Greenworks 24V 12" Cordless String Trimmer / Edger, 2.0Ah Battery and Charger Included

Works great!!!!!! Much better than my gas trimmer. Grant it i thought it wouldn't have enough power, I was wrong. Would definitely recommend it to a friend

The worst thing about my previous weed eater was the vibration. After I got done, my left arm would shake for hours. With this weed eater, I don't have that problem. It's not as noisy, but it's just as powerful as my old weed eater. I love that, with a push of a button, I can rotate the head when I want to line the sides of my drive way. Plus, there are two wheels so that you can stay level and take the weight off you while you're doing it. When you're done, push a button and you're back to being upright. The battery is smaller than what I'm used to. However, it was plenty enough to get the job done and probably then some. I highly recommend this weed eater.

update: battery life is horrible. after 3rd cut i cannot do entire yard anymore. after running out of string, auto advance doesn't work anymore. I use 65 with so maybe that was wrong. however, this is minor because I can't remember a string trimmer, either electric or battery where the auto advance works still good as an edger. Original: I bought this item because I'm cheap so price was the number one driver as background 54 male 260 lbs. The first time I used it was a little awkward because I was used to my Sun Joe which I loved but couldn't find a new spool cover, for the second time I've used this it was much better and having it at a 30° angle was a godsend and it did such a great job, so much better than 45° angle. this has plenty of power. the string that came with it was better than expected. it's an incredible edger and will dig deep if not careful. although the wheels that come with it to help with edging set it too high for me, but that just might be personal preference. the string feed is very conservative and there are times that you need to self-advance it depending on what you're doing, but around a chain link fence. it's it's wonderful. the flower guide I think would be better if it was underneath the spool instead of on top of it for edging at least, but that's a minor minor thing. overall, this is a great buy. the battery life and charging time is respectable.

I live on a farm so everything that isn't crop is mowed and we have a huge lawn! I love this lightweight, affordable, work horse! I bought an extra battery (4.0Ah) which is my "go to" battery. I start out with it and when it loses power I use the 2.0Ah that comes with the string trimmer. I've discovered that if I start with the 4.0Ah that I can put it in the charger and use my 2.0Ah. When it is depleted my 4.0Ah is ready to go again! I get approximately 2 1/2 hours of string time! Granted, I don't often need that much trimming time, but there have been days when I do. The length of time varies according to how heavy or tough the grass/weeds are. I previously had an older model GreenWorks trimmer and didn't know that I shouldn't leave it in our unattached, unheated garage during our Iowa winter. The next spring the battery wouldn't take a charge. I looked online for a replacement battery and they no longer had that model's battery available. I had loved it so much I decided to to with another newer model. I haven't been through a winter yet, but I can assure you I won't leave the battery outside again!

The tool itself is mediocre. I have invested a good deal of money in Greenworks tools. My wife purchased this weed trimer years ago, along with a couple batteries. I figured I would utilize the batteries with other tools and began collecting several Greenworks tools and batteries. Other companies’ tools are definitely just as good or better quality and usually for less money than Greenworks items. A few months ago, I was telling my brother how I regret purchasing all my Greenworks tools because they simply are not that good and the batteries are no where near the AH that they advertise. But oh well, least they work or so I thought… Then one of the worst customer service situations I have ever experienced happened. One of my tools, that I had not owned for even a year, malfunctioned and it ended up ruining three batteries before I realized it was causing the problem with the batteries. The tool was shorting out the batteries and blowing a fuse inside the battery. The fuse itself is soldered to the BMS of the battery and there is not an easy way to change it without completely disassembling the battery including removing the spot welds on the cells themselves. One can only contact Greenworks Monday – Friday from like 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern time. No direct email for contact. One must call or do the online chat. No way I was going to sit on phone while on hold for absurdly long periods of time. I had to waste an entire lunch break trying to navigate the online chat. After a ridiculously frustrating runaround with their “Virtual” customer assistance, I was finally able to chat with an actual customer service representative. After already being thoroughly annoyed by their awful automated customer service, the representative demanded that I take a picture of the blown fuse which I could not do, as I was at work. Luckily, I did receive an email that I could finally contact Greenworks instead of their God forsaken chat. They then also demanded the model number and serial number of the tool and each of the batteries that were now ruined as well as the invoice from Amazon for the purchase. I provided the pictures, serial numbers, and model numbers (which I had already provided on their stupid online chat) and then had to wait until the next day to be informed that they would not accept the copy of the invoice because it was not the PDF version. I had to wait until I arrived home again to provide the PDF version of the invoice. By this time, it was the weekend and of course had to wait until Monday to be informed they would not be honoring the warranty. The reasoning: The invoice also listed an off-brand battery that I purchased to be used on a separate tool. I never used the off-brand battery on this particular tool as it was simply too bulky for this particular tool. They claimed that that is what caused the tool to fail. Such a load of BS. After spending literally hours compiling information and pictures and waiting days, I am notified that I simply have a defective and destructive tool and three other paper weights that used to be batteries. It would have been better if this tool simply didn’t work at the time of purchase. I could have at least returned it to Amazon. I will never buy another Greenworks tool again and I sincerely recommend everyone to avoid this garbage company altogether.

Aucune autonomie sur les 2 appareils acheter chez vous !! Le coupe bordure pas puissant ! Très déçu je n'acheterai plus votre marque. Cordialement

Ligera, Práctica y Potente

Pensé que sería menos potente pero me gustó la capacidad de corte, está ideal para mí esposa por qué no pesa.

Puissance batterie insuffisante pour du débroussaillage léger (2 Ah). La photo indique 4 ah. Batterie vide au bout de 10 minutes.

Es muy fácil de usar. Solo el tiempo de uso es menor a los 45 min, fuera de eso la recaga de la batería es muy aceptable y permite continuar con el trabajo. Me gusto.
