[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is not easy to get the string to advance. The string breaks off frequently if it touches anything harder than a thick stick. Lightweight and easy to operate. It uses very little battery.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Mandolin. We are sorry to hear the problem you are experiencing with the Greenworks 40V- String Trimmer. We would like to make some suggestions to improve your experience with the tool. Trimmer line usually breaks because of line crowding. This occurs when the trimmer head is held too close to hard objects that can break the line such as brick, cement, rocks, or fencing. Keeping the line at full extension, and not crowding it, reduces line breakage problems. We suggest cutting with the bare tip of the line because this is the section which moves at the highest speed. Do not let it hit into grass. Ease the line into vegetation, bit by bit from the edge. Line can also get wrapped around thick vegetation and become tangled, breaking the line. Listen to the sound of the machine and when the line slows down; back off out of the grass. We hope these suggestions help. If you still have questions or an unresolved issue after going through this troubleshooting guide, or just want to speak to a Greenworks product expert, please start a Live Chat on Greenworks Tools website or contact us by phone at 1-888-909-6757. We are here to help.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this trimmer in Fall ‘23 when my old gas trimmer kept stalling out. I’m amazed how quiet and lite this trimmer is to work with.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I fought this site to order some parts and finally tried MS Edge and order went through fine. On Google it hung up on the Capture security app.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this one on a sale I couldn't pass up and I'm glad I did. Battery lasts through tall grass for my 8000 square foot yard and with a quick recharge I can edge and blow to finish the job.

First and foremost, my grass has never looked healthier! The cordless mower glides effortlessly across my lawn, leaving a precise cut without any hassle. The best part? No more pesky gasoline smell in my garage!
The tools are incredibly easy to use, with ergonomic designs that make them comfortable to hold and maneuver. The self-propelled mower is a game-changer, taking the strain out of mowing my lawn.
