Lightweight but effective
I have only used this strimmer 3 times so these are initial comments. Fairly easy to assemble though the diagrammatics are not totally explicit. Lightweight and easy to use. Battery life is as stated – two batteries are useful if you have a large garden. Not the most robust bit of kit but manages lawn edges easily – haven’t used it for any heavy duty work. Not bad for the price.
Strims well
Excellent bit of kit that fits the batteries of other worx equipment. Bought this to match the lawn mower and has plenty of power. Works much better than the old 240v one that’s been replaced with this. Did a decent sized rear lawn edge (130sqm) and a small front garden with hardly any battery use. I used the same battery to then add onto the mower with the second one to mow both lawns without it going flat. Haven’t tried the edge function yet as I haven’t got any need for it. Nice and light as well and easy to move about.

.30min battery life, which actually if pretty good as I was using it mainly as a mowe
Just got this yesterday, quick delivery, fairly basic to put together..battery takes 3hrs to charge. Took it to my fair sized allotment and did a bit of mowing. Battery lasts aprox .30mins of constant strimming, which is sufficient for a cordless. Very grateful

Great little strimme
Great little strimmer, easy to use… only comment against is can get this sent to Ireland, but replacement spools ..no! Got around it but a bit silly. Appears robust and good battery charge.

Great strimme
This is a great garden tool. The charge lasts long enough to do my whole lawn – the edge runs to about 40metres. I like that the Worx battery is interchangeable, it can be used with the drill I own. Simple to use. The only part I am not impressed with is changing it from edging to a flat cut. It’s not easy to do and always feels like it is reluctant to move and may break.

Excelle
Well it’s super light and seems to be of excellent quality. On one battery it manages to easily do the jobs I needs. I have also used it on larger more serious trimming jobs down my lane and it held up surprising well as did the battery
Registratio
Allotment use and garden. Finding it difficult to register the product, so I have wasted time finding a UK registration site and this has meant the 3 year warranty has expired, I think I will only get 2 years. I tried continuously within the 30 day time period – it takes you to the USA site so doesn’t work. I’ve emailed Europe customer services and waiting on a reply.
Great Strimmer. Not too heavy, easy to control and good deal with the extra batteries.
Good strimmer. Getting 2 batteries with it makes it a great deal especially if you own other Worx products. Fine on grass and light brambles but obviously doesn’t cope with the really thick stuff. Easily as powerful as any mains powered strimmer I have ever owned. Recommended.
Excellent grass trimmer.
I’ve got a few Worx battery operated tools which are great so thought I’d give the strimmer a try. I can say this great for strimming and edging a reasonably sized garden and the battery lasts more than enough. It’s actually very powerful as well. No more having to run an extension lead to do the edges. Excellent.

Worx cordless grass strime
Works fine. My petrol strimmer became just too heavy for me. Takes 3 fully charged batteries to strim all my garden. Batteries last 20 minutes at most (Comment said battery lasts 30 minutes…probably stroking cat instead of strimming). Handle in totally the wrong place. Head keeps “twisting” as extendable section was always too loose & wouldn’t lock in position.

Lightweigh
Seems to be a good strong item that’s lightweight, with no lead to trip over it makes it a good solutio
Makes Strimming Easy
A good little product. Light and easy to use with adjustable head angles. The only downside is that the battery doesn’t last long enough to do all the edges. I should have bought 2 batteries and you will need both to do a medium sized garden.
Happy
Pritty easy to use just needs getting used to edge trimmer a bit awkward but thatight because I’m a lefty
But definitely happy have a few tools of this make now have not been disappointed yet keep up the good work.

Good produc
It is good grass trimmer. lightweight and easy to use.. the only problems I had that couldn’t fully connect two parts , but in the end done it somehow..
And also battery run out really quick, so I will order more powerful spare battery.
Pleased overall
I’ve used this several times and generally am pleased with it. Changing from edging mode to strimmer is still tricky and could be made easier. Good not having to manoeuvre cables round the garden – two batteries is very useful.
ot for hard work
in order for it to please you need a good battery . It is not great for grass and bushes and to maintain cleanliness.
Excellent produc
Simply the best tool I have bought in years. I bought it primarily for strumming but I use it mostly for edging. It gives a clean tidy cut on straight and curved edges. It’s very quick and light to use and the line is kept at the ideal length automatically. The battery lasts a good 30 mins which is enough for a substantial garden.
Very effective edge trimme
Wish that I’d bought one of these a long time ago. Using edging shears around my lawns takes a good 45 – 50 minutes and it’s a really tedious job. The Worx grass trimmer / edger has cut this time down to under 15 minutes with ease. It takes practice to use it accurately – especially on curves, but I think you would expect that. It’s nicely balanced and very light. It’s also adjustable which makes it ideal for people of differing heights. My only gripe is that the spools of cord don’t last long. I would recommend getting a supply in if / when you buy this. Otherwise highly recommended.
No more back-breaking use of edging shears. Yay!
This makes edging the lawn a breeze. So much quicker and easier than using back-breaking edging shears. I would buy this again and I would recommend it to friends and family
Three improvements I’d make are 1] change the wheel design to enable their use when strimming flat. It’s too easy to scalp the lawn without a height gauge. 2] An arrow in white on the guard so that you can see where the cutting line is in edging mode. Otherwise it’s easy to get off line and cut deep gouges into your lawn. 3] Battery life could do with being longer.
I have no problem with rotating the head from edging to flat, so other reviewers may have tighter versions than mine.
Great trimme
I love this little grass trimmer i never used one but have the same make mower which is brilliant and had trimmed the edges by hand it was wonderful so easy to use looking forward to the grass to grow and i can use it again.I only have small garden but I had let go wild for the insects and bees but it worked a treat regards Linda
Nice and ligh
Runs well, struggles a bit on thicker stuff like tall nettles and established weeds but for general lawn trimming and keeping weeds down before they get too big it is ideal. Two batteries mean I can use it on my allotment too. The cord seems to be lasting extremely well, not noticed any significant wear as yet. Had Worx products before and been satisfied with them as well.
Impressive
I wanted a cordless strimmer and this one had good reviews. I used it on long grass by fences and then as an edger. It took a while to get used to the exact position of the cutting line for edging but it produces impressive results and the wheels make all the difference. Make sure your path/patio is clear of stones or they will knock the edger off the straight line you require! I now use it each time I mow the lawn for edging and every few weeks for grass against the fence line as it cuts shorter than my mower. The battery life is about 20 mins and the line doesn’t snap easily. Wish I had bought it sooner.
Excellent lightweight strimme
Works very well. Easy to use, lightweight and good battery life. If you need to attack the likes of extensive thick brambles, you might need a powerful petrol job, but this unit is very capable of most strimming jobs. The interchangeable Worx batteries are a real boon too. Thumbs up from me.
Good buy
Appears to be a good buy but delivered item not as described. Sold as a 2amp hour battery but sent with a 1.5 amp hou
Works well for Us
As not heavy use gardeners, the infrequent tidy up type gardener this is ideal for what we do. Its lightweight and robust enough for what we do and has worked great so far. Its got through some fairly heavy stuff and cleared some fairly overgrown areas. Battery life seems to be ok too.

Ideal for a quick strim
My only disappointment was that it feels weak at the handle. You can feel the 2 half’s twist as you wave the strimmer to and fro.
I like the battery and charger size, concept and build.
The 1.6mm cutting plastic is strong and should last a while.
A brilliant, powerful strimme
This was my first try at a cordless trimmer/strimmer – and I am wondering why it took me so long to make the jump. Very pleased indeed with this piece of kit. Good quality throughout – sturdy but lightweight. Easy to manipulate in various positions and so far has proved really effective in dealing with both “easy” trimming round lawn edges, and also in clearing more uneven, wild areas of the garden. Having two batteries is great, recharge times are short, and I haven’t yet experienced a battery running out, even when dealing with fairly large lawns with some difficult to reach areas. Just great.
Lightweight, powerful and easy to use
Great bit of kit which I bought to supplement the strimming that I do in our large garden using my two stroke Stihl.
It’s lightweight but powerful and I use it to do the more frequent strimming needed around the paths and planters.
Handy that it comes with two batteries and it has a proper plastic cord dispensing spool.
I’ll definitely be looking at more Worx ki
I have the WG169E which got wet and was not working. I ordered this WG163E as it has the very handy edging function. It came with 2x 2AH batteries which cost 30 each to buy separately at the moment. Thus the strimmer cost just 10 effectively !. I needed more batteries as I have many worx tools and after a year of heavy use many batteries have less life from the memory fade usual on repeated charges. I am please to say my WG 169E dried out and now works well again. I do prefer the 169 because: changing the cutting angle involve rotating a simple switch and adjusting by hand whereas the 163 need to be clamped with your foot on the blade cover and pulled with considerable force, like another reviewer I was fearful I would snap the cover, the 169 also ha s a sieve switch to change from edger trimmer which is a very positive bayonet type movement and foxes the 90 degree rotation, the 163 you just rotate the extendable shaft and it is tricky to get a true 90 degree angle.the extender switch in the handle of the 169 is far simpler and quicker than the cuff tightener on the shaft of the 163, finally the 169 feels lighter. Happy with the deal and general performance of the 163 which is comparable to the 169 but prefer the refinements of the 169.
Great looking product, good construction and the moveable parts click solidly into place.
The adjustable length and variable angle of the shaft handle mean that the carrying and usage angle should be customisable for most people.
Impressed with the battery life – I’d recommend getting the box with 2 batteries included; no brainer when it’s almost the same price.
I have an irregular 1/3 of an acre, mostly lad to lawn with lots of edges.
When I first received the package, I plugged one of the batteries into charge. 4 hours later still showed charging but was really keen to have a go, and that battery lasted half hr- approx half of the garden.
Charged both batteries overnight and managed to do the other half of garden the following day using 1 battery.
The single cutting cord works really well and I have witnessed no slippage. The command feed works like a charm (not that I’ve had to use it much).
Overall, very pleased, and drastically better than the old Flymo one I used to use (and managed to burn out the motor).
This is an excellent replacement for me.
The only minor niggle is the angle adjustment for the cutting head – it feels too tough to move and there is no button to press. You just have to force it.
Battery information incorrec
The strimmer works ok but be aware that mine was supplied with a 1.5 Ah battery and not 2.0 Ah as advertised. This means that it will not last as long before a recharge is needed. Other than that the operation is fine.
Lightweight and Powerful
Very easy to use, lightweight and quite powerful, I have only a small area to strim so no problem with battery life, only problem the line did not seem to self feed and I needed to manually stop working and feed more line out, otherwise would recommend.

hat it does as described
did not find it easy to put together but maybe thats just me i am in my 80s, but it cut the grass and works well battery did not last as long as i thought it would but might be just first use, overall its a strimmer thats all i expected not bad for the price
Better than Expected
This strimmer does a great job at our allotment. The battery lasts longer than i thought it would, and it copes with pretty thick grass OK, obviously if you’re looking to cut back real dense undergrowth then you’ll probably want a petrol brushcutter. We are now looking to get more Worx tools in future to save money on the batteries
Being cable free is excellent without the expense of a petrol engine. It’s great for simple garden work, dont expect to cut acres of 4 foot long grass. I got about 40 minutes of nearly continuous use out of this. The only thing I dont like is the way you have to adjust the head angle. It tells you to lay it flat and hold it down with your foot and the just force it in the direction you want, doing this works but feels wrong everytime, feels like its gonna snap. They could have put a better mechanism for that. Apart from that I’m very happy with it.

Lawn edging made easy
This is one of the best tools I have bought in a long time. It is a powerful tool with the 18 v battery and a joy to use with out being hampered by a mains cord. Turned on it’s side and using the wheels it glides quickly around the lawn and cuts a really neat edge and is especially good at trimming the lawn along the patio which is difficult to do with shears. It came with 2 batteries but after 6 weeks the 1st is still going strong. As with all strimmers the cord wears fairly quickly but the auto feed system works well. Suggest buying extra cord at the point of purchase.
Easy to set-up & use, light weight, batteries each last around 20 minutes. Works well for simple lawn edging, both horizontally & vertically. But surprisingly good at tougher requirements – we have a public footpath at the side of our estate, which was very overgrown & difficult for me & particularly our dog to negotiate for our walks. Using the WORX WG 163E I cut down around 100 metres of overgrown grasses, fern, even brambles to clear a path for easier access, exhausting both batteries, photo attached – the WORX did well for this task, of course taking more effort & longer than a petrol strimmer, but for a light weight cordless I was pleasantly surprised at how well it did.
This is a cracking strimmer. Comes mostly assembled with just a couple of bits to fit. Instructions a bit of a pain, just pictures, but OK. Strimmer strims well, light to carry, quite quiet, easy to clean afterwards, battery lasts ages even on the long stuff I was making it do. Remarkably good value for money, especially considering it comes with 2 batteries (& a charger) – the batteries cost at least 30 each to buy separately. Bought this because I already have a Worx lawn mower & the batteries can be used on both.
Excellent machine, but the spools are terrible
The spools seize about half way through and seem to,be welded together. Not usable thereafter. Emailed the company some weeks ago, but not even had a reply. A great pity as it is an excellent machine.
Great bit of ki
Quick delivery, fit the wheel (if required), charge the battery and ready to go.
Lightweight, very easy to use and battery lasts for ages.
It does struggle in very long grass, but is perfect for tidying up edges.
The instructions aren’t the best and the cutting head angle is adjusted by ‘snapping’ it into position which takes a bit of getting used to.
Otherwise superb.
Just what we were looking fo
Nice to be able to go where you want not tied by electric cable
Good results with both strimming and edging. The only draw back with this grass trimmer is that to change form strimming to edging, is that the head is very hard stiff to change you think that you will brake it but it works

Superb Produc
I love this strimmer- I have 4 batteries but can do my medium sized backyard (cutting all the grass not just edges) on two batteries. It’s lovely and light, but also robust. The design is excellent and the cord very strong in fact I have used it several times and only used up a few centimetres of it. Worx products continue to impress me! Very good for my mom too who is 70 and still likes to garden.
Perfect accompaniment to their battery mowe
Bought this to compliment the battery mower works also sell. I use one of the mower batteries to strim the edge of the lawn then put both batteries in the mower to mow, batteries easily last for the whole lot with one power light remaining on both at the end.
This strimmer is very light and manouverable. It is very convienent to grab out the shed pop the battery in and walk to wherever you want to strim, no messing around with leads and extension cords.
This is a light duty strimmer perfect for grass and the odd clump of weeds in a boarder, not designed for hacking through lots of thick brush.
My garden is small but challenging with assorted tough woodland weeds invading all year round. My previous strimmers – all well respected makes – have been frustrating to use – broken lines, lines not feeding, etc., and have ultimately died in service. I already have a Worx drill, which I love, so only had to buy the machine. It took a little over 5 minutes to clear the patch which blew the motor on the last strimmer, and the line remained at working length all the way through. The battery was fully charged again within 10 minutes after use.
A major plus with the cordless is that I can grab it and go. Not having to get the extension lead out of the garage and fiddle about with the lead is a big motivator and time saver.
The instruction booklet leaves much to be desired, and I recommend watching one of the videos available online for assembly and use.

Battery recharging Issues
My battery came with a partial charge – one green light bar showed on pressing the red indicator button to the right.
We are told in the instructions to fully charge the battery before first use.
No explanation is given.
My battery will not charge beyond the lowest level (of three bars) is it therefore faulty and should I seek a replacement?
The strimmer is pretty nifty but I thought Li-ion batteries do not suffer from a memory effect, so why is it refusing to charge fully?
Be brave
Great machine, I just love the wheels which make a difficult operation in edging the lawn very easy leading to a great cut. My one reservation, and its every time I use it is in changing the angle of the head from edging to strimmer-I have to put my foot on the cover and lift the handle sharply with a fair amount of force-I am terrified that something is going to break- It might just be me and there is an easier way which I have not found Only reason it doesn’t get 5 stars
Portable and light weight.
Made light work on my Allotment as long as I had a spare battery, just what was needed rather then messing around with petrol and oil mixture for a much heavier strimmer. Fits all my needs as it’s so portable, plug and play so to speak. Excellent tool.

Worth i
This tool lets me do a job I normally have to do in little chunks (not ideal with a petrol strimmer) because I have got thankfully latent tennis elbow. Extremely light I need to hold underhand on the pole not handle as I’m quite tall but it’s amazing I don’t feel so useless and have to wait for a man to come along. I would recommend these battery powered tools I also have the mower and hedge cutter they are powerful enough and I can weald all of them. Got my eye on the chainsaw 🙂
WORX WG163E.1 18V 20V MAX Cordless Grass Trimme
Wow – what a great unit … I already had another device, but needed a strimmer to clean the storage location where we keep our caravan, it was either a petrol device, which are expensive and the have the worry of leaking petrol etc. …. or battery… This unit is fantastic, just a powerful as an electric (mains powered unit) – Great price, Great Performance, thoroughly recommend.

I have quite a large garden which I cut mainly with a sit on, except for the twiddly bits. The twiddly bits have got larger over the years and although I have a petrol driven strimmer, for a 5ft 2 in woman it has always been quite heavy to use. This Worx Strimmer does the job beautifully. I was concerned that it would not be strong enough to cope, but it more than copes. It sailed through overgrown nettles, trimmed flower bed edges and cut bits I’d have normally had to use my electric mower to tackle. It’s light, having two batteries, one in and one charging makes a lot of difference as well. So light, easy to assemble, easy to use, very happy.
An excellent tool. Easy to assemble and use. Battery last over 30mins by which time I’m ready for a break. The cutting line hasn’t broken once and I used it on quite a variety of grasses. Highly recommend, it’s taken all the hassle out of strimming. Puck it up, plug the battery in and away you go.
Worth the money
Arrived promptly
Cheap price
Works a treat
Well worth the money. Batteries last plenty of time to do the edge of both front n back gardens on one battery. Spare battery will come in handy. Will probably buy more Worx ki
Just the job
Decided to buy this baterry powered one after having three petrol powered ones at 150 each over the last two years that kept breaking. Gave it a go today up the allotment and it’s just the job it lasts about half hour on one charge so ill likely get another battery.But it cuts through meduim to light rough grass and weeds very well and its really light weight after being used to heavy petrol ones so im over the moon with it.
5 star from me.

So easy & quick to use!
I’m a big fan of Worx cordless tools – I now have the Jawsaw, Hydroshot & hedgetrimmer, and love them all. I have several batteries, & just swap over if one dies whilst being used. I feel they are safe, being cordless, and are just so much simpler to use. I find I use them more often, as with other tools I can’t be bothered to untangle & plug in a cable, then watch as it destroys my flowers as it trails over them etc – with Worx, you just pick up & go.
Seems to work ok
Angle of strimmer head very tight very difficult to make head level. I’m 5 foot 9 extending shafts to full length still too short for me
The usual Worx quality and build. Excellent.
Chomped through 10″ grass without struggling at all, lightweight and good battery life, the unit is built to the usual high quality of the Worx brand that I expect and obviously the battery can be used in any of their tools. Vibration is minimal and cord feed works perfectly.
I’m not the most enthusiastic gardener and don’t want to spend much time on maintaining it. However, I do like a mown lawn.
I bought a Worx cordless lawnmower because I was tired of using my corded one and having to move the cable around to avoid cutting it (I did actually do this and had to fix it – no joke). That has saved me a lot of time but it did not do the edges.
I was delighted to learn that Worx made a whole range of appliances and that they all used the same power supply. I have now purchased this strimmer and am amazed how much cheaper it is buying without a power supply than it is with one.
It has been used once and did the job very quickly and efficiently. It is easy to use and it is lightweight. Regarding battery life, I have no complaints. Some have commented that it is not very long but for my purposes of a quick strim round my front and back gardens after initial mowing, it is more than adequate.
So I’m happy with it.
Good value
Wasn’t sure whether this would do the job but it does. Easy to use and lightweight. Haven’t run out of charge as yet as it easily keeps charge for the time I need to use it. It hasn’t run out having used it for a 40m x 2m grass run, so 80 sq metres in total. Works for me for what I need.
Only used my new strimmer once so far but already impressed. Easy for my non practical husband to assemble and adjustable handle half way down makes it so much easier for me to hold it and use. I’m a 5ft 2 female. The wire in it has been hardy so far. I’m not gentle with tools and have been blasting it over my rockery obliterating weeds and in between my garden plants strimming after this weed sprouting weather. It’s been cutting everything and the place looks much tidier. Was at it for a while and the initial battery was still going strong. Hopefully it holds up to more. Seems sturdy and of good quality.
I’m not a gardener, don’t like gardening in fact, and I am looking after a big garden just now. This has really helped with my workload and helped the garden look neater.
How did I manage without it? Well, the garden never looked this neat before!
A spare battery (one in use and the other on charge) means I can complete the task in one session.
As I have the Worx power tools I already have 4 of the batteries so taking that into account this was a good price. I did find it a bit fiddly to mount the small guide wheels but that was probably me rather than the strimmer. Sorted it out and now works great. It is a great weight and well balanced in my hand. I am a wheelchair user so the weight and lack of cable was important to . Oh and the lack of cable saves the Mrs messing up with the cable. I would recommend this especially if you have the batteries.
It's worth i
Actually really bloody good. I spent ages looking at various strimmers and thought I’d give this a go even though I have never heard of the make. I used it for the first time today and I wasn’t disappointed. Its lightweight and easy to use and really did a good job. I don’t have acres of land but have a decent sized garden for a new build property and this tackled it with ease. Really pleased with my purchase. Its very lightweight and well made. Would recommend
I like worx tools so I have batteries available and this choice made sense. Apart from that, this strimmer seems to work very well with the auto line feed actually working. Bit disappointed that you have to buy loaded spools rather than refill yourself but so far the wear has been minimal.
A nice strimmer for the average gardener / allotmenteer.
I really like this strimmer. Light, sturdy, easy to use and does a good job on the paths at my allotment. Previously had a Bosch ART 26-18 strimmer which had various problems throughout the warranty period (Bosch were good at repairing it FOC) until it eventually gave up outside the warranty period. The Worx is less expensive, has a better build quality, has low cost consummables and has more ‘grunt’. I also purchased a spare 4Ah battery and a fast charger.
I was slightly sceptical about buying a battery powered lawn edger – I have a very big garden with a lot of edging to do. However, I can report that this is a truly excellent tool. It does exactly what you would expect and once you’ve had a bit of practice, it’s really simple and fast! My edging used to take about 1.5 hours by hand but now I zip through and it takes 15 minutes. the battery has never died on me and I simply re-charge between trims, so it’s always ready. 5 stars for this…excellent value too.
Brilliant bit of kit. Well built, easy to use. worth the money.
Really easy to use, superb for trimming the edge of a lawn. Old version had a nicad battery and after 7 years of use it was either replace the battery of buy the new Lithium powered one. Have to say this one is even better design wise for a 6ft tall guy. Adjustable and battery lasts about 40 mins on a charge. I can use it 4 times without losing power. Highly recommended.
Strimmers I’ve had in the past were not very good; the lines constantly snapped. Not so this one. No more fiddling with wires either. Nice and light and very easy overall to use. And, a nice price. These trimmers include battery and charger. Well recommended.

Great value for money, much lighter than a normal 240v or petrol strimmer so even the Mrs can use it! I bought the uprated battery to go with it which seems to last forever!

Bought this trimmer for its tilting head feature which is very easy to use. Battery life is as anticipated. Great bit of gardening gear.
A little heavier than I was expecting, I love the forward trimming cut facility great quality appears very good well made. My only criticism is no allocation for fitting spare cord spool in the USA version there is otherwise it would have been 5 stars

Great powerful and easy to use. The only small negative is it is hard to align for edge trimming use the orange sticker on the guard or the “V” between the guard and the body. Of course fantastic cord free. I have three small lawns which I could trim twice on a charge.
Should have bought one of these years ago! Lasts about 25 mins on a full charge but the time it saves messing with the cable makes up for the short run time. Gets through most tough undergrowth.
Fantastic unit. Does everything it says and more. Will cut through thick brambles with ease and has good battery life whilst is reasonably lightweght to handle.
Fantastic product by Worx at per usual. Lightweight and powerful making easy work of even wet thick grass! Much better than my previous corded strimmer which was a big shock. Bought it for jobs away from home but will now be using it for every job.
Amazing! 10 out of 10! 6 foot nettles swallowed up in no time! Really powerful and easy to use. Fixed length which is much better than a telescopic one, and is actually a really comfortable size for a 6 foot bloke. The handle on the front has a little bit of play in it, but not really much of an issue.
30 well spent!

product is ideal for small garden work, even tackled some overgrown areas without a problem. The only drawback I found is the battery pack supplied only lasts for 20 minutes or so and then takes up to 5 hours to recharge. Bought a bigger battery pack and problem solved. So overall a very good tool and value for money.
This is truly a very worthy piece of Kit that performs well…. if you are right handed! Yet another manufacturer that discriminates against us South Paws. The instruction manual is a very poor creation .. in my opinion.
Liked the simplicity of this product. Already have 2 batteries from the worx still set and it’s easily interchangeable. Loved the concept of one battery fits all. Extremely quiet especially compared to wired versions.
Downside wise I would have loved there to be 2 cutting spools.
Lightweight and effective
I already have a worx cordless drill and hedge trimmer which are very good so I bought this to power share the other batterys.i only have a small back and front garden but even though it has a bit less power than an electric one its just right to do the edge of garden and rotating the head makes it great for edging the front lawn it also has a wire guard you can put down to protect flowers from being decimated.while edging.i love not having a cable in the way and being light weight these tools mean the job gets done quicker.highly recommended.!
I bought this because I heard good things about it and read great reviews here on Amazon.
I was not let down.
It came well packed and easy to read and follow instructions.
It is as others have said, Very light and quiet and does a really good job trimming and edging the grass.
Overall I am very happy to have purchased it and would highly recommend to family and friends.
