I absolutely love my 80v string trimmer. It is the my first Greenworks tool and I can not wait to purchase something else. The battery lasts as long as I do...we need a recharge at the same time! I won't share with my husband he loves to gas powered trimmer but I see the envy in his eyes when mine starts in a flash and off I go with no issues. 5 star all the way
I already had the 80V with the chainsaw and needed a new weedwhacker so I opted for the Greenworks model. So far I'm very happy with it. It's very easy to assemble out of the box and it works great. The 80V is probably a lot more than I need, but it's nice to be able to use it multiple times before having to charge again.
Very pleased with the performance, although I haven’t used it much yet. It’s fairly heavy even with the strap, so I had to stop after a bit. It tears through vegetation with ease, and it seems easier to control than my little one was.
This thing is a beast. Uses same 80v battery from lawnmower. I ordered optional strap as I knew it would be heavy. Good choice. The 80v battery is amazing. Charges fast and lasts a very long time
I bought this recently and am very happy with it so far. It has plenty of power for clearing thick weeds. The line feed isn't terribly smooth but that is a small inconvenience. Since I'm jist maintaining around my 3/4 acre, the 2.5 A bettery lasts me plenty long enough and doesnt take too long to charge. I was able to find a cheap ryobi blower attachment that worked seamlessly with the greenworks trimmer motor. The only other (very) minor detractor is that is doesn't sit upright when I set it down, it wants to lay on its side. For the price paid I am extremely satisfied with my purchase
I would recommend this to a friend!
