But you’d have the other battery and another charger for less. Now you can have 2 batteries ready and change they both at once if need be. I took a gamble that the cordless electric would do the job and it certainly does. I’d argue it has more power greenworks pro than the gas 2 cycle. I only have an acre and change but I have a long driveway I edge with a lot of sidewalk too. Anyway I can edge the whole property and trim all I need to (around the house – front landscaping – etc) all on one battery charge.

Its telescoping shaft and handle are easy to adjust and make the tool very comfortable to use, even for extended trimming sessions. I guess I have been fortunate in my EGO experiences. I have both the blower and hedge clippers and they have been great. I always have one battery sitting on the charger and I am using the other. This trimmer looks great and ‘almost’ makes me want to start mowing and trimming my yard again. A couple of years ago I finally gave up the fight and started having someone mow and edge every other week and I just mowed in between because I hated edging so much.

Like their other products, the EGO Power+ 15” POWERLOAD String Trimmer is made of durable green and gray plastic housing—except for the carbon fiber shaft. This shaft arrives folded in two that needs to be straightened and locked down with a provided hex key . The only assembly is attaching the protective debris shield and handle. It’s a good thing I photographed the trimmer when it was new and shiny because after one session, it looked like it has been used for years .

10 weeks later, after dropping it off at HD and having them ship the entire trimmer to a service center somewhere, it came back a bit scratched up but with a new $2 plastic trigger installed. The runtime was actually impressive given how I was using the trimmer to cut thick tall grass and thicker-stemmed weeds that I had no business using a string trimmer on. I think that the 2.5Ah battery included in the kits would power the trimmer through at least several quick maintenance-trimming sessions. To convert the trimmer into a mini-mower, you remove the wheels and reinstall them at the back of the debris guard, so they stick down below the plane of the trimmer string. Now you have a string trimmer on wheels, so it’s a little easier to maintain a consistent height above ground level. When we tested the mower function, we found it easy to roll the trimmer back and forth but harder to keep it parallel to the ground for a truly consistent cut.
