The trigger has a significant delay before the string spins up. It is also a little short for me (I am 6’2” tall). The power is great, though. It cut through very thick grass without slowing at all. I also think the battery catch seems flimsy. I have not used the trinmer much, but the overall appearance of quality of the plastic parts is questionable.
I would still recommend this product because of the 4 year warranty. I think any design issues will manifest before the 4 year warranty expires.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This battery powered string trimmer is great. It has great balance and excellent cutting efficiency. I actually have 3 GreenWorks tools (blower, hedge cutter and string trimmer) using the 60 volt battery. Having two batteries means I never have a problem with insufficient battery capacity because of the ability to use the same battery in all the tools.
light weight, well balanced, Great precision! I absolutely love this trimmer! if there was ever a reason to do yard work it would be this trimmer in combination with my green works push mower! Can’t wait to get more products, especially easy with the interchangeable batteries!
I bought this a year ago. I wanted to use it for a while before a review. This trimmer has lived up to all my expectations from performance to a great long lasting charge.
Wasn't sure if the blower or weed eater would have enough power to do the job properly. Best tools I've bought for the money. They both have more power than the gas models that I was using. The gas tools are now obsolete.
