Love that both the Blower and Trimmer can be used almost every where. Wasn’t sure they would beat my gas powered ones but I am so pleased I will never go back to gas. Used the blower to clear dust, debris, etc out of my truck. Tons of uses. Even use it on me after I have been sanding furniture, cleaning the house or getting rid of dirt on my clothes after working in the garden. Is super great for all those places you can’t clean. Also lot lighter and I can easily take it into the roof to clear leaves. Use it to clean my gutters. Glue PVC pipe to look like a faint candy cane. Put the curved part into the gutter and my blower on thr other. It is amazing how quickly you can clean them and you don’t need to use a ladder. Used the trimmer to cut down my peonies and other perennials with tough stems.Clears the garden bed in the fall and cuts it easily for the compost pile. Cut down my garden work by 1/2 as I did this and lots more by hand. Love them both.
Love the power and how quiet it is. The dual feed line is also a great feature. The battery seems to last for quite a long time. My only complaint is that it's heavier than I thought it would be... although it still isn't very heavy. The weight seems balanced as well.
60V has plenty of power to trim all the area I need it to. This is the 2nd trimmer I have bought in the last two years. I really liked the first one but the plastic head cap broke and I couldn't get a replacement part and I needed to trim my lawn. The 2nd one is somewhat heavier but has good power
Amazing trimmer, wasn't sure if it would be able to hold up to my old Milwaukee gas trimmer, but it does! Same performance, 10% of the noise and I have a guilt free conscious knowing I'm not burning gas!
Works great, until you have a problem with the spool or need to replace it. That is the most frustrating system I have ever seen in a weed eater by far. That alone makes me hate this product, and wish I had got something else. And I'm not giving more than 1 star to a product that I want to replace in under a year

Hello babatort,
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We apologize for any trouble you have encountered and appreciate your feedback on this matter. It is possible that the trimmer head just needs to be worked in, as this should be able to be completed by hand. This string trimmer head has been designed for very quick and efficient reload while being easy to rewind. We understand that for some new customers this task may seem overwhelming/difficult but once they do it a few times it’s quite easy – as easy as replacing a spool. It’s also cheaper and more convenient for customers to rewind the trimmer head because they can use any generic .080” trimmer line and save money on more costly replacement spools. Here is a video to demonstrate how it works! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cN7AWcI9wvY If you are experiencing issues with reloading the string, we would be happy to see how we can help!
