Greenworks 60V Cordless Yard Tool Combo Kit with 4.0Ah Battery & Charger – 13" Dual-Line String Trimmer and 540 CFM Leaf Blower

The good folks at Greenworks have another hit. This 60V cordless string trimmer hits that sweet spot of having enough power without feeling like overkill. This 60V unit has the power to blast through all sorts of weeds, and the 4 amp hour capacity lasts long enough to get most medium and some larger jobs done in one charge. It is definitely comparable to a 25 cc gas powered string trimmer, but without the hassle or noise. Unsurprisingly, this battery powered string trimmer is relatively quiet, unlike its gas powered cousins. Also unlike gas powered, it is very simple to use. Just put in the battery and go. The weight is comparable to a gas powered string trimmer. It isn't feather light, but it comes with a strap that helps a lot. I can use it for an hour and not feel completely wiped out. I also like that I can use attachments with it. I happen to have a couple of attachments from other brands and they worked perfectly fine with this string trimmer. Specifically, I have used a pole saw and a hedge trimmer attachment with it. Both made quick work of the job at hand. I also appreciate that it comes with a high capacity battery and charger. I've seen others that only come with a smaller capacity battery, or perhaps none at all, but this is a good one and done starter set that will serve you well. It also comes with a bit of 080 string. When it runs out, I plan to use 095 string, but even the 080 is quite durable and effective, which is why I haven't used it all up yet. I often see this particular string trimmer listed at far below the list price, and I consider it to be a very good value. So, skip the bargain trimmers at the big box stores and get this instead. I've owned several string trimmers over the years and had issues with all of them, but this one is a keeper. This is likely the last string trimmer that I'll ever need.

This is a great product, gets job done. Not for pros. Patio and garden clean up is a breeze. good battery life specially with blower.

This set works pretty good. I have a really small yard, so I switched to these battery tools instead of having to buy and store fuel. Battery - So far I have been able to use both on one battery charge without any degradation of power. My only gripe with the battery is sometimes charger acts like it's not charging. But when I check the battery, it seems fine. I have to unplug/replug the charger, then it acts right. Trimmer - Lightweight. Came with 2 spools, so that'll be nice if I run out of string in the middle of trimming, can just switch it out. Sometimes the line doesn't feed on the bump. Otherwise, it works great for me. Blower - Here is where they lose a star. It's not as powerful as I would like. I doubt it's 110mph like the specs say. It's slower than my electric which is rated at 90mph. Definitely not as powerful as the electric one that I'm replacing. But the advantage here is no cord. So I can live with it. Overall a good value and just what i need for my small yard.

I'm happy that I got this Greenworks PRO 16 in. 60V Battery Cordless Attachment Capable String Trimmer with 4.0 Ah Battery. I already had a 2 Ah battery from a blower. This is so much easier than messing with gas. The ICE trimmers are powerful, but what I remember most is those few days when I wore my arm out trying to get it started, or the 20 minutes having to baby it until it would cut. NO MORE! This powerful trimmer has bump line advance, 2 speeds with trigger control of each speed from slow to fast, and a great shoulder strap that you will need because of the weight. This trimmer has a long reach, and can be set either for 14" cut or 16" cut. The battery lasts longer on the 14" cut, so that's all I used so far. The 4 Ah battery is heavy. This trimmer with battery weighs more than my gas trimmer. This is a pro model. It is not for my 100 lb wife. She can't handle the weight or length, even with the strap. That isn't a negative. Greenworks has many trimmer available in smaller weights and lengths. If I want one for my wife, I'll get one of those. This trimmer is powerful. I like the way you can check battery status by pushing a button. One great feature is the variable speed controlled by the trigger. When trimming near a fence or wall, it's easy to run at slow speed which cuts the weeds but doesn't tear up the wall or string on the chain link fence. I've used it on both speeds, high and low. Low speed gives the longest battery life. I'm able to trim all but the toughest weeds and small branches on low speed. I get at least an hour of use on one battery charge by using low speed about 99% of the time. I'll change it to 16" when I do the larger hillside for better coverage. Overall, it is sturdy, easy to use, has great reach, is much quieter than gasoline, and has easy bump line advance. Highly recommended if you have a lot of grassy area to trim.

I picked up this Greenworks combo kit during a big sale and could not be happier with the performance. The string trimmer is strong enough to handle thick grass and edges cleanly, and the blower easily moves leaves and debris without needing multiple passes. Both tools feel powerful and well built. The battery is a big win. The 60V 4.0 Ah battery lasts a long time. I trimmed and used the blower across my yard without needing to recharge. That kind of run time makes yard work much easier. One thing to mention, while the tools work great, they do feel a bit heavy after a while, especially the trimmer. If you are planning to use it for extended periods, I recommend picking up a shoulder strap. It helps a lot with back strain and makes the whole experience more comfortable. Overall, I am very happy with this combo. It is a solid choice if you want power, cordless convenience, and long battery life. Just be ready to add a strap for those longer sessions.

I recently purchased this weed eater, and it performs impressively. It powers through thick grass and weeds effortlessly, and the battery-operated design is convenient and easy to use for most yard tasks. However, the battery is a significant drawback—it’s very heavy. At 5’2” and 125 pounds, I found it tiring to handle for long periods, as the weight throws off the balance. For someone my size, I’d recommend going with the 20 or 40 model, which likely have lighter batteries for better maneuverability. Overall, it’s a great weed eater for the price, but picking the right model is key for comfort, especially for smaller users.

We have purchased four items from this company. One we haven't used yet - but we have concerns about the cheap design and hard set up one of that item (the snow blower - which will get a review after it snows). Another item is the lawn mower, which is a horrible piece of junk (and has its own review). Both of these items (the leaf blower and the weed whacker) worked as expected. We wish we got a more powerful leaf blower, but that's probably more of a preference for our needs than a specific complaint about this blower. It has a 40/2 battery that we have to share between the two of them and the battery doesn't last very long even just using one piece of equipment at a time. Because of the lawn mower (with its own review), we won't recommend purchasing anything from this company to anyone who we don't want to see frustrated. Once we use the leaf blower and weed whacker more, we will update this review with any other opinions or (hopefully not) issues that might arise.

After giving up on my 20 volt Worx trimmer (fine for a small yard with minimal trimming, but not a lot of power), I finally pulled the trigger on this Greenworks 60 Volt beast. It's substantial, and heavy. It's got a lot of power, and it's pretty easy to load string. No hand-winding string onto a spool and having it jamb on you. I haven't used the included shoulder strap yet, but it's good to know it's available. I like the fact that you can snap other tools onto the shaft, like hedge trimmer, chainsaw, etc. The entire head is metal, which should make it more durable. One thing that would be better is if you were able to adjust the head angle and pole length, making it more ergonomic for different body types. I'm not looking forward to the cost of replacement batteries, but the tool worked well for its first season.
