About this item
Description
The Worx Nitro 20V 13” Cordless String Trimmer delivers pro-grade performance to support a variety of grass trimming tasks—such as cleaning up sidewalk, driveway, and retaining wall areas. And with the ability to switch between trimmer, edger, and mini-mower modes, you can get more done in the yard with a single tool. The high-efficiency brushless motor runs 50% longer, is 25% more powerful, and delivers a 10X longer life than trimmers with a standard brush motor. With this added power, the 13” dual-exit cutting head makes trimming effortless—even in dense, overgrown areas. Extend trimming line with ease and efficiency using the intuitive push-button command feed system. While this cordless string trimmer remains comfortably lightweight, it is packed with flexible features that enhance control and reduce user fatigue. For example, the telescoping rotating shaft adjusts to fit the height and positioning of the user, while the adjustable auxiliary handle makes for more flexible operability. When you’re working on hills or around hard-to-reach areas, the 90° pivoting head adapts to maintain precision cuts. The trimmer also comes equipped with durable edging wheels that maximize maneuverability and enable clear, crisp lines along grassy edges.

The way all trimmers should be with dual strand. Great features to use, adjust and move around. The trim was easily replaced with thicker strand for better bite. The large capacity battery keeps it going without a hiccup.

I've used this trimmer a few times and so far it's working perfectly for me. Lots of nice features and very adjustable. The wheel for edging is genius! I had bought another name brand powerful electric with a hinge in the middle and ended up returning it. This one is half the price and works twice as good. I liked it so much I bought a second one for my son.

It runs fine but is too heavy. The first one we bought lasted around 5 years and the engine just quit. But it was lighter than the new one and we got free line with it. No free line with the new one.

I purchased this as a step up from the original WORX. This one has a brushless motor and two trim lines, so I find it a bit more effective, but I still use my original WORX, too, and its still going after about 4 years with no issues!

He liked the speed of edging, but was a little heavier than his last Works weedeater. He thinks he’s going to like it as he gets used to the extra weight. Would recommend it to anyone that needs a new weedeater.👌👍

This equipment is wonderful, light weight, but completes the heavy work. This is our second weed eater, and works great as my husband is in a wheelchair, and these tools make things easy for him to still feel like he can do some things . With the batteries -we don't have to worry about gasoline spilling on him either,

GOOD: Much more powerful than the GT it replaced. Two lines work better than one. Brushless motor is smoother running. Ability to handle high grass and weeds. SO SO: Heavier (the 4AH battery helps balance things out). Cannot hear the line advance like you can with the GT. No pull out brush guard. Overall it’s a fine machine that can handle the tougher stuff without complaints and am happy with the decision to purchase it.

The Nitro brushless trimmer doesn't cut as sharpe as I like it to. It seems awkward to me. Other than that it may work for other people.

It's a great product that has made my job a lot easier to do because I can trim places my lawnmower can't get to. I can switch it up to be an edger and do along the sidewalks with the wheels on and I get nice straight lines. People ask me who does my yardwork because it looks like a professional did it and I tell them that I did it with WORK tool's.

I am the best edger and small area trimmer in my neighborhood. This equipment is powerful-sharp and works with precision to edge my yard, tidy area around trees and other small areas before my regular lawn guy comes to mow the whole yard. I Love it ..reminds me of a sewing machine. I have bought additional ones for friends who also love it. clean

I have only used it one time at this point. Trimmer works well even in taller grass situations and is balanced to hold. The edger feature works great. Haven’t gotten the line feed button on the handle to work yet…. The larger battery size over the prior model makes this a little heavier but not too bad. Overall good experience so far.
