[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a number of battery and gas powered weed trimmers. I purchased the Worx because I have a large stock of compatible batteries from other tools. A number of my favorite power tools are from Worx (looking at you miter saw) but this trimmer is not on that list. Cutting power and battery life are good and the weight isn't bad, but the dual feed heads are terrible. I've tried replacement heads and hand loading the spools. Neither will produce a consistent cutting segment of more than two inches in length. I have to manually advance the two strings out to a decent cutting length. The automatic feed does nothing. The trimmer will cut for about eight seconds before a repeat hand feed is required. Needless to say, this tool doesn't get used much anymore. Thankfully, my ancient 25 dollar Ryobi is still functioning.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello There! Thank you for sharing your experience and review! We greatly appreciate your honest feedback as it gives us a better understanding of where we need to improve. When initially switching on the trimmer, a small length of line is fed out. To feed more line, stop the trimmer completely, then restart, allowing the motor to reach full speed. However, if you would like to provide us with additional feedback regarding your tool, please feel free to email us at worx-reviews@positecgroup.com and we’ll be glad to assist you. Thank you for choosing Worx tools!
