Greenworks 40V Cordless Strimmer for Medium Gardens, Adjustable Height, 30cm Cutting Width, Autofeed 1.65mm Nylon Line, WITHOUT 40V Battery & Charger, 3 Year Guarantee G40LT

Ordered this after buying the lawn mower from this brand and being blown away by the quality. We wanted to go wireless on all our tools, being able to use the same batteries is of course a huge plus. This strimmer represents the brand as well as the lawn mower does; really solid and strong, there is no weed too thick or resilient for this thing. It has 2 wires for cutting so it very quickly chews through weeds and grass and has never sounded like it struggled at all. It is very heavy though, I will say that. I consider myself to be above average strong for a woman, but my arms and hands were absolutely knackered after doing our garden edges. I think I need to fashion some sort of belt loop to help me hold it for the times my husband isn't home to do the strimming for me. It was very easy to assemble out of the box and I had plenty of battery left after doing the strimming.

Well made and a good value for the price. I purchased the GreenWorks blower with two 40v batteries and the pole hedge trimmer as well so the whole system works quite well together and has already paid for itself after using it several times on first month instead of paying gardener to do this job. All well made and easy to use.

I already owned the hedge cutter / chainsaw multi function device (with a 40v) so opted for this once my old streamer had become to annoying to use (which all streamers do). The machine itself isn't a light one however is balanced well on the handle points. I re-utilised my 40v battery which plugged straight in and off I went streaming. The cutting guard (which this has) saved the new planted trees and overall it did a good job. The only niggle (which is why it gets 4 stars) is the self extending cutting wire which is designed to trigger and extend itself should it ever break. I have to say, all it did for me was extend past the unit (so overpopulate the wire area) which either needs winding back or simply breaks off when starting. My workaround was to keep it running at low rpm - (light trigger press) when moving around the garden. Overal, a heavy duty trimmer which does a good job however has just the one little niggle.

Excellent. Works great

Used it for the first time and I’m really happy with its performance, Its light weight and powerful, 2Ah battery really lasted a long time, the garden edges looks really crisp for the first time. The trimmer head does not turn so you have to flip the whole trimmer to do edging (most profissional long shaft strimmers does not have the flip head feature which you will only find on short models as it would be impractical to flip the whole unit so absence of rotating head should not put you off) I’m a short person and it didn’t feel too long for me despite some comments that suggested otherwise.

This is my 3rd Greenworks tool after buying the Chainsaw and Mower. It’s great that the batteries work across all of the tools and are easily swapped around. The strimmer is easily put together and comes with 2 reels of wire so will last a while. The feed for the wire is easily managed too. Just the hedge trimmer to get now.

This is a fairly large strimmer which is designed for a replacement of a petrol engined strimmer so is sinilar dimensions and weight. It has plenty of power and with the steel cable supplied with it, it will cut through most stuff with ease. Battery life is good and charges quickly. Only gripe is the handle as it has the trigger enclosed within a a recess. Which I personally find it makes it awkward to do edges with as its bulky and in the way. (See picture) With it being aimed at personal use and not commercial, the guard is fairly large and is needed as the guard has a blade fitted to cut the line on the auto feed head. The head is not a bump feed, it works on like a ratchet time system that feeds 1cm out every dead start of the motor. So if you keep pulsing it, I assume you'll use a lot of line. Other than that, I have no issues.

Best strimmer I have ever had, absolutely brutal the way it rips through margin grass and grass on verges. The line feeds through automatically very well too meaning no stopping to feed through manually. Battery life is not sensational but is ok. A shoulder strap would make this strimmer perfect as it can start to feel slightly heavy after using for a little time, that said it is a well-balanced tool so not much strain on the arms and wrists.
