not easy to refill the spool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using this trimmer for one year. While it cuts fine, I find that replenishing the spool is not easy. The spool takes considerable effort to rewind
Pros: Effective, Powerful
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, April 29, 2026
Hello GaryT350.
Thank you for your feedback and for using the trimmer over the past year, we are glad to hear it is performing well for cutting, but we understand that rewinding the spool can be challenging. For best results, we recommend removing the spool and ensuring you are using the correct line diameter specified for your model, as thicker or incompatible line can make winding more difficult. When refilling, try to keep the line evenly tensioned and follow the directional arrows on the spool to prevent binding. It can also help to avoid overfilling, as too much line can cause resistance during installation and use. Periodically cleaning the spool housing and checking for debris can further improve ease of operation. For a step-by-step visual guide, you may find this video helpful: "String Trimmer General Maintenance - Replacing the Trimmer Line (S-Type Trimmer Head)" (https://youtu.be/-3UtaGkO0vI). We appreciate your input and hope these tips make the process easier moving forward. 909-6757. If you have exhausted all troubleshooting steps and the problem persists, contact us through on www.greenworkstools.com or call Greenworks toll-free helpline 1-888-909-6757. So, our experts can discuss your experience; please have your unit, battery and charger with you along with the model and serial number to complete troubleshooting to ensure quick resolution is provided.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall this is a great trimmer that is very well weighted and feels good to use. The string loading system is wonderful, compared to old manual style loading BUT the bump head seems to work when it wants, not when you need. If the bump head would work better this would easily be a perfect trimmer!
Pros: Convenient, Effective, Powerful
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this brushless string trimmer! It works great and gets the job done. If you have thicker brush then grass, it might not be powerful enough. But for grass it is perfect!
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Durable, Environmentally Safe
I would recommend this to a friend!

Light weight, strong and very quiet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the string trimmer a few days ago. Has enough power to handle 4' tall grass. The trimmer is super light weight and silent compared to gas powered trimmers. Only giving it 4 stars because the battery only lasts about 25 minutes. Not an hour like the description. If you have multiple 80v tools from greenworks this isn't really a problem because you can just cycle out the batteries and keep going. Overall it's a very nice product and I'm glad I bought one.
I would recommend this to a friend!
