[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only used it once but it seems to be doing the job well. Only gripe I have is how quick the battery died on me.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet
I would recommend this to a friend!

The batteries don't last!

The batteries suck. Imagine cutting your grass and 25 minutes into it, the battery does and you have to wait 30 minutes for the batteries to cool down. And then almost three hours for it to charge again. And then repeat the process again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Donald D. We are sorry to hear that the included 24V battery runtime does not meet your expectations. As we are not sure of the condition of your lawn, we are not exactly sure why the battery did not meet your expectations. The maximum runtime often applies to a flat, open yard. Slopes and obstacles require more power, and users can expect running time to be less, if this is the case. Runtime measurements are also related to the condition of the grass and if it is well-maintained. Tall, thick grass requires more power, and you must mow it slower, consuming added runtime. Here are a few tips to ensure the max runtime is achieved. Ensure you charge the battery fully before each use, maintain the battery properly by cleaning terminals, avoid extreme temperatures during storage, consider buying a second battery for larger lawns, mow in a straight line. If the grass has been left to exceed 4 inches, we advise that you raise the cutting height and cut no more than one-third of the length of grass at a time, wait a couple of days and do another one-third, cut when grass is dry and walk at steady pace to allow the blade to work more efficiently. As the lawn becomes consistently maintained you will see the cut and runtime improve. Hope these tips help! For any specific questions or concerns, feel free to contact Greenworks via Live Chat on our website www.greenworkstools.com, call us at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS), or visit the FAQ section anytime.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my very first Greenworks tool and is still my go to for trimming and hedging. I am greatful to not have to pull a crank or be concerned with an electric cord. Light weight, easy cutting and powerful.

Poor string feed
on August 20, 2025
Posted by: Reynolds Revival
from Yukon, OK
Gender:Female
Bought this hoping that the "self feed" vs "bump feed" would work better. Does not. I still have to stop, open the cap, advance the string, etc. The single battery doesn't last through my front and back yard. Tried to purchase a second battery in store but they didn't carry it.

Hello Reynolds Revival.
We are sorry to hear that your experience with the 24V 12" String Trimmer & Edger has not met your expectations. The auto-feed system is designed to advance the line automatically when the trigger is released and engaged, but if the line is not feeding properly, it may be due to how the spool is wound or if the line is stuck. Making sure the line is wound tightly and not crossed over itself can often improve performance.

Regarding runtime, the included 2.0Ah battery typically provides up to 20–30 minutes of use, depending on grass type and trimming conditions. For larger yards, many users find it helpful to keep a spare battery on hand. Additional 24V batteries are available directly through our website at www.greenworkstools.com, as well as through authorized retailers such as Amazon, Lowe’s, and Home Depot.

We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue improving our tools. If the auto-feed continues to give you trouble, please reach out to our support team so we can help troubleshoot or explore warranty options. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, accessible by clicking “Chat with an Expert” in the bottom corner of your screen, Chat with a Live Agent I Monday - Friday: 9:30am – 5pm EST or by calling 1-888-909-6757 between 9AM and 7PM EST, M-F. 9AM and 5PM EST, SAT - SUN. 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. *Hours are subject to change without notice.


Thank you for choosing Greenworks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was unsure how battery powered lawn tools would be, but I am more than satisfied with the results! My wife loves mowing and now she can whenever she wants because there's no messing around with gas or struggling to start the mower.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Effective, Powerful
