Customer Review: Toro 13 inch trimmer
Toro products have always worked well for me doing landscaping and the 13 inch trimmer is no exception. Tough little machine.
Customer Review: Wimpy
My old Craftsman 2-cycle trimmer gave up the ghost so I decided to go green with an electric. Once I got it going, the old Craftsman used to make short work of the weeds in my garden and behind my house. The string broke about 12 times on the Toro and I had to open up the spool to fish it out. And the garden was only about 1/4 done. I finally threw it down in disgust and gave up. It may be OK for trimming the grass around the edges of your yard, but that's about it.

WORX GT WG151.5 18-Volt Cordless Electric Lithium-Ion String Trimmer/Edger With One Battery

Put the finishing touches on your lawn with the Worx GT lithium 2-in-1 Cordless Lawn Trimmer/Edger. Designed for comfort and easy adjustment, this 2-in-1 tool easily converts from a trimmer to a walk behind edger which makes caring for your lawn a snap.. The 18-volt Lithium-Ion battery packs plenty of power and frees you from cords and outlets.



Lithium Power batteries are 40 percent lighter than equivalent Ni-Cd Batteries. View larger.


Lithium batteries' unique chemistry provides up to three times longer life. View larger.


The ErgoSum Design includes height-adjustable handles and soft grips for optimum comfort. View larger.


The adjustable the front handle allows easy trimming under low-lying objects. View more features.
Efficient, Environmentally Friendly Battery Power
The Worx Cordless Trimmer/Edger is powered by an efficient, lightweight, rechargeable 18-volt Lithium Ion battery pack, which delivers plenty of power without the added cost of gas, the hassle of extension cords, or the pollution associated with gas-powered alternatives. The WORX lithium battery packs are exceptionally lightweight and provide 3 times the useable life of standard Ni-Cd batteries. The battery pack will even work with your other WORX Lithium Power Share tools; just swap it out when you're ready to move on to the next job. When you're not using the WorxGT, it stows out of the way with the included wall mount. The battery charges in approximately 1/2 hour!

Ergonomic Design for Maximum Comfort
The Worx Cordless Trimmer/Edger features several adjustable parts, making it as comfortable as possible to use and allowing you to garden with greater ease. It's built with ErgoSum Design Technology, so you can operate the WorxGT using a natural grip. The trimmer's front handle has multiple adjustable positions, and the rear grip is angled for maximum comfort. The shaft of the trimmer extends or retracts with a simple twist to match the height of every user and adapt to every application.

The handle also pivots easily to go from trimming to edging in a matter of seconds. The head of the trimmer also pivots 90 degrees to make light work of sloped surfaces and gives you access to grass under low-lying branches. A fold-away guard and twin wheel set add protection and accuracy to give your yard a professionally manicured look. At just 5.3 pounds, it's light enough for almost anyone to use. An automatic line feed keeps the trimmer from binding up and interrupting your work, and the 10-inch cutting radius covers plenty of ground.

The Worx GT 2-in-1 Cordless Lawn Trimmer/Edger is backed by a full two-year warranty.

What's in the Box
Lithium-Ion 18V Cordless 2-in-1 String Trimmer and Edger, 18-volt battery, 1/2-hour charger, tool wall mount rack, and charger wall mount rack.

Cutting Line Length: 1x16 ftCharging Time: 1/2 hour approxMachine Weight: 5.3 lbsCordless: Yes



Customer Review: Battery problems
The trimmer worked great - the first two weeks. Then, the charger started blinking red, which means the battery isn't accepting the charge. It was bought through an Amazon second party seller. They said the couldn't replace only the batter and to contact WORX. WORX said to go throught the seller because it was less than 90 days old. The seller has now agreed to ship a new trimmer, and I'm awaiting its arrival. I then will ship the old one back. This is all a hassle, but in the end the company was responsive. I read of other people having battery problems, but went ahead with the purchase. The trimmer design is good, but the battery may be the weak link.
Customer Review: Not worth it.
I bought this with the extra battery so that I could have a battery always ready. I need about one and one/half hours to trim everything. Even with the extra battery, I cannot do that. In addition, it doesn't cut powerfully enough to do the work. As a woman, the light weight appealed to me as well as the clean battery, but I will go to a gas trimmer next.

Hedge Trimmer with 20-Inch Blade
The hedge trimmer's front handle has three adjustable positions, and the rear grip is angled for maximum comfort. The overmold soft inserts fight fatigue by absorbing vibration and make the trimmer easier to hold securely. A center-mounted battery gives the trimmer improved balance for even more accuracy and control, and the 20-inch blade reaches stray twigs and branches with ease.

Blower / Sweeper with 120 Mph of Force
The cordless convenience of the WorxAir blower/sweeper takes this handy tool everywhere but the living room. A proper grip fights fatigue by allowing you to work in a relaxed, natural position, while 120-mph air speed sweeps away debris on hard surfaces.

Customer Review: WORX Yard Tools
I bought a 3in1 deal WORX brand. 1 is a weed eater & edger. 2 is a bush/hedge trimmer/shaper. 3 is a blower/sweeper. It came with 2 18 volt batteries & a charger & wall mounter. They are very light weight and adjusts to fit the person using it so you don't have to bend,etc. They are extremely easy to use & quick & no big deal about getting it out to use- no electrical cords, No pull starting for gas motors, no smells. THEY ARE GREAT!!! I am female & I can use them with arthritis & fybromyalgia, on my better days.
Customer Review: Not bad, better than expected!!
My wife both me the Worx 3 piece battery operated tools for Fathers Day. I'll start with the worst and move up. The Blower works but can't touch my existing 4cyl gas blower, so I don't use it. The trimmer, at first seemed to be not so powerful and awkward to use.That has changed, I found many adjustments for this unit that now makes it acceptable and works well. Still experimenting.... Now to the best! The hedge trimmer!! Wow, its 20inches long, very powerful for a battery unit and works as well as my old electric unit! The old electric unit went to the garbage and I just use this one. It can cut twigs that are thicker than a 1/4 inch with no problem. Very nice, not to worry about cords or gas. The package comes with two batteries, and they last and last. One good thing is that this is not a 3 in 1 tool. It is 3 different tools, and with the 2 batteries, any two tools can be used at once. Worx also sells these units as singles, in case you do not want the 3 piece package. The 3 piece package comes with a neat garage wall hanger, so you can neatly mount all three tools on any wall. In conclusion, at first I was not that impressed (except for the Hedge trimmer) but as I use these tools more and more, I'm getting more impressed with these products.

Does not work well at all - string tangles constantly around the trimmer head - not at all like the original.

Two-year limited warranty.
Customer Review: Electric Weed Eater Review
Poulan Weed Eater XT114, great weedeater for the price. This product is light weight and easy to use, plus the price is less here than in most chain retail stores. I would highly recommend this item, it's great!!
Customer Review: This is a piece of junk
I purchased the Weedeater XT114 at a local hardware store for some light duty trimming at my vacation home. I realize this is not a heavy duty trimmer, but it is so much less than that. You'd be better off buying a good pair of scissors for $5.00 and saving the $45.00. It just doesn't perform at all. Don't believe me? Try one out and you'll be cursing Poulan for putting their former good name on this worthless piece of plastic.

Husqvarna 128C 28cc 2-Stroke Smart Start Curved Shaft String Trimmer

Lightweight trimmer that is perfect for homeowners looking for the ergonomic features unique to a curved shaft. Easy starting with air purge and Smart Start recoil assist. Strong, braided wire cable drive. Comes with easy loading T25 bump trimmer head. Handle adjustment can be completed without tools.
Customer Review: Excellent Trimmer, read review for details
I recently purchased this trimmer after extensive online research as well as questioning those I know with lawn care businesses. Based on my research this is the best value near this price range for string trimmers. The trimmer is slightly heavy, certainly seems closer to 15-18 pounds than 10 pounds. However the power and cutting ability significantly reduced my time trimming so the additional weight was not a problem. The owners manual was lacking to illegible. Stringing it the first time was a challenge and took me nearly an hour to figure it out. Assembly is straight forward and simple as is starting and operating the trimmer. It has more than adequate power for home use. I purchased the .095 "Husqvarna Titanium Force Premium Trimmer Line" and it beats everything in it's path to death. It will break at times on chain link fencing and landscaping bricks. It starts quickly and effortlessly, runs smooth and without vibration, is well balanced and a pleasure to operate. Personally I am no fan of "bump head" trimmers but the line holds up very well so it isn't as irritating as with some other trimmers. This model has a clutch to engage the cutting head where your palm holds the shaft and once released the head stops spinning while the engine remains idling. I have adapted to releasing the clutch and manually pushing the bump head to release additional line as needed. This ensures I get the proper length and will prolong the life of the bump head assembly. I cannot attest to the durability of this product as mine is quite new but based on my personal research it should hold up well. Additionally as with any good two cycle equipment I highly recommend you spend a few extra dollars for premium 2-cycle oil as opposed to using the cheap stuff.

Husqvarna 223L 18-Inch 24.5cc 2-Stroke Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer

Lightweight trimmer that is perfect for landowners and semi-professionals looking for the quality of Husqvarna's E-Tech engine and the ergonomic features unique to a straight shaft. Easy starting with air purge. Strong, braided wire cable drive and durable gear box that increases reliability. Comes with easy loading T35 bump trimmer head. Blade capable.
Customer Review: Light and Powerful
I just bought the 223L to replace a 5 year old, lightly used Echo SRM-210i which froze-up (piston is hung in the cylinder). Wished I had bought the Husqvarna when I bought the Echo. Pros: * Easy to start and stay running. (The Echo would start easy but it would tend to stall (and sometimes quit until it warmed up.) * Very lightweight. * Easy to maneuver - it just glides across the ground. * Powerful - this machine cuts through 1/4" brush with no problems using stock string. Cons: Only has a two year warranty compared to Echo's 5 years. However, the place I bought the Husq (Home Improvement store starting with L) had a 3 extended warranty for $39. The total price of the Husqvarna and the extended warranty was about in line with Echo's compatible model (which has a smaller engine).
