i purchased this for myself because i cant use my husband's gas powered weed eater, it is too heavy and i cant start it. i love this it is so light weight, easy to use, had some difficulty with the edger kept breaking the string somehow. i really just use it for the trimming and would highly recommend this product.
I received the 12 replacement spools and was excited that I didn't have to respool my own. However, a quarter of the way through, once it heats up, it fuses and I am unable to finish cutting without replacing with another spool. Sort of a huge waste of a spool.
I bought for my husband..he loves it! Easy to change. Spools and so lightweight. He recently had some surgery and he was unable to mow but he could at least help by using this weedeater. Looking into maybe next buying the blower.
I have had my WORX trimmer/edger for several years now. It stills works like new. Easy to use, light weight, and I love the replacement spools for life. With regular electric trimmers the motor burns up within 2 years, you have to deal with the electric cord, and the line doesn't last nearly as long. Gas trimmers are too heavy for me to use. My WORX is so light weight, I not hurting all over from trying to hold it up. I also have the small blower. Only takes minutes to blow the grass and debris off the sidewalk and drive way. Sure beats sweeping it off. I also use it to blow dirt and debris off my patio and out of my garage.
