WORX 20V MAX Cordless GT3 Grass Trimmer – WG163E The combination of rain and sun we have had the last few days has left our garden resembling something similar to the amazon jungle. As lovely as it is having a wild lawn when you lose two cats and a one year old in it, it’s probably time to give it a trim. The WG163E GT3 Grass Trimmer from WORX is a three in one tool, that can transform from a trimmer to an edger and then into a mini mower quickly and easily. This cordless trimmer has a compact body and after about 2.5hour the 20V MAX Li-Ion battery is ready to use, it weighs 3.5kg but thanks to the two wheels you don’t feel it, you just need to direct it where to go. The trimmer head can be angled from 0 to 90 this allows you to cut sloped surfaces and under hedges or over hanging plants (although you will have to crouch over to do this), it does take a bit of firm pressure to adjust the head, but this may loosen up over time. The handles can be adjusted to find the optimum heights for comfort and stability, the 1.65 mm line makes short work of grass and weeds, whilst the wheels guide you along the edge of the borders for nice clean lines, the flower guard helps to protect the plants and lawn ornaments. The addition of the Command Feed means that you can automatically feed out more cutting wire with a push of a button, the built-in blade will cut the wire to length when you start up the machine again. This means there is no need to stop what you are doing to extend it manually; these reduced interruptions and keeps your hands cleaner for a little while longer. The battery was lasting about 20mins per charge, it might be worth having a second battery on charge to switch over for continuous gardening. The WG163E is a versatile tool and easy enough to use, merging two or three products into one often results in substandard performance but that certainly isn’t the case here, the reasonable price tag makes it good value for money, perfect for small to medium sized gardens.
