That's why GreenWorks backs every tool with a full four-year warranty - we know our products will perform at the highest level and always be reliable. GreenWorks high quality products are manufactured to last. That's why we back every product with a warranty that's twice the industry standard.

No more emissions. Fifty-four million Americans mow their lawns every weekend, according to the EPA, using 800 million gallons of gas each year. Along the way, homeowners spill more than 17 million gallons of gas while refueling. That's equivalent to the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster. It's time to move beyond clumsy, harmful gas-powered mowers. It's time for GreenWorks to be your lawn tools for life.

5.0 out of 5 stars powerful, shaft and head adjust for ease of use, April 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Greenworks 21052 15-Inch 5.5 Amp Electric String Trimmer/Edger With Pivoting Head & Telescoping Handle (Lawn & Patio)
I have a small yard. This trimmer/edger works fine with a couple of exceptions: first it is head heavy and secondly, the left hand handle is not much use. The timmer works fine, but I have to hold the shaft itself, the handle leaves the head too heavy to use and I am not a weak person. As with most electric trimmers the head is heavy as everything is located there. In a gas model the weight is distributed at both ends with the trimmer itself at the ground and the engine at the top. On the plus side, it is quieter than gas, starts instantly, goes off instantly, and has plenty of power. On the negative side is the electric cord. I bought this model to go with my electric mower. The lack of gase and oil and difficult starting out weight the negatives. There is only one screw involved in assembly. I can't comment on changing the cord as I haven't done it yet. I did buy extra spools. The double lines are very effective. By the time I finished, I had just about mastered using... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid trimmer / edger at a good price, July 28, 2010

This review is from: Greenworks 21052 15-Inch 5.5 Amp Electric String Trimmer/Edger With Pivoting Head & Telescoping Handle (Lawn & Patio)
This is the first electric trimmer I've owned and I'm very pleased with it. It has plenty of power and works great as an edger too. I hadn't edged my sidewalks in the 5 years I've lived there but this trimmer busted right through the overhang. It is fairly lightweight and the ability to fold the head and handle makes it really easy to store in the garage. The edging guide works ok but it still requires you to pay close attention as you can't simply drag it along the edge of the pavement. The autofeed line gave me a few problems initially but I think it might just have been an issue with having a new spool. Don't mess with the Black and Decker (read the reviews) and get this trimmer from Amazon (I don't think Lowes / Home Depot carries it).

3.0 out of 5 stars better than most options, November 10, 2010

As with most small appliances, when they work they are great but if they are fussy you want to sling them against a wall. I don't like fooling with gas or mixes for convenience and environmental reasons. I don't use a trimmer enough to have it sit with gas in it or have to worry about "old" gas or "winterizing" as well as all the other ills which befall small gas engines. I wanted corded without the hassle of recharging a battery and this is one of the few available. I don't to a large enough area to go beyond the end of a cord anyway.
BUT.. this one is fussy about string advance and I have had to do it manually a number of times. The rectangular black button at the inside edge of the spool controls this function but is not identified in the owner's manual. String advance is mistakenly keyed to the "spool retainer" on the trouble shooting page saying in part "while pushing down on the spool retainer" Since this design has eliminated the "bump to advance" feature, this...
