The hedge trimmer is my 5th Greenworks 80 volt product I've purchased over the past 3 years (lawn mower, leaf blower, snow blower, weed wacker & hedge trimmer) - All work great & have plenty of power to do their jobs - I highly recommend Greenworks products
I live in a city, so the storage of gasoline isn't convient, but using corded tools is frustrating at best. This trimmer truly has gasoline power, but with the convience of a battery. The battery also lasted longer than expected. I trimmed 12 boxwood hedges, a forsythia tree, and two holly shrubs, and only used 1/4 of the batter life. The trimmer also had the power to go through anything I threw at it, never jamming or bogging down.
