WORX WG170.1 Revolution

Easy to assemble and charged fairly quickly, Used to trim grass and weeds around lawn and it was easy to get the job done! 65 years old and have back trouble but this trimmer was light enough that I got the job done! Not made for or advertised for large jobs and tall weeds but grass clipping it does well! After a year I'm very pleased with this trimmer and ecstatic with the battery life! I had an additional back surgery last July and so no yard work for a year. I am liking the telescoping shaft and adjusting position of the trimming head is easy. The string feed mechanism works well after pushing the button. This spring I pulled out the trimmer and the battery fired right up and I was able to complete the trimming of my lawn and this battery was just sitting in the shed for well over a year. The battery after trimming the second time this year finally started to slow down but for a battery sitting dormant over a year I was impressed!

We have had other battery operated trimmers, but this one blows them away. It is very lightweight, easy to adjust and trim. The cord in that little spool cuts anything and has lasted and lasted. Getting two batteries is helpful, but I can trim for a long time and have not had to stop and change batteries yet. This is a bit more pricey than competitors, but worth every penny more. My son has a gas powered one, but he is going to get one of these instead, more than adequate for his use. It pays to get the best.

Lightweight and easy to set up and use, this weed eater does a great job when the battery is full, but the longer you use it, the power to churn through tougher weeds begins to noticeably diminish long before the battery dies. It still works well until the end, just not as good or as powerfully as when the battery has a full charge.The head is easily adjustable which makes working on uneven surfaces great, and it's super light so carrying it around our 9 acres is quite doable. I was surprise at how quickly the 2 string units emptied when I first bought this (the 2 that came with it emptied out at or before the use of 2 batteries), however the replacements I bought usually last 3-4 battery charges a piece before running out depending on the surface around and under the weeds.For context, we live in the country (Indiana) and have a big property. It works great on younger or thinner weeds but once they grow big and thick it struggles, so I have to stay on top of things. I use it for trimming around the edges of the grass and sidewalks, around trees and structures, on gravel driveways and paths, and on the pavers on our patio.I would recommend this for light to moderate use, but not for heavy duty, thick or gnarly weeds. Great for small-medium weeds along the edges where the mower can't get them, and for things like clovers, dandy lions, various grasses and weeds that aren't to fibrous or woody, but weeds over 2 ft. and thicker than 3/16 - 1/4" and sinewy can be challenging if not impossible. Having said that, I'm not sure this was made for or recommended for heavy use by the manufacturer.

This trimmer works great around the yard. It's not made for cutting brush but does an excellent job trimming weeds and grass. I bought mine in march of 2020 and the batteries and trimmer still work great. Any gas trimmer I would have bought for the same price would have already needed replacing. I usually trim my yard in 30 minutes only using one battery. I used to trim my neighbors yard, which took longer, and if I remember correctly the batteries would last around 45 min-1 hour before needing changed. When the day comes that mine needs replaced, I'll get another one.

We have an acre with wood fence line and a lot of mature trees. The Worx does a great job of handling all the trimming and the battery life is more than sufficient. We have also used it to clear grown up areas and it handled it with no issues. I would definitely recommend this product.

Weed waker is a toy the string cartridge keeps falling off. The battery doesn’t last very long

Ok so i’ve had this edger/trimmer for a little while...so far it is awesome! It is great to not have to drag a power cord around..the battery lasts so much longer than I expected..having two is great but I have never had to go to the second batt. ..batts charge b4 ya know it....light weight, easy to maneuver ...shaft telescopes for transport if needed and options of ways to use it...the string lasts without breaking often..I spend much less time fixing the string than I had b4...would be nice if was a double string but then again itz not needed...longevity is the issue with trimmer/edgers for me in the past ..but up to this point a very STRONG 5 stars from me..

I trashed my old one immediately! This thing is so light, I don’t need the wheels. The spools are small but one spool did my whole lawn and fence border on 1/4 acre. I was able to intrically whack around the above ground pool too. Takes a little getting used to but the more you us the feed button you are drawn into its magic. I will be buying all the other attachments because to me, the battery is the main unit and everything else is an attachment. Love it.
