Capable, quiet tool - battery enters on one side which makes the whole thing want to lean over and a pain to have to keep upright Annoying because the non-attachment-capable one goes directly in the center-rear and is probably a lot nicer to handle. It’s not as though there is a huge range of attachments that makes this worth it - I probably would have chosen the other one if I had known I use the 5Ah battery which probably doesn’t help but why buy another battery when one does my whole yard in both the mower and strimmer? Love the 80V range btw !

Trimmer needs to offer a roller attachment to help with trimming edges rather then having to hold steady to meet objective of straight edges

The 2A battery has plenty juice for all my trimming needs. The only con is that the string length you can load is short for a double string trimmer, but it's easy enough to reload. It will cover all your trimming needs and can be used for some light duty edging.

trimmer is equal to the gas trimmer that it replaced without the expense of repairs and breakdowns.

The 80V battery is quite heavy so learning how to balance the trimmer while trying to cut evenly takes some time to get used to. The trigger action is a bit different but by the 2nd or 3rd use, I got used it and was able to control the speed pretty much the way I desired. It's a bit heavy for a long work job but for small lawns it's great. My only concern is that it doesn't come with proper instructions on how to put the trimmer together out of the box. When I first started the trimmer, the bottom part fell off and flew out. I had to figure out how to put it back together myself.

Where can I find a replacement spool for this model?

Pros: Gets the job done! Well made, powerful and I can share the battery with my Greenworks lawnmover and blower (both of which I love). Cons: It is quite heavy, if it wasn't for the strap which I wear across my chest, I wouldn't be able to use it for long. And the other con, the string rolls do not last long. I have only used it weekly for a month, and already I am looking online for replacement spools.
