Greenworks 40V Cordless Brushcutter with Grass Trimmer, 40cm Cutting Width, Lightweight, Adjustable Height, 2mm Nylon Line or 25cm Blade WITHOUT 40V Battery & Charger, 3 Year Guarantee

I already have a lawnmower with this range. So having the batteries was not an issue and I wanted to stay in the same ecosystem. So the actual machine is brilliant. Easy to put together. I know some people have complained but it is straightforward. Just need to follow the diagramatic sheet WITH the written explanation in the manual. Also available online. Worth take a copy for the future. Easy to get bush cutter head on. The strimmer is simple and effective. Bump feed works well. The really benefit is the power and ease of use. There is hardly any vibration. This is really important after doing couple weeks of strimming. There is also a lot said for techniques - start at the top any long grass, take your time and shortening slowly from the top with 4-5 sweeps; don’t be tempted to go in at the bottom. The machine is nicely weighted and with the strap over the shoulder gives you good control and comfortable operation. The battery at the end balances the weight perfectly. The downside - the batteries (2AH) will last about 15-20 mins on very tall grass about 1.5 foot high which is quite good. On shorter grass, feasible to a 10-15 metre square area easily on one battery. I have found that I have had to use about 4 batteries to cover about 250 square metre area with heavy growth. I have a rapid charger which takes about 30-45 minutes to charge the 2AH batteries - about an hour for the normal charger. So I use the batteries in rotation and charge as I am going along. Be aware that there is reduced charging if the battery is hot. So overall a brilliant cutter especially if you a number of Gardenworks products ; less good if you have a large area to cover and will need to buy 2-3 batteries at £70-80 each. The 4AH batteries are good but can’t them these days.

It's a bit heavy for my bad back but once adjusted and fitting correctly it will be a great tool. Just used it on an over grown lawn, it ripped through the long grass like a knife through butter, not noisy at all and very simple to operate. Highly recommend all the Greenworks gardening equipment we have purchased.

It's very effective as a strimmer. The brushless motor and 40V Lithium Ion battery endow it with some grunt. It's reasonably sturdy and should stand up to some serious use. But.....don't make the mistake of thinking that, as a brushcutter, it's a replacement for a petrol tool. It's not. Even a small capacity 2-stroke model would be far more effective. Ok for patches of brambles and bracken though.

Not particularly lightweight, not very easy to assemble. but it it a great piece of kit; very powerful. It does an excellent job. I'm very pleased with it.

Easy to assemble and use. It is a large and quite heavy machine but the balance is good and it is easy to handle. I used it to clear a large patch of high weeds and it performed admirably. When removing the spool to fit the blade the thread is left-handed so you e to turn it clockwise to unscrew it. The battery lasts a really long time so you easily clear a very large area without changing batteries. I tried using it for edging but as there is no way to support the head it is quite difficult to use it for that.

Hard wearing and well made. I had a charger and 2 batteries when I purchased the Greenworks strimmer so thing's were great. I even purchased a spare disc.

A bit unwieldy compared to previous battery strimmers, balance point is weird and shoulder strap does not completely solve the issue. Good double string cut and bump feed does the job. Will still use old strummer for vertical lawn edging though. On balance it is ok and certainly man enough for tough strums, but lacks a little controllability and finesse. I bought it to fit in with my new greenworks batteried garden tools

Very good unit, a powerful brushless motor will go thro tall thick grass. If thinking of buying this unit, I would think of your area if you can strim your area in 10min a 2amps battery is fine. 20 minute for a 4amp. You may even need 2 battery for a bigger area. But at an 1hour charge it could be done. Overall very good unit strong and fairly lightweight. But if to heavy there is a loophole for a harness attachment. Detachable for storage, easy to use and some good safety features ie plug in and power on button. The unit has non use self turn off. Would still think of ear protection as unit is over 85db and is at at 96db so ear plugs would be fine to use. So overall very happy with greenworks digi pro brushless strimmer. I say an easy 4stars.

Très facile à monter et les mêmes batteries que ma tondeuse Greenworks. Les bordures sont nickel Crome franchement je ne regrette surtout pas mon achats .

Fonctionne très bien, même dans l'herbes hautes. La batterie de 2 ampères est un peu juste.

Der Greenworks Rasentrimmer ist ein weiteres Gerät der Firma, welches bei mir im Garten einziehen durfte. Der Trimmer kommt zerlegt und muss erst montiert werden. Es liegen zwar diverse Anleitungen für Akku, Gerät und Ladegerät bei, allerdings keine Montageanleitung, die gerade für den Messerwechsel wichtig gewesen wäre (der „normale“ Zusammenbau gelingt anhand der Produktbilder) - das ist ärgerlich. Gleich vorab: die 35cm-Version ist für mich eigentlich kein Trimmer mehr, sondern eher eine Motorsense. Neben der (sehr kräftigen und robust ausgeführten) Fadenspule befindet sich nämlich auch ein Vierkantmesser im Karton, welches statt der Fadenspule angebracht werden kann. Dank der kräftigen Akkupower kann damit problemlos dichteres Gestrüpp beseitigt werden, kleine Äste und Ähnliches stellen kein Hindernis für das Gerät dar. Der Trimmer ist sehr lang, und obwohl mich das erst stutzig gemacht hat, weil dadurch das Handling erschwert wird, wird einem nach dem Arbeiten klar, dass dies als zusätzliche Schutzfunktion bzw. Sicherheitsabstand gedacht ist. Da das Gerät am Tragegurt hängt, dauert es nicht lang, und man hat sich an das Arbeiten mit diesem Monster gewöhnt. Ich arbeite mit einem 4Ah-Akku in einem ca. 1000m2 großen Garten und komme ohne Probleme damit zurecht. Demnächst wird das Teil mal zum Freischneiden von Wegen im Wald eingesetzt. Fazit: der Akkutrimmer steht für mich einem Benzinfreischneider in nichts nach, im Gegenteil: mit Akku ist es leiser, sauberer und vibrationsärmer - ich bin begeistert!

Kändes rejäl o stryktålig. Finns inget att anmärka på

Pretty good tool.
