With intuitive controls and a reputation for reliability, this kit represents excellent value for money and is highly recommended for anyone seeking a comprehensive and efficient solution to their lawn care needs.
I bought this last spring because I have several other greenworks products that do a great job. Unfortunately this 13 inch trimmer has an issue with the safety trigger mechanism. I have had to depress the safety just right for some time and often times had to cycle the battery in and out to get it work. It has quit intermittently over the last couple of months. This weekend it finally quit working. Very disappointing.
Pros: Cost-Saver

No parts are ever available. Two heads completely shatter for no reason, even the screws are cheap. Do not buy this. I couldn’t even take it apart because just using a screw driver to back out the screw completely reamed the screw and now this is unusable. Worst construction I’ve ever seen.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Works good except the battery is compatible with other Greenworks tools I own. It’s also really hard to restring
Pros: Quiet, Environmentally Safe

Hello Rugbytj,
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you like the performance of the unit and that it's compatible with your other Greenworks Tools. We're sorry you're having a hard time rewinding the string.
Here are the compatible trimmer line you can use to rewind the spool:
I got the 80V because it works with my lawnmower and hedge trimmer but I’m not sure what the real difference is. It seems a bit long and unwieldy compared the my old plug-in electric edger. The guard also prevents it from trimming effectively so I basically don’t use it. It took a little learning curve to get the desired effect on my lawn, but I had been using the same plug in edger for years. It was easy to assemble and allows you to adjust the handle, though I felt like it is so heavy from the battery the handle adjustments still didn’t feel quite right. I am giving it another chance this weekend hopefully will be easier to use. Definitely heavier than a plug in electric model but nice to no longer have to get out the extension cords! Next all I need is the battery leaf blower!
It's really lightweight with the 2Ah battery. And has more than enough charge for my front, back, and side yards. It was easy to setup and is a nice compliment to my Greenworks mower. I highly recommend if you are looking for a user friendly, low maintenance trimmer! It has the bump cord extender too.
This was a late season purchase for me, but I've used it twice and am very happy with the versatility of the unit. The only down side is that the thicker stem weeds do take a minute to knock over, but they are so few and far between that it's not a problem.
