Pros & Cons
Pros
Maneuvering when trimming at the waist and below is simple and impressive. The blade is long and powerful! Cuts exceptionally well; fairly lightweight and easy to maneuver.
Huge time saver for me. This one is super rad.
It's a little spendy, but trade off was portability, practicality of being cordless, and weight. Only drawback is the weight.
Highlights
Quality
Start it with a lawnmower and weed trimmer and have been pleasantly satisfied with the performance.
It is heavier than i expected, especially with the larger battery.
Bought this without battery or charger based on my experience with the ego string trimmer, which is also excellent.
My hedge trimming time was supposed to be minimized but with the required breaks to rest my shoulders eats up the time.
Price
Already had battery from ego blower so price was incredible!
Competitiveness
This unit works like a champ on the branch thicknesses as advertised.
We have most of the ego products so adding this was a no-brainer.

I was a bit surprised there is no ‘safety’ switch

If you squeeze both handles it starts cutting so be careful how you pick it up

The downside of long battery life is the size and weight
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This item is just a little heavy and difficult to maneuver because of the battery weight and blade length

Not balanced and a bit heavy but operating without an electric cord is wonderful

The battery is heavy and it is at the back of the tool which makes it a little clumsy and your arms will get tired especially getting to those hard to reach places
