It was kind of a pain to load the string on it. I agree on the mower part I mean there are now cordless riding mowers – but not really made for the runtime to meet 3 acre yards. There is some pro cordless mowers that compete with pro zero turns – but you’re talking about a 17K mower. I like Echo’s speed load – other companies use a version of it too – namely husquvarna and stihl. Similar to how you describe the other system – you run in the string 1/2 way and the head has a ratchet mechanism that you can crank back. Yes it takes all of 1 minute maybe 2 but very simple.
All EGO chargers charge all EGO batteries. The rapid charger will charge any EGO battery faster than the standard charger but all chargers work interchangeably. The new POWERLOAD system on this trimmer is great. Works as easily as advertised, insert the string, pull it even and push the button. It is one of those things you can’t believe no one had some up with before…

Just feed the line into the head and press a button to automatically rewind. Carbon fiber shaft is stronger than any other on the market, so strong that it’s guaranteed for life. I guess I have been fortunate in my EGO experiences. I have both the blower and hedge clippers and they have been great.
This is usually the go-to line size for the Pro. This includes the string trimmer spool pre-wound with 17 feet of 0.095 in. Yes, though we offer a standalone edger tool, you can use the string trimmer as an edger by turning the tool sideways and adjusting the auxiliary handle for comfort. With the battery attached, the POWERLOAD String Trimmer has a nice balance to it—not too heavy on either end. This balance and its lighter weight helps keep arms from tiring out too soon.
You simply feed the line through the trimmer head to its halfway point, press the self-feed button, and let go when the line gets to a usable length. I bought into the Ego system with an older string trimmer, the blower and the chain saw. I do wish the runtime on the blower were longer even with the 5.0Ah battery that came with the chain saw. The only negative experience I’ve had is when I broke the trigger on the string trimmer.
EGO is the way to go for home owner, battery powered , lawn equipment no doubt. The power is beyond impressive, and the Power Load feature is worth the additional investment. Needless to say, I can maintain my entire yard (well, front or back, can’t do both without recharging) with ease.
The other really notable feature of the new EGO Carbon Fiber String Trimmer is the Powerload auto-feeding head. Anyone who has wrestled with loading fresh line into a string trimmer head understands this. Some systems work better than others—but none work as easily as the Powerload system. However, weight distribution plays a big part in how comfortable the string trimmer actually feels. The feather-light shaft doesn’t mean a whole lot if the trimmer is unbalanced. You wind up having to physically overcompensate by keeping the heavy side lifted up.
