I bought this model the other day and finally got to use it today. The hype is real. The Line-IQ and Power Load features are worth the price by themselves. A couple of underrated features are the string outlet holes in the head are low to the ground. You can cut low to the ground without having to tilt it forward since it doesn't have the bump head causing the string to be an inch or so higher than it should be. Second, the flat forearm area on top of the head unit. I find myself bracing the motor end with my forearm to keep it braced and steady. With some, this part has some harsh corner or angle and with gas trimmers, it's often very hot. Battery powered means it stays cool and the wide, flat surface makes it comfortable on the forearm. Every time I thought to myself "I should give it some more line", it just lets some out at almost that exact moment. I used the preloaded line and didn't run out, so I haven't gotten to load any new string into it yet, but I did play around a bit with the power load making it short then hitting the trigger and watching it magically put the line back out to the proper length. It's quiet. It's more powerful than I need at my house. No gas to mix and wait for it to go bad. No carb to mess with. No air filter to change. Just pop the battery in, pull the trigger and marvel at the technological wizardry in your hands. I trimmed for the first time this year so it was more than I normally would have to do and it still had 4 bars worth of battery meter showing. I got this and the 765 CFM leaf blower after picking up the Ego LM2125SP self propelled mower last week. (All three were on sale at Lowes at the time) All three tools do exactly what they folks at Ego say they do. They work well, are convenient, and very simple to use. I am in my 50's and work all day 5 days a week. I don't want to have to work on or worry about if my lawn care gear is going to give me any problems when I need to cut my grass.

[@YardBrah]

Well my friend you said it all and I agree with you 100% 😂😂😂👊🏾 can’t go wrong with the ego line up my next ego purchase will be the light as it’s on sale for $120 right now 😂😂😂 Thanks for the awesome comment my dude! 😊🔥🤙🏾🙏🏾

[@raybowles8587]

I got one yesterday. On a review I watched they said it took a while for the battery to charge. It was half charged when I got it out of the box. I put it on the charge and it was charged by the time I got the weed eater all put together. I have 1 acre, and after going around my house and along a ditch that is about 50yrs long, I didn't even use half the battery charge. I was amazed. So far really liking it. Love the line IQ and push button feed.

That’s awesome yes I love this think I just got the 15” with powerload as well and it’s not bad but you can’t beat that line iq it’s too goo-ah-d! 😊🙌🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾

I don't see this model going on sell anytime soon so I wanted to get it while it could still be useful this season. My other battery trimmer is a Ryobi which I generally like but its a bit top heavy compared to this one and I find it annoying to have to change sring frequently and the cap is very hard to take off.

Ive seen several videos on this product. Thay all say the same things. Well balanced, feels good in the hands, auto line feed is the best, super good lookin', feels like a rocket, and on and on. Never anything sbout the power, how long the battery lasts, how much the thing costs, how much another battery costs, will it work commercially. Im assuming the reason they dont talk about these things is because its not in their best interest to do so.

Thank you for watching! I recommend skipping any of the cheaper EGO trimmers and go straight to this one! Don't get me wrong the other's are not bad it's just the cap is on so dang tight it's frustrating. That's on any EGO trimmer that doesn't have the line IQ. Using a flathead screwdriver works but we are going for convenience right... having to add another task of having a screw driver on deck everytime you use the cheaper EGO trimmers is not convenient in my eyes lol Let me know what you think when you get it I just used it on the backyard and my face hurts some smiling so much LOL! 😂🤙🏾

Received mine today and after two hours of experimenting, I could not get it to spool the string with any consistency. Going to change the head tomorrow to confirm that I have a faulty (head) out of the box. Also, if one side unreeled to its normal 5.5 inches (for each side), it would leave the short side uneven. I'm positive that's not how it's supposed to work. Still gave it 5 stars on Amazon!

You know I noticed the twist line get's stuck often but when I changed to regular line it was smooth sailing from there!

It looks like one of the main things between this model and last years is the line IQ. Do you think it’s worth the extra $100 for that instead of the regular bump method? Also is there a second way to get the string out if the IQ feature doesn’t work? Thanks for you’re videos btw!

[@YardBrah]

I have both now carbon bump and carbon line iq… for me the line iq is just new tech that makes life easier.. but the powerload with the bump feature is def a good combo… if it didn’t have the powerload and just bump I would pass… to answer your question though if you got an extra $100 to burn go line iq 😊🙌🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾

What happens if the Line IQ sensor fails? Is it replaceable? Does it ever feed too much line?

[@YardBrah]

You know I don’t know what happens if it fails but yes you can def replace it i see the bolt! And this thing never misses always the perfect amount of line! 😊🤙🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾

How was the vibration compared to a gas trimmer?

No vibration really! Gas trimmers I feel this is smooth as silk my friend! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾

I used to do commercial lawn care so I'm pretty picky about weed eaters... That being said I love everything about this one except for the stupid line IQ. I know it's not the popular opinion but I hate it because there's no way to control the length of the string. Most of the time it doesn't even run it out to the cutter on the guard. I found the trick is to press the power load button so it will pull the line in and be what it considers too short, then it will feed more line back out to about 5 or 6 in on each side maybe seven if you're lucky... That's why I say I love everything about it except for that. You know how on a strong gas powered weed eater you can take the guard off and have a large swath which makes it easier to do feathering and swing and keep it level. I know a lot of residential guys wont understand that but a commercial guy gets what I mean. it's easier if you have a longer string and large swath. The motor on this trimmer is plenty strong enough for much longer string especially if you're running lightweight string. I wish they would give us a way to disable it or adjust the length of string that it feeds out. I tend to dig in a little bit with a small swath like 16 in... Which usually turns out to be more like 12 to 14 🙄

@@jawa6988 they have the same exact weed eater with bump feed no line iq

[@jawa6988]

@@Ben_ansley I couldn't find the exact model with bump feed or a way to change it for the bump feed. I ended up getting the cheaper model and I'm fairly ok with it .. the IQ one was better except the IQ is dumb lol. The cheaper one I got will run about a 22ish diameter if you use next smaller string thickness and bump the trigger so it doesn't have time to realize it is past the load threshold set point they configured... I considered just hacking it and basically removing everything except for battery and motor... Use my own speed controller and BMS board, install a potentiometer for better variable throttle, a heatsink or fan on the motor shell, stuff like that... Then it wouldn't shut down until it fries the motor or ESC lol

[@kennethbyrd3436]

What size line (min & max) does it take?

[@YardBrah]

You know it’s weird I use the ego .095 line and it’s amazing then I use the .095 echo and it gets jammed… not sure why but I stick to ego line 😊🤙🏾👊🏾🙏🏾

[@chungtong1238]

Does the line iq trimmer spin clock wise or counter clock wise?

[@YardBrah]

Counter my friend 😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾

[@robrichman3314]

Split between the LINE IQ or Traditional Bump. Do you find teh line iq works and will continue to work? seems like you can't manually feed so you have to rely on the line iq tech to auto feed it as needed.

[@YardBrah]

Oh it feels solid for sure… skip the bump nothing worse than feeling like you’re destroying your machine just to get line 😂

[@robrichman3314]

@@YardBrah i have had other people say stick with the bump as the line iq isn't fully ready for prime time. it is fairly new so not sure how it will last longterm. decisions...

I got the Line IQ and it believe it or not, it's pretty damn nice. At first I wasn't so sure, but I am so glad I got it. It works really well.

[@Natalietran1012]

I am so excited around your voice and the way you review , EGO brand needs too see this video. I would like to buy one for me . Is it light or heavy for female ? Thanks

[@YardBrah]

Thank you so much for the compliment! This is very light compared to their other models! You will love it! I would also look into the worx gt revolution that is probably the lightest of them all!!!! 🙏🏾😊

[@kt9495]

I picked one up and although I need some practice, I edged and trimmed with it yesterday and did a decent job. It’s not too heavy for me and I’m only 5’2. I don’t find it awkward but I have a Thoracic Outlet and Carpal Tunnel, so my fingers go numb when using. I wish it had an on button with a speed dial. That might help someone like me. But I’m going to pick up a strap and a Darwin Grip to see if it helps. I say go for it. I have the select cut Ego mower and could not be happier.

[@takenusername]

Where’s the motor in this thing? Is it at the head, or does the carbon fiber shaft house a drive shaft which leads to a motor up in the handle?

[@YardBrah]

Def has a drive shaft motor is in the head 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥

[@dougboal7425]

Anyone else having a problem seeing their line when weed eating on the multi-hear tool? I have it flipped upside down for edging with the string trimmer and I can't wear where I'm going with the guard in the way. I've never had this problem with other weed eaters.

I'm in the market but have no idea where to start. Would this take care of heavy duty weeds as well? Tall dead grass? I have an area that the rider mower cannot access. Would this work? Please help

[@YardBrah]

This is not a sponsored ad at all I purchased this myself directly from Lowes. I have reviewed a ton of weed trimmers and this is by far the best! Yes it will take care of heavy duty weeds this trimmer is a monster! If you're cutting brush... I would recommend looking into a brush cutter if your weeds are crazy out of control but this does the job very well. Speedy, aggressive and smooth is how I can describe this string trimmer! Thanks for tuning in! 🙏🏾😊🤙🏾
