I have a small city corner lot. This tool last plenty long to go around the entire property. The edging feature works great! The rotation of the pole works great to give me a good angle for edging the grass next to the sidewalk.
Great trimmer for a medium sized yard. I used this trimmer to trim two yards and still haven’t used all the charge. I love the size versus the much longer trimmers, much easier to use for edging. Very happy with purchase.
At first I thought the cutting area was small and not reaching the metal guide but after reviewing the manual I noticed you can change the range at which the string is cut. Now it works great. The only real issue is that the rotating feature for edging got the head stuck in a weird position that required me trying to get it unstuck for about 15 mins. Now that it is back, it is fine.
Have used a excellent brand 2 stroke trimmer for decades. Decided to give this a try and have not been disappointed. 3/4 acre to work and the 4 AH battery has lasted fully each week. I'm impressed with the lightweight unit and it appears to be well made. Do doubt the battery will loose ability as it ages but a good choice for me. I like the ability to set it down while hand weeding as I go whereas an ICE trimmer would continue to run or have to be restated frequently.
Easy to assemble, battery lasts long enough to trim around my whole yard. Perfect trimmer for someone with a small property. Overall worth what I paid for it.
I tried to edge my sidewalk but the string only lasted a few feet before I had to “bump” the spool for more string. Greenworks needs to improve the engineering so that the string feeds itself. The only practical use of this tool for me is to trim around one tree in my yard!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
