ECHO 58-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless String Trimmer

I am very impressed with this purchase. Really like that it is battery operated.

Saw a demo of the trimmer and was convinced to take a chance.Trimmer is longer then I expected, but I think that’s the new trend.It looks and feels very professional and I think it would serve useful for even the pros landscapers.I blurred out my face, but believe me…I’m smiling ear to ear!

Performs well, charge lasts a good while

I have been using this Echo brush cutter/trimmer for 3 1/2 years now, on a weekly basis, on thick brush and weeds, and have never had a problem. It powers through grass, thick bushes, and even small trees 1 1/2 feet thick or less (with the chain saw attachment) effortlessly. The main advantages over gas engine versions, are it is quiet, virtually vibration-free, powerful, great battery life, versatile, reliable, and light-weight. I can’t take the heavy vibration, the very loud engine noise, and the dangerous engine exhaust from the gas engine versions. The main advantages over the other brands of battery-powered trimmers are it is far more powerful, much more reliable, and has way more battery life. I can work for several hours on one charge. It also has a large number of attachments available. I highly recommend this ECHO 58-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless String Trimmer. It is the best!

I bought this a little over a month ago, and I LOVE it. It is soo powerful and will rip through anything. Just as strong or more powerful than a gas trimmer without the stink, the gas, the oil, and the noise.Its heavy and very solid, but Id rather that then light and flimsy.Best trimmer Ive ever had.

Really surprised with some of the other reviews on here…I think the trimmer is fantastic and so easy to setup.I was originally researching between the Ego or the Echo, and I’m so happy I choose the Echo 58V trimmer.Firstly, I never have to feel like I’m dislocating my shoulder just to start a gas trimmer ever again! This trimmer equals or beats in speed, power and torque of my gas trimmer. I have only praise for the overall cut performance and its simplicity.As for battery; I never worry about the charge not lasting for the entire job. I haven’t tried but I’m sure I can even use the trimmer for more then one session on a single charge if I wanted. Though, I’m most happy that carrying a 58V battery powered trimmer was much lighter then I expected.Only debate now is I feel like I made a commitment to Echo and need to wait for the lawn mower to go on sale.

I purchased this Echo unit about a month ago and initially did have a problem since it would run only for a few seconds and then quit. A friend who had one said to make sure that the battery was properly set into the housing since he had this problem. I did and since then if I have the same difficulty I take out the battery and then reinsert it and not problems. It is very powerful machine and so much quiter than my old 2 stroke gas trimmer. It would be nice if one could attach a cutting blade.

Great machine with tons of power

The trimmer was so light and smooth delivering constant power that I didn’t realize that I’ve been using it for 30mins. The trigger response is very smooth and its so much quieter than my old gas trimmer. Best thing I like about it is that I travel a lot for work and its easy enough that my wife can operate it. No having to fuss with gas/oil mix and pull strings.
