Nice product. Could use a tiny bit more power though. The grass clipper works OK. Run time is about 20 minutes so it works good on my small gardens and yard. The best part is the hedge trimmer attachment. It works great on small hedges. Might note ever need to get those big heavy clippers out again. Stays charged even when stored off the charge due to the battery type. So for me the Worx Works.

Over many years since 1969, I've purchased numerous cordless grass shears, but none can compare with the WORX WG800. This product's best feature is its Lithium-Ion battery pack that has a very long cutting time, long life expectancy, and absolutely no "memory effect" that plagues the "el-cheapo" Nickel-Cadmium batteries found in lower-quality products.

The WORX was designed in Italy and made in China, but it out-performs ALL other units I've used, American or foreign.

I would recommend the WORX to anyone who has a yard, regardless of its size. If you are concerned about not having enough battery power, buy two and keep both fully charged and ready to go!

The WORX is very versatile, because it also INCLUDES a Hedge Trimmer blade. I store my WORX in its original shipping carton, and I clean and remove the blade(s) after each use.

I have had other types of trimmers and the batteries don't last so you end up either throwing them away or they sit for years. I like the fact that this trimmer has the Lithium - ion battery. It seems to last forever and its nice for trimming fine bushes. Not good on thick branches. The attachment change over is very easy. I wasn't impressed with the long attachment. The openings were to small for hedge trimming and they are not strong enough for big branches.
