Motor is good, string trimmer head is garbage.
Use it for edger but not weed trimmer. The quick load string trimmer head has a bump cap that will fail in just a few months and Milwaukee has gone the garbage route of not selling the 2$ cap. Instead they tell you to purchase a new head at 40$+. Pretty pathetic for a company that usually has good customer service but it looks like they are going to way of all other companies and just don’t care about their customers anymore. Was told echomatic pro head. pn21560031 fits and lasts.

I tested this Milwaukee blower against 4 other 18v leaf...
I tested this Milwaukee blower against 4 other 18v leaf blowers (Milwaukee vs DeWalt, Makita, Ryobi, and Ridgid). The Milwaukee had the absolute best throttle response of the bunch. When you pull the trigger you get power fast! One of our testers said it was like a NASCAR compared to the others. But the Milwaukee has an annoying high pitched and loud sound, which is hard on the ears (and your neighbors). It was also the most expensive of the group. We rated it a solid "B+". Take a look the the YouTube video ( https://youtu.be/x2miKdpovUQ ) to see the full test.

Falls way short!
I own several Milwaukee power tools and have been happy with their performance. I decided to purchase the brushless string trimmer instead of a gas weed eater because I already owned multiple batteries. VERY disappointed after several months of ownership, the trimmer will run for a few minutes, overheat and stop; head has also worn out after only a few months, common issues! Glad I didn't invest in the other attachments as I was planning on doing.

Melting the battery
The battery terminal is melting after a month of light use. Milwaukee didn't do much testing on this one.

Not durable for the price
I’ve had this just over a year and used it 12 times. As you can see part of the head wore off in no time. Not covered under the warranty apparently and also you have to replace the whole head instead of the plastic clip on cover. Extremely disappointed considering I bought this with all the other attachments

Broke in 1st week, 15-20 min per charge
Bought this to use around the property, battery life was terrible 15-20 min max. On its 3rd or 4th charge the battery wouldn’t come off the weedwacker. Once I got it off the battery looks to have melted. To make this worse I tossed the reciept and Home Depot won’t return so I’m stuck with a $300 piece of trash.

OVERHEATS!
Over the past 6 months, I purchased the weed whacker, leaf blower, hedge trimmer, 2 chainsaws, polesaw kit with (2) 12.0 & (2) 8.0 batteries and chargers.
The weed whacker and leaf blowers draw so much power from the batteries, they are melting the contacts on the batteries. The amp draw on the weed whacker also over heats and shuts it down. Great for small jobs, but for the amount I paid, I want to be able to do more than just trim the edges of the driveway. $500 worth of batteries shot.
