About Greenworks 12-Inch 40V Cordless String Trimmer
Overall Feedback:
87% positive
81% found it easy to carry
The trimmer weighs about the same as my small gas trimmer but is a lot cleaner and doesn't put off fumes.
Despite having a massive battery, the trimmer is lightweight and easy to maneuver.
69% liked the quiet operation, but 31% found it loud
I can wear sports headphones while trimming as the noise level is not too loud.
I compared the noise level of this trimmer with a gas trimmer and found that it is not as good as a good gas trimmer.
I have noticed that the guard is not wide enough and the string trimmer knife sits at a bad angle, which creates additional noise.

69% found the multiple speed settings beneficial
I can reach areas on my property that cannot be reached with a corded trimmer using this great trimmer.
I can quickly get through normal lawn tasks with this trimmer's powerful motor.
76% praised the impressive battery life, but 24% didn't praise
I suggest buying a bigger battery that costs $80 and lasts up to 45 minutes, as the included battery is small and only lasts 20 minutes.
I have spare batteries and they last for around 30-40 minutes, so I can switch them out as needed.
The trimmer's battery has a 20 minute life span, which may not be sufficient for large areas.
I tried charging the battery for 24 hours but it didn't work. I'll have to buy another battery which costs over 80.00.
82% found it easy to use, but 18% raised concerns
The product works great, but I find it hard to use without the ability to shorten the pole.
Opening the string head is very difficult.
I find the orientation of the trigger a bit awkward and it forces me to bend my wrist uncomfortably to get good control of the trigger. This could be a potential problem for those who use this trimmer for extended periods of time.
