
Gender:Female
Verified Purchase:Yes
This trimmer is well powered but the bump line advance does not work. Every time I need new line I have to stop and advance it by hand. For those of you with arthritis, be aware that this is a heavy tool!
Pros: Environmentally Safe, Powerful
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Perleymj.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear you are satisfied with the power of the trimmer, but we understand how frustrating it can be when the bump feed is not advancing as expected. Here are a few things to check: ensure the line is wound correctly and not overfilled, as this can prevent proper advancement; confirm you are using the recommended line diameter for your model; and check that the spool and cap are securely installed and free of debris. Lightly tapping the head on a firm surface while at full speed (not on soft grass) can also help the bump mechanism engage properly. If the issue continues, the spool or bump knob may need inspection or replacement. For additional guidance, you can view this helpful video on proper line loading and operation: (https://youtu.be/2eiGIXXzx2w); (https://youtu.be/SBN2hTJDeuQ). If you need further assistance, Greenworks Customer Success would be happy to help. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, or by calling 1-888-909-6757. We also appreciate your note regarding the weight, as comfort and usability are important considerations.

I made a big mistake to buy a second string trimmer and the head wore out in less than string after four reload replacement of the strings. It is next to impossible to get a replacement which is critical for use of the string trimmer. My mistake to get a second string trimmer - I finally learned not to ever buy a greenworks product.
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, May 19, 2026
We are sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating it is when a key component wears out quickly and is difficult to replace. For troubleshooting, we recommend checking that the correct line diameter is being used for your model and that the spool is not overfilled, as this can put excess strain on the trimmer head and accelerate wear. It’s also helpful to avoid frequent contact with hard surfaces like concrete or fencing, as this can cause premature damage to the head assembly. Ensuring the head is properly installed and tightened can also help improve durability during use.
Regarding the S-Type Trimmer Head Assembly (SKU R0207422-00), we understand how important this part is for continued operation. While it is currently unavailable, we recommend selecting the "Notify Me" option to receive an alert once the item becomes available and continuing to check for restock updates or reaching out to support to confirm compatible replacement options or alternatives that may work with your unit. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, or by calling 1-888-909-6757.
We appreciate you sharing this feedback, as it helps us improve both product durability and parts availability moving forward.

CHARGER

Gender:Male
Verified Purchase:Yes
IT DOES NOT WORK. Only the battery charger, the battery appears to be good
Pros: Durable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, May 19, 2026
We are sorry to hear that the battery would not charge, as that can certainly impact your experience with the blower. To help troubleshoot, we recommend first ensuring the battery is fully seated in the charger and that the charger is plugged into a working outlet. Check the charger indicator lights for any flashing patterns, as these can signal temperature-related delays or charging issues. If the battery was stored in a very cold or hot environment, allow it to return to room temperature before attempting to charge again. It can also help to remove and reinsert the battery a few times to ensure proper contact. If the battery still does not respond on the charger after these steps, it may indicate an issue within the battery pack itself, and we recommend reaching out to Greenworks success for assistance. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, or by calling 1-888-909-6757.

This head assembly lasted for less than a year. Inferior product. Been sold out for way too long. Duped again into buying something electric from a startup.

Thank you for your feedback, and we are sorry to hear about your experience with the trimmer head assembly. We understand how frustrating it can be when a component does not last as expected and is difficult to replace. For troubleshooting, we recommend first checking the trimmer head for any debris buildup, cracks, or excessive wear that may have developed over time, as heavy use or contact with hard surfaces can accelerate wear on these components. It’s also helpful to confirm the correct line diameter is being used and that the line is not overfilled, as this can place added stress on the assembly and impact longevity. Ensuring the head is securely attached and not cross-threaded can also prevent premature wear.
We apologize, the part is currently unavailable online. We are working to make this item available for convenient online purchase and will update our website as soon as it is back in stock. In the meantime, please select the "Notify Me" option to receive an alert once the item becomes available. We hope you will find this information useful. If you require any additional support or have questions regarding a product, we recommend trying our Q&A section on products' page or Chat with us direct on our website or call 1-888-909-6757. We are here to help.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We decided to give up our gas powered blower. Difficult to start. This Grenworks blower is a monster! I bought the 80 volt blower/ Line trimmer combo. I really like the power! The 80 volt battery is a litle heavy, but thr tol is balanced well. Im very hapy with thr purchase!
I would recommend this to a friend!
