Because I'm getting older; I dediced to transition from gas to a battery powered trimmer. I chose WORX on the recommendation from my brother. The first time I used it, I was completely amazed. Not only does it work better than my gas trimmers, the line last longer and the edger attachment is a real plus. Another plus is trimmer line for life. This is a remarkable product and, I believe, fairly priced.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Really gets the job done!

Some years ago I purchased my first battery operated string trimmer. It had an 8" cut. After tiring of dragging a cord through the yard this was a godsend. A few years later I upgraded to my first WORX trimmer (model WG155 - 20 volt - 10" cut). Put the old one to shame. (The WG155 - no longer available but similar to newer 10" models- is an excellent string trimmer and would still recommend it.) So this is my third one. Now with a 12" cut. Still uses a 20 volt battery. Difference? Well, a larger cut for one thing. This has allowed me to get through my trimming chores quicker. I do have an area where it is tough to reach with my lawn mower and using the 163 as a mini mower is where the extra 2" makes a big difference. I also have places needing to be edged but cannot use my gas powered edger. This WORX trimmer works very well for that. I did notice the 163 seems to do a better job with the edging than the WG155. Possibly because of the "Command feed" that allowed me to feed out more line as I needed it (both have the automatic feed which works well for me during normal trimming) or perhaps just the fact of the larger cut?. The shaft length can easily and quickly adjusted. In my case I am 6'1" and when it is adjusted for most of my trimming it can still be extended another 5 1/2" or shortened by 8 1/2". The handle and head are both adjustable in just seconds which I find great when I need to get under and around obstacles. Likewise, changing from trimmer to edger is only a flick of the wrist. The safety button is located such that it is easily used with either hand and it has become so automatic that I forget it is even there. I have not had this one long enough to determine how long the battery will last but I did my entire yard, trimming and edging, without losing power. Negatives? Can't find one. In my opinion certain yard tools should be cordless. So, if you are thinking about going cordless or just looking for a quality trimmer take a peek at this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first time I used it I didn't know what I was doing. But after following the instructions it was fairly easy to get it going. Works great for my front yard. I like that is cordless, definitely a plus. Not to big not to small, fits well in my garage.

Bought to do edging

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My neighbor suggested I purchased this item and I was very pleased with how light it is and easy to use. It charges really quickly and you can get started on your project. Previously edgers that I have used or any kind of weed whackers that have string are really hard to use because you have to keep Making the string come out, but this one you don’t do any of that the string comes out on its own and adjust to the project you’re working on. I did have to hold it towards the edging side because my grass had not been edged in several years, but it worked great and it was able to break down the massive amount of grass that are grown over my sidewalk with little to no effort. I would recommend this to anyone who would purchase this item.
Worx is a very nice tool. It is durable, starts every time, cost effective and stays in my possession for a long time.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great item, no rain means no grass to mow so used my new GT 3.0 to knock down the weeds that always grow even when the grass doesn't.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my trimmer going on my 3rd year. I am only getting about 10 minutes of use after a full charge. Is this normal?
