Worx GT 10-Inch 18-Volt Cordless Electric String Trimmer/Edger #WG150

The Worx GT is a novel design that is very easy to operate. I really like not having to pull along an extension cord or worry about gas and oil. BUT, and this is a big but, this trimmer offers precious little power. It cannot handle the thinnest bits of grass, and don't even attempt to use it on strong weeds. I would recommend sticking with a gas-powered or electric cord model.

I WROTE 3 WEEKS AGO ON THE UNIT ITSELF. IF YOU HAVE ONLY 1 SQUARE FOOT OF GRASS TO TRIM ITS FINE. OTHERWISE IT IS USELESS. HOWEVER NOW THE PROBLEM IS TO GET CREDIT FOR THE RETURN. THEY HAVE JERKED MY CHAIN FOR 3 WEEKS SAYING ITS IN THE MAIL. IF THAT IS NOT BAD ENOUGH THEY NOW HAVE CHARGED MY C/CARD FOR THE NEXT PAYMENT. NOW THEY HAVE THE RETURNED TOOLS AS WELL AS MY MONEY. THANK GOD FOR AM/EX. I CALLED THEM AND THEY ARE GOING TO PULL THE MONEY BACK AND I WILL RECEIVE THE PROPER CREDIT.
A LITTLE FOOTNOTE...IT COST ME OVER $25.00 TO SEND THIS JUNK BACK AND OF COURSE THATS MY NICKEL, NOT THEIRS..

BEWARE...

I bought this in hopes that it would be like on TV. That is the most mis-leading commercial that I have fell for in a long time. The people that are endorcing this thing sure don't care about their reputation.
It doesn't have much power. I stopped this from turning with a gloved hand. I only used this twice in hopes that I was giving it a wrong opinion. Don't buy or you'll just end up returning.

okay, i just got my worx yesterday. i have been using gas trimmers for years. i bought a homelite weed wacker last year,i paid 135 for it,i have had nothinng but probs with gas one, so i decided to give this one a try. i was impressed with it. i was able to do my whole lot yesterday.(110X 165) i got a lot of work done with it was able to weed eat the whole yard, edge it. and still had battery left. i like the way it can easily turn from weed eater to edger. in a couple off seconds, as far as string binding up i had no probs with it. like the adjustments to it. so if you are needing one buy this one. i didnt even need a 2nd batter like suggested. i am very please with it. no more calaises on my fingers from pulling the cord....... and saving money on high gas prices.

The Worx trimmer is light weight, telescopes, swivels, and would be an awesome trimmer if it just had power. This trimmer is a gutless wonder and I don't recommend it even to the light user! I mow every 4 days so my trimming is not overgrown! I think a weed w/ a heavy stem would stop it in it's tracks. It couldn't even handle a little grass and as a edger was even worse. I'm so disappointed; don't buy it.
