Overview

A PowerShare owner with spare batteries gets a compact shear and shrubber that swaps between a short grass blade and a longer shrub blade. The dual-action blades slice on both strokes, and a soft overmold handle eases the grip.

Two quick-change blades let one tool serve grass edges and small shrubs, and the low weight suits short jobs. The seller pitches it as a grab and go tool between full trimming sessions. The limitation is capacity and the missing battery.

Who it's for

Existing Worx PowerShare users with spare batteries will find a light trimmer for shaggy corners. The seller says it could serve as a regular hedge trimmer for small jobs. Buyers needing a battery in the box, or thick stem capacity, should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Two quick-change blades
  • Very light body
  • Soft-grip overmold handle
  • Shares PowerShare batteries
Cons
  • Battery and charger not included
  • Small cut capacity
  • Weight stated two ways

Performance notes

Dual-action blades cut on both strokes, so leaves and twigs are caught as the blade moves. The short blade suits grass and the long one suits shrubs, and the cut capacity limits stems to a small thickness. Run time depends on whichever PowerShare battery is used.
