What each is built to cut
The Agillo’s 3-tooth blade, brushless motor and twin handle make it a genuine brush cutter for tall grass, nettles and light brambles. The WG183E is a pure line trimmer for lawns, edges and stubborn weeds, with Worx’s AutoFeed extending line each time you restart the switch. If your ground throws up brambles even occasionally, only the Einhell is built for it.
Weight and convenience
At 2.9 kg, the Worx is far easier to carry for long edging sessions and comes ready to run with two batteries and a charger. The Einhell is heavier, sold bare, and needs two Power X-Change batteries — great value if you already own them, a bigger outlay if you don’t. Its split shaft does pack away neatly.
Which should you buy?
For brambles and rough ground, the Einhell Agillo 36/255. For tidy lawns with the least weight and fuss, the Worx WG183E. If you want Worx with a blade, see the Worx Nitro WG186E.
