Good product, almost great.
Great for a normal sized property, small issues. Firstly, change that string that came with it. It's weak and breaks often and needs to be fed constantly. I use the DeWalt .80 string and it is light years better than the string that comes with the worx. Secondly, the line feeder works you just have to tap it quickly (while running, it'll pause but it'll advance) a few times when you need more string. The batteries could indeed last longer (I get 20-30 min with each) but they give you two of them so it's not a huge deal. If they gave you one battery it would be an issue.
The edger feature works great and gives you very clean looking lines. Keeping that line straight takes practice but that's not the tools fault. It's also very customizable in terms of comfort so you can manipulate it to be comfortable for your body size. It's light weight enough. This is a great tool for a regular person with a regular sized property, as long as you get some heavier gauge string (I can't emphasize this enough). Good value for 99 dollars when all you want is a decent weed whacker / edger.
For what it's worth I have a corner property in the suburbs so I have plenty of grass / sidewalk and I can edge it all (sidewalk and street) with 1 battery.
