My old trimmer broke down a few weeks ago. I had switched from a battery trimmer years ago to a 2-cycle one. At the time, battery powered yard tools were quite inferior to their gas and oil counterparts. Well, that 2-cycle finally bit the dust.
I went across the street to see if I could borrow my neighbors trimmer to clean up the rest of my yard, as I had a lot to trim. I was apprehensive at first when I saw she had this battery powered trimmer, as I am with a lot of battery powered tools like this, but that apprehension didn't last long.
Once I started using this thing, I was sold.
I manically went behind my house and found a plethora of stuff to cut down, whilst cackling like an idiot, just because I wanted to see what this thing was really capable of.
Once I collected myself and finished cleaning up my yard, I returned the trimmer to my neighbor, thanked her, and promptly went inside and told my spouse I was going to spend some money. I immediately ordered the trimmer.
It's been working like a dream.
In the last few weeks since my trimmer purchase, I purchased some attachments for the trimmer, a chainsaw, & I have a mower en route to my house at this moment.
I'm sold on Greenworks. Well done.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love using my new 80 volt String Trimmer. Just as powerful as my old gas trimmer.

Good performance, horrible restring process

While it's running, the unit does a good job of powering through common weed and grasss chores. However, once you run out of line, you have to remove the spool from the bump mechanism and head and they only provide a fully filled replacement spool. It's not as simple as most of the other trimmers out there, which allow you to respool while the cartridge is still attached. This one is borderline infuriating. Hopefully Greenworks will put this dinosaur out to pasture and get with the times. String changes or adds shouldn't require more than 5 seconds, no aligning and holding stuff together like a contortionist.

Hello Xyrium,
Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the performance of this string trimmer! We have a variety of string trimmer heads, all newer models come with our Load n' Go head which does not have to be removed for rewinding. Unfortunately, we do regret to inform you that older models cannot be updated to this style of the head though. Should you ever require assistance with reloading the current spool, please feel welcome to contact us at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS), and our team would be happy to walk you through this!

Superior to my old gas trimmer in every way. No more pulling the cord a dozen time to have it fire up, no fluid leaks. Push the button down and you’re good to go. Cuts everything down too. Went through very thick weeks on 1/3 of an acre with no effort. Should have switched to electric a long time ago.

Fits better than the original. Seems a little more sturdier.

Needed a replacement spool cover for the 80v weedwhacker. Website was easy to navigate. Found what i needed and im so glad because it was a brand new item. The cover fell off and my super chewing rottie destroyed it.
