[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm in shock how powerful this is for being a battery instead of gas. The battery lasted doing my entire yard which isn't small. It was extremely well made and heavy I love the fact I can buy other stuff that will fit on it. The assembly was very easy to understand which is definitely a bonus for me. It came with a charger that charged quickly. You can adjust the handle for your comfort and the string is strong I didn't have to replace any broken strings so far. I was always hesitant on anything battery operated but this has exceeded my expectations. This will be from now on the product I will purchase attachments from.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered right after I received the email on the new 40 volt Share I also had the Worx Gt and still use my 56 Volt trimmer. This new 40 volt wow what power.. when I go back to my 56 volt its like is something wrong no... just not as powerful as the 40 volt .Love Love love the 40 volt trimmer my only complaint is the battery I think it should come with the 6ah battery as I can't complete my full yard without a battery change on the 40 volt trimmer and I can complete my yard and edge with the 56 volt without a battery change

10 star trimmer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the last trimmer I will need to buy. Had ordered an Echo gas trimmer for about the same price. It took to long to ship so I canceled it and bought this one. This trimmer is actually better than any gas trimmer that I have ever owned including my broken Echo gas trimmer. This is the best trimmer I have ever purchased & used. Do not buy a trimmer without trying this one.

This Nitro weedwhacker is amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cant get over how strong this is.. and tge fact that it has a bump head to release the string, and is a double string.. the battery life on this is rather nice, and with the eco setting you can get some extra time. I'm happy to say I can take care of my whole yard, fence line, trees and some other lawn art and still have 2 bars of life left.. granted it isn't designed for commercial use, but as a home owner it's great.. and then there are extra attachments for it as well.. and the hedge trimmer is pretty cool and handy as well..

Powerful Weed Trimmer
on April 29, 2021
Posted by: Meggars
from Pa.
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Worx Nitro trimmer is powerful and get's the work done. It's lightweight and works off two 20v Lithium ion batteries that attach at the same time giving you 40v, the batteries have a gauge indicator showing how much charge each battery has left, when the batteries are attached to trimmer the gauge shows you how much combined power is left. Both batteries sit on the dual charger which comes with the trimmer, a green light indicates fully charged. I found out it's power and noticed that I didn't have to use the full power to get my weeds cut. It uses a .095 inch trimmer line with a cutting diameter of 15". Comes with a throw back guard to help with objects being thown back at you. You're able to add other Worx yard attachments to this which is a great. I love doing my yard work and Worx has made it easier for me!

Heavy Duty Gas-Like trimmer
on April 27, 2021
Posted by: beltline

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Initially wasn’t sure what to expect since I’ve never owned a high-end trimmer like the 40v Worx Nitro. It did not disappoint as this is easily far more powerful than any trimmer I have ever owned. It comes with (2) 20v batteries that attach at the same time giving you 40v. Each battery has its own gauge so you can see how much battery life is left. When attached the trimmer than also has another gauge to let you know how much combined battery life is left. I haven’t owned any battery that did that, so I thought that was a nice enhancement as I have just been charging after each use with my previous trimmer which is most likely going to shorten the life of those batteries. I don’t believe the battery’s come pre-charged since both had no lights after taking them out of the box. At first I was like man how long is it going to take to charge both of these one at a time, but this comes with a dual charger! Of course, then I was like is this going to take 6-8 hours to charge them both but within 2 hours both were fully charged. Could have been less as I wasn’t monitoring them. I’m not sure if this is an upgraded fast charger or not but it definitely charged faster than my older 20v batteries which I do have a fast charger for. When taking this bad boy for a test drive the first thing I noticed is it’s way more powerful than my old trimmer. I’m not talking a small upgrade here – this was a huge upgrade in power than my older trimmer. The speed adjustment is very similar to gas trimmers and I found myself not using the full-on power most the time. It did come in handy for those thick weeds that had grown a couple feet along the fence line. My old trimmer used to struggle with those, and I would have to keep going back and forth to get those clipped. This thing did it in one pass – it’s a beast. It uses a .095 inch trimmer line which is inline with it’s power. I have a small yard but was able to do it twice so far and not have to charge yet. I’ve also cut down my trimmer time about 30-40% from using my old trimmer since both my edging and trimming are much quicker now as I only have to make one pass. I haven’t owned this lone enough to speak to longevity, but I can say the build quality does feel more heavy duty than my old trimmers. Definitely feels more high-end than any of the older trimmers I have owned. My only complaint is when trying to attach the trimmer shaft to the motor shaft the shafts would not come together to allow the little push button to pop thru. After trying for about 30 minutes and making sure the 2 shafts were aligned correctly, I finally just used my weight to pull the shaft together placing the motor-side down on the ground. I referenced the manual multiple times but it’s lacking. Unfortunately, this scratched up the motor side pretty bad but it’s a yard tool and would eventually end up that way – lol.
PROS:
Gas Like Power – this is a beast
Battery life indicators
Dual Charger
Very heavy duty craftmanship
Multiple other attachments can be used

Neutral:
Heavier than normal low-end battery trimmers. Weight is closer to equivalent gas trimmers with gas. Not a big deal.

CONS:
Manual could be better
Issues attaching the shafts together but that could have been user error.

Great weed trimmer

from Edgewood, MD

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is as powerful as a gas trimmer with more benefits. Its lightweight comfortable to use. Has bump string dispenser for sting on the go and all the different attachments that you can get for this one product make it the most versatile trimmer on the market. This will be the only trimmer i use from now on.
