The product performed as advertised and has helped tremendiously around my home. I do wished that it was a double sided unit, versus one plastic cutting piece?

WORX GT WG150.1 10-Inch 18-Volt 2-In-1 Cordless Electric Grass Trimmer/Edger Specifications


The WORX GT is the perfect tool to neatly manicure your yard after you mow. It even won the prestigious Editor’s Choice award from Popular Mechanics Magazine at the 2006 Lawn and Garden Show.


The lightweight WORX 18-volt battery-powered string trimmer weighs less than a gallon of milk and is the only trimmer on the market which converts from a standard grass trimmer to a true walk-behind edger – 2 tools in 1. The integrated Edger wheel allows you to quickly and easily roll the trimmer along your patio or driveway for adding that perfectly edged look to your yard or garden.


And forget the hassle of pull starters - the WORX GT starts with the single push of a button. Forget the aggravation of untangling extension cords – the 18-volt battery-powered WORX GT can trim up to a 1/2 acre yard on a single charge. It goes anywhere you need to. And unlike some competitive cordless models, the WORX GT comes with a 1-hour quick charger so you don’t have to wait for hours for the battery to re-charge…you’re back to work in minutes not hours.


The unique trimming head of WORX GT pivots up to 90-degrees to reach under decks, under play equipment, under trees and bushes or on slopes and hills.

No more bumping to feed line. The auto-feed line system of the WORX GT feeds out line with a simple squeeze and release of the trigger. The fold-away spacer guard also helps to protect flowers, tree trunks, outdoor lighting and other delicate objects from damage by the trimmer line.


The WORX GT adjusts in length and handle positions to ensure a more comfortable ergonomic fit and less strain on backs and arms. And unlike long, bulky trimmers, the WORX GT collapses for easy storage in a closet or garage.

What's in the Box
WORX GT 18-volt cordless string trimmer, 18-volt battery pack and 1-hour fast charger, pre-loaded spool with 16-feet of trimmer line, complete tri-lingual operator’s manual and product demo DVD for quick assembly and clear operation

it is ok, that it!! - vijay - michigan
The product is too weak to do more than maintain the landscape. If you are using it to clear the growth after the winter, you will find it is too soft.
I had to revert back to my gas trimmer to clear the winter growth and I suppose will use this to maintain the edge.
Not what was promised on TV ads.






I really had high hopes for this... - C. Ward -
This was the first time I actually purchased an item off of an infomercial. I came to amazon, read some reviews, did my homework like I always do. There were mixed reviews as with any product, but I decided to test it out.

I decided to order from the 800 # as I've never done that before, and figured I would see what all they say/offer. From the start to the end it was about a 20-25 minute call. Out of those 20/25 minutes only 5 were taking my information, cc, etc. The rest was nothing but trying to upsell me. They tried to upsell the rapid charger (80.00 iirc), a "trimmings and grass blower", magazine subscriptions, etc. When I would say no, they would drop the price, and go again. I was nice about it, because I know the person on the end is only doing their job, and if they don't they will get fired. So anyway I just kept saying no thanks. They said if I paid the amount in full they would process my order faster, and I would receive expedited shipping, which meant I would receive the product in 7-10 days. The shipping was pretty fast, I received it in about 8 days.

When I opened the box, assembling what little needed to be done, was very easy. I plugged in the charger and put the battery on there. After 6 hours of charging it was ready. I went outside, did a little trimming and edging. After 15 minutes the battery was dead. I thought it must be a fluke since they said you can "trim an entire football field three times" on the infomercial. I charged the battery over night, and started again. Wow it lasted 20 minutes this time. I now see why they want to sell you extra batteries, and the rapid charger.

Other than the fact that this will only run for about 20 minutes, it seems a bit under-powered. What would take a corded/gas trimmer a swipe to cut, this took maybe 5-10 swipes. It's a good concept, and if the battery had lasted longer it would have received 3 or 4 stars, but that just isn't the case.

Overall I suggest buying another trimmer that won't force you to buy 4 batteries, or an 80.00 charger just to trim your grass.



Terrible power! Does NOT self feed line - David M. Blankenship - Alabama
I ordered this product and was very excited due to all the commericials that are ALL OVER the t.v. now. With a fully charged battery, I tried to trim my drive way and it was SO WEAK that I had to go very slow and try to trim a small portion of grass at a time. Also, every 2 minutes I had to stop and pull out the cord of the so called "self feeding line" that supposedly automatically adjusts to the proper length without manual adjustment...WRONG! It was such a dissappointment! Great idea but they didn't have the product to back up what they were advertising. I lost to ship it back, so bascially I paid dollars for a piece of crap and wasted time. DON'T BUY WORX GT!!!!!!!!
