WORXGT Revolution 20V 12" String Trimmer Grass Trimmer/Edger/Mini-Mower, WG170.9

This company is EXCELLENT!!!! I cannot sing their praises enough!! Customer service is a BREEZE !and their tools are POWERFUL and get the job done! I have gotten some good deals, GREAT Customer support and service, and great life and use out of the many WORX gardening tools I have and use (i.e. Lawnmower, blower, trimmer, etc). Now, I will get a shearer for some extra plants I have now.This trimmer is SO VERSATILE! It just is great as BOTH an edger and as trimmer (Weed hacker). My grass is SUPER THICK, and I have so much to edge (due to a lot of Stones and paths). With this trimmer, ..thanks to its versatility in switching from trimmer to edger and back again... I get it done MUCH FASTER (unlike the Black and Decker that I used to have...which would Hhhhm and Haaww...and was harder to work with, not to mention was almost twice as heavy) this lightweight thing gets to WORK and it WORX!!!!....chopping through thick weeds like a butter knife! I feel like a Garden Ninja, almost using the trimmer. Easy and powerful. The Price is GREAT! You are not getting overcharged and get a quality powerful product.It's a USA company and the customer support is GREAT and COMMUNICATION excellent for all the tools that I've order so far. I have several batteries that are ALL interchangeable and swap out, they charge very quick especially if you buy a Quick charger. the 40V batteries last so long, I don't need to recharge it if I'm doing front yard and backyard of a 3 bedroom / 2 bathroom house. So I love the Quick charger, sometimes when the Battery does run out when I'm using it on the other tools (blower to get the leaves out during the fall). Been using Worx since summer 2020 and no complaints and have gotten a nice set of tools!

Very lightweight,easy to use,,works great for trimming, like the way you can adjust it to your height and move the handle in different positions for you to use and the push button to let the string out.

Update (No star changes): The duck tape didn't hold the retainer in place. Well, it held it to the wheel assembly, but the screw still came out of the trimmer. I have now added a bit of cut-off zip tie into the hole, replaced the duck tape, and reinstalled the wheels yet again. Eventually, I'm going to figure out a way to get these wheels to stay in place. Original review follows.This is the third one of these trimmers we've purchased. The trimmer itself works well, is easy to reload with string, and does the edging and trimming a smaller lawn might need. "Smaller," in Texas, means up to 10,000 square feet on the lot - which the house, driveway, sidewalks and landscaping cuts in to.You can wind your own spools fairly easily, and the batteries last maybe three years at the outside. Since two batteries and a charger cost only slightly more than a complete unit with two batteries and a charger, we opt to replace the entire unit when the batteries inevitably fail. I don't care who makes the batteries, anything around this price point is going to fail in two to three years.The only problem is the wheel mounting mechanism. It is a plate that you slide the wheels on to. The plate becomes loose over time, and you have to tighten it. But since you've tightened it before, the wheels start becoming harder and harder to put onto the mounting plate. The REAL problem is you cannot tighten the mounting screw with the wheels in place. On our last unit, a bit of duck tape (thanks, Red Green, for the idea) and ingenuity kept the wheels in place, but a better design would negate the need to jury rig the unit to keep the wheels in place. Note that we don't move the wheels from one mounting spot to the other; we leave them installed in the edging position. There is really no excuse for them to loosen over time, but it has happened exactly the same way with both of the previous units we purchased.If you're looking for a light-weight, low-cost, easy-to-use and reload trimmer that also does a decent job edging, this unit will work just fine. Just be aware that you'll need new batteries in three or so years, because they are batteries, not because this is made by Worx.

I highly recommend this!!! My grass was about 3 foot high and it cut thru it with ease. It came charged and included the charger. It's light weight and easy on your hands. No uncomfortable vibrations while using it!! For the size of my yard the string has yet to run out!!!!

Easy to use, not heavy. Battery life could be better, but for what I’m using it for, it will suffice! Would purchase again.

I just got this, was able to charge the battery to full, made sure it had power before snapping the handle together (suggested by another reviewer) and went out to do some trimming.The weight is light and the size is suitable for me as I'm 5'2". I'm a senior woman and I found this easy to use, it's pretty basic. It's powerful enough to do what I need it to do and it's not too noisy. It's definitely quieter than the gasoline powered ones I've been around!I had some areas that were overgrown that it cut down with no problems. I was in the process of edging when quite suddenly, I was out of line!The battery was still going strong, I had been at it 15-20 minutes when the line ran out.Another reviewer had a tip and that was about the button on the side. You press it and hold the handle to start and then you can let go of the buttonI was using this trimmer/ edger to knock down where I can't with the mower.. small areas of yard, along fence lines, around trees, next to buildings, and the edging next to a curb that hadn't been done in ages. It was durable enough to get the job done.I'm happy with my purchase so far for what I got done and I've ordered a multi pack of line! 🤠
