So its easy for anyone to get a more beautiful result anywhere in their yard. Ive had people tell me that theres no way that a batterypowered trimmer can do as good as a gas one.

If your yard has spots that are too small, too challenging or just too dangerous for a fullsize mower. You can use your worx gt 2. 0 as a lightweight, maneuverable minimower. Thats right.

Now its easy for anyone to mow small, tricky areas without any lifting. And the wheels ensure that youll never scalp or gouge your grass again. You get a consistent, level threeinch cut, which is the healthiest height for your grass. Mmhmm. With the worx gt 2. 0, it always looks great. Now you can take the wheel off, snap it right back here and you can almost use it as if it were a mower. Its really nice to get to those hardtoreach places. I dont really know any other tool that has that wheel mode like that for a trimmer. For going under stuff, especially like a deck and things like that, you could lay it down even more and just slide in and out there. Right underneath there. And with this, theres no effort whatsoever. The wheel holds all the weight. Your arms arent tired by holding it up. I can do it with one hand. It makes life easy. The thing we all hate about ordinary trimmers is when you have to wind new line onto the spool. What a mess. Oh, and if you do it wrong, it hangs up the machine. Yeah. Thats whats so great about the worx gt 2. 0. The spools are perfectly prewound. So you just pop one in, get right back to work. Plus, worx provides the spools free of charge. Whenever you need more, just call the number right on the tool. Announcer ordinary line is round and dull and can fray the edges of your grass as it trims. But the worx gt 2. 0 uses a revolutionary, new doublehelix line for a sharper betterlooking cut. People who own the worx gt 2. 0 love the fact that the lithium battery holds its charge for months. So it always starts up in an instant at full power. Thats right. When youre ready, its ready. The worx gt 2. 0 comes standard with its most powerful battery yet the nextgeneration lithium battery with almost twice the capacity. Which means you get more power and more runtime than ever. Announcer and were going to prove it. We challenged a leading batterypowered trimmer to test against the worx gt 2. 0 to see who had more available Battery Capacity on a single charge. Both machines have 20 volts, but only the worx gt 2. 0 has the new highcapacity battery. Its higher amphour rating is like having an extralarge fuel tank. So when the competitor ran out the worx gt 2. 0 could keep cutting. On one charge with the gt 2. 0, i can get the front yard, i can get the backyard, i can do all the edging. Yeah, i can do the fences, i can edge underneath these steps, all around all this stuff. I can get the whole yard done on one charge. Its surprising how much power is packed into this little battery, but its strong and it goes through weeds, brush. Really big weeds in the backyard that were thick. Talking about the big boys. The bushes. [ chuckles ] it sliced them right off. Itll whip right through them. This guy you can get it out in your front yard and take it out into the weeds.
