WORX 20V 12" Cordless String Trimmer & Edger WG163 — 2‑in‑1, 5.5 lb Lightweight with Command Feed

The WORX 20V 12" WG163 is a lightweight cordless tool that converts instantly between a string trimmer and an in-line edger for precise lawn borders and fast trimming.

This 2-in-1 yard tool combines a high-speed 20V motor with WORX Power Share batteries to handle routine trimming and edge work without the weight and noise of gas. At just 5.5 pounds and with a 12" cutting diameter, the WG163 is designed for homeowners who want a nimble, easy-to-use solution that reduces equipment clutter—one battery fits other WORX tools, and the Command Feed spool system makes reloads effortless.

How quickly does the WG163 switch between trimmer and edger?

Conversion is tool-free and takes seconds: tilt the head to the desired position or rotate the shaft for in-line edging. The simple mechanism makes it practical to alternate functions while walking a lawn edge or tackling varying terrain.

• 2-in-1 design converts without extra parts or tools
• Head tilts 90° to reach slopes and borders
• Compact 12" cutting path balances reach and maneuverability

What makes line feeding and cutting consistent?

The Command Feed spool dispenses line on demand with a push-button control so you only advance line when needed. Combined with a 7,600 rpm no-load speed and a 0.065" line diameter, the system produces reliable cuts while minimizing downtime for spool changes.

• Push-button Command Feed gives instant line when required
• Includes spare trimmer spool for quick swaps
• 10" effective line length for balanced trimming power

How does the WG163 help create straight, neat edges?

Rubberized support wheels guide the tool along sidewalks and driveways to produce cleaner, straighter edges with less guesswork. The wheels reduce gouging and provide traction, while the adjustable spacer guard protects nearby plants and landscape features.

• Rubberized wheels stabilize edging and improve line precision
• Adjustable spacer guard prevents accidental damage to flowers
• Lightweight design reduces fatigue during long perimeter runs

What do I get in the box and how does battery compatibility work?

The package includes the WG163 20V string trimmer & edger, two 20V maxLithium Power Share batteries, a charger, a preloaded trimmer spool, support wheels, and a safety guard. The included batteries are cross-compatible with the WORX Power Share ecosystem, so you can swap them into many other 20V and 40V WORX tools.

• Includes 2×20V Power Share batteries and charger for immediate use
• Works with other WORX 20V/40V products—one battery for multiple tools
• Complete kit includes spare spool and assembly accessories

Who is this for: The WORX WG163 is ideal for homeowners with small to medium yards who want a single, lightweight tool for trimming, edging, and maintaining clean lawn lines without the noise and maintenance of gas equipment. It suits gardeners who value convenience—easy line feed, balanced weight, and battery interchangeability—plus anyone who prefers a maneuverable tool for tight spaces, borders, and sloped areas.
