The Worx Nitro 20V 13” Cordless String Trimmer delivers pro-grade performance to support a variety of grass trimming tasks—such as cleaning up sidewalk, driveway, and retaining wall areas. And with the ability to switch between trimmer, edger, and mini-mower modes, you can get more done in the yard with a single tool. The high-efficiency brushless motor runs 50% longer, is 25% more powerful, and delivers a 10X longer life than trimmers with a standard brush motor. With this added power, the 13” dual-exit cutting head makes trimming effortless—even in dense, overgrown areas. Extend trimming line with ease and efficiency using the intuitive push-button command feed system. While this cordless string trimmer remains comfortably lightweight, it is packed with flexible features that enhance control and reduce user fatigue. For example, the telescoping rotating shaft adjusts to fit the height and positioning of the user, while the adjustable auxiliary handle makes for more flexible operability. As part of the Power Share platform, it uses the same batteries as every other tool, outdoor power and lifestyle product in that family. When you’re working on hills or around hard-to-reach areas, the 90° pivoting head adapts to maintain precision cuts. The trimmer also comes equipped with durable edging wheels that maximize maneuverability and enable clear, crisp lines along grassy edges.

Q: does it come with trimmer line
A: Hello there! Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, the WG173 trimmer does come with trimmer line included when you purchase the tool, so it is ready to use out of the box. The trimmer uses 0.065" diameter line, which is ideal for light to medium trimming tasks around the yard.

Thank you for choosing WORX!
A: Hello there! Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, the WG173 trimmer does come with line when purchased new. It typically includes one pre-wound spool (WA0007) with a line diameter of 0.065 in., which is ready to use right out of the box. When that spool runs out, you can replace it with the same WA0007 replacement spool or reload it with the correct size trimmer line. Thank you for choosing WORX!
A: Hello there! Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, the WORX WG173 uses a dual‑line setup. This model is designed to run with the WA0007 dual‑line replacement spool, which comes pre‑wound with two cutting lines for improved cutting efficiency and more even trimming. The dual‑line design helps the trimmer cut faster and cleaner compared to single‑line systems, especially when working through thicker grass. Thank you for choosing WORX!

With its auto-spool feed, featuring POWERDRIVE, and 33% more run time, you'll be able to tackle tough overgrowth and heavy weeds with the Black+Decker™ 20-Volt MAX* POWERCONNECT™ Cordless String Trimmer and Edger. Quiet and easy to start, this combo tool is lightweight and a breeze to use.

Changing the game of lawn care, one yard at a time, the GT Revolution is 3 lawn manicuring tools in one. Converts almost instantly from a trimmer, to an in-line wheeled edger, to a mini-mower, so you get a professional-looking lawn that’s easier to maintain and costs less time and money. This is so much more than a weed-eater. It’s a Revolution. At less than 6 lbs, and with a telescoping shaft, 7 handle, and 6 rotating head positions, almost anyone can comfortably use the Revolution. The shaft is a full foot longer than the original GT, and the grips are ergonomically designed to give the user a firm handle on each of the three functions. And when you want to switch from trimmer to edger or mini-mower, it’s just a push of a button and a turn of the head. No tools needed. It’s powerful, too! Spinning at 7600 revs/min and running on the same 20V 4.0 Ah Powershare battery that powers our chainsaws, the GT makes nice, clean cuts. The patented Command Feed system gives you fresh line whenever you need it—no bumping or auto-feed. With an extra spool holder right on the handle, if you do run out of line in the field, you can just pop in your extra spool without a trip back to the shed.

With 21 cc gas-equivalent power from the Worx-built Brushless Motor 2.0, the Worx string trimmer delivers effortless performance on tall and thick grass.
