Using the hedge trimmer is really easy and intuitive. It makes trimming our tall bushes and Wisteria so much easier and does a great job. I love how the trimmer head can be angled to make it easier to level off the tops of bushes. The trimmer does get a little heavy if using it with your arms fully extended, but most of the trimming I needed to do didn't require that. The instructions don't cover this very well, but when you are done trimming and want to separate the trimmer from the pole there is a button at the base of the pole with a downward arrow on it that you press inward (toward the pole) rather than downward to easily separate them. Battery life is limited by which of the 40 volt G-max batteries you use. Greenworks sells a 40 volt 2 Ah battery estimated to run about 30 minutes on a full charge, but they also sell a 4 Ah battery estimated to run up to an hour. The trimmer should work fine with either one (the battery I currently own is 2 Ah, and it allowed me to trim trees and bushes with a single charge).
I you are a homeowner looking for a cordless hedge trimmer to keep your bushes in good shape this Greenworks trimmer is definitely worth the money. I am so happy with their cordless system that I may also invest in one of their cordless blowers, too.
My only criticism of this hedge trimmer is it is constructed largely of plastic that feel pretty fragile. This is not a tool that will likely survive tossing it onto the bed of a pickup or dropping it on the ground. But I think it will hold up well with reasonable care and handling. It is not the trimmer to buy for commercial usage, but it would be an excellent choice for any homeowner.
I have 4 huge Azalea bushes which I inherited when I bought my current home. They were massive and out of control. I have them under control, but they remain massive and here is where my problem lies.
These bushes are very wide and I have a hell of a time reaching the center to keep them trimmed. I have a 24 inch Kobalt 40V trimmer that is entirely capable of cutting these bushes, but I have to lean into the bush with my arm extended and using one hand to sweep the trimmer back and forth. This is tiring and aggravating. One of the bushes has an area where I can actually walk into the (almost) middle of the bush and reach the middle. Yes, it looks as ridiculous as it sounds.
So now on to the Earthworks. My initial reaction was that of some of the other reviews on here, and that is that this thing is pretty flimsy and plasticky. It is front heavy, where the cutting head is but the battery does provide a form of counter weight. I just lay the cutting head on top of the bush and that takes some of the weight off. I can see how this trimmer might be awkward for a smaller person or someone that is older to use. My arms were getting a little sore as well.
The part that I have my doubts about (long term) is the plastic sleeve that the extension pole locks into. I wish this part was aluminum, as it feels like the weight of the cutting head will break it. There are two clamps, one at the aforementioned plastic sleeve, the other at the handle where the aluminum pole extends from. I tightened the screws on the clamps tight enough for the clamps to close with more tension yet loose enough to allow the extension pole to slide back into the handle when the clamp is open. This also eliminated some of the "slop" or wiggle where the pole connects to the trimming head.
Satisfied, I charged the battery and went to work. This is where my work got easier than it ever was before. I cut the tops of the hedges and was able to reach the middle with the trimmer fully extended. I then walked to the opposite side and trimmed that side from the middle out.
The total length of these hedges is about 80 ft. The battery performance was good and I only used up one bar. Probably because this trimmer made quick work of the tops of these bushes. I think it only took about 15 to 20 mins. I then did the sides with my shorter Kobalt.
I am happy with this purchase so far, even though I have only used it once. It has definitely made this trimming work easier and faster. This tool is probably not to be thrown into the back of your truck from across the street, but for light home owner usage I think it is adequate. Just use common sense and when in doubt refer to the instruction manual.
If anything happens to this trimmer, I will update this review. But so far so good.
