Worx sells them, and there appear to be a number of other brands selling compatible spools (we haven’t tested these and can’t vouch for them). Compared with the Ego, the Ryobi is loud—a squeal-like, whiny loud. We recommend using ear protection no matter which string trimmer you use. But even with padded ears, it’s easy to pick up on the Ryobi’s whine. If the Ego ST1511T is not available, our next choice is the Ego ST1521S Power+ String Trimmer with Powerload. It’s Ego’s previous version of the tool, and it is nearly identical to the ST1511T, other than that the shaft is not telescoping and the trigger design is slightly different.
This trimmer churns through thick grasses and stubborn brush with ease. This had our testers holding the trimer in awkward, un-ergonomic positions when doing smaller jobs. If you want a string trimmer to power greenworks pro through thick brush, this option works great. For cleaning up grassy yards after mowing, though, we advise you to look elsewhere. The respectable 15-inch cutting swath lets you get a good amount of work done.

It’s hard to overstate what an improvement this is to what’s often the single-worst aspect of using a string trimmer. With most other trimmers, the entire trimmer head needs to be disassembled and the new line manually wound onto the spool . Ego’s system is a much-needed improvement in this area. I bought the first Ego product, the 12″ string trimmer, when it first came out about 4-5 years ago. It was a disaster due to a poorly designed head that made line feeding frustrating, no matter how carefully the string was wound on the spool. I bought this 15″ model when it first came out as initial reviews suggested they finally designed a working head.
