My 80V 16" Cordless String Trimmer delivers on it's promise of durability, ease of use, available power, and quiet operation. It's actually fun to operate and delivers satisfying results. Highly recommended!

I purchased this 80 v string trimmer 3 weeks ago. wow, I do not know why I kept my gas trimmer as long as I did. this trimmer is lighter (even with 80 v battery) has the same if not greater trimming power and no Noise. I have a fairly large yard to trim and it just keeps on going. Its light, quite and very little vibration. it is a joy to use. NO FUMES from burnt oil and gas, this is the big plus, and no Hearing protection required. Thanks so much fun to use.
I would recommend this to a friend!

There is plenty of charge to trim my 1/3 acre yard. One suggestion I would make is for the directions to clearly state how much line the bump feed head holds. It is very easy to install new line. Overall, this is a great product.

Easy to use and start QUIET too and not as heavy as I feared with a battery. Cuts well and battery lasts a long time

The weed eater is very powerful. The battery charge lasted about 1/2 hour. It was very easy to insert a new string.

Bad Ergonomics; Very Heavy; Not for Small Users
on July 16, 2022
Posted by: RAWReviewer
from TN
Gender:Female
I am female, 5'4" of proper weight, very handy, and strong.
I've been using this for a few months.
PROS: Powerful, Good Battery Life. Same battery for the Greenworks lawnmower that I own (and like).
CONS: 1. Very heavy, not balanced well, awkward to use. The 80-V battery is installed at one end and it is much heavier than the trimmer head at the other end. I have adjusted the shoulder strap and handle multiple times and find this extremely heavy and awkward. Also, the trigger is too high up on the shaft for me to comfortably keep it engaged. I either end up with a strained shoulder or back or both. 2. Installing new cutting line is straightforward, but it is very hard to turn the spool cap if you have small hands.
OVERALL: This may be a good trimmer for someone who is larger. It isn't good for someone who is 5'4". I used a Black & Decker 18-V string trimmer for years. It was ergonomically fine for both myself and my friends who were taller. I do realize that an 18-V battery is much lighter than an 80-V, but the B&D string trimmer was much better balanced and more comfortable. No, it was not as powerful, but it was able to do the job.
RECOMMEND? Only to tall people.
