Works well, battery lasts long enough to do my entire yard and still have about 50% left over. However the battery does make it a bit heavy.

This is my 2nd Ryobi trimmer. My 1st one lasted almost 4 years, and for the price, who cares. Very satisfied and will buy again when needed.

Fairly light weight tool. Plenty of power. Does a great job of weed eating and edging. Very reliable, my second one.

Plenty of torque, and I used a 2 amp hour battery, used it for quite a long time cleaning weeds from a brick sidewalk. Good battery life. The string head auto feeds on every trigger start, no bumping it on the ground, so that took a bit to get used to. Nice to not smell like 2 cycle oil afterwards!

This trimmer has an unusual amount of power, the battery charges quickly. I was really pleased with it. However, after using the edge trimmer feature only about 5 times, the metal on the head cracked. Seems it doesn’t do well going back and forth between trimmer and edger. Great if you don’t want to use the edger.

I bought this about two months ago and it is very light to hold and trims to the height that is required, has a rollar tire to help in side edging and design, has an adjustable height and it has a switch protecter to orevrn accidental trigger,

I’ve been using this trimmer since June of this year. It goes through a LOT of trimmer cord which prompted me to buy the bulk trimmer cord, 320ft reel.It’s very noisy and the string advance mechanism jams frequently. Moving the trimmer head between trimming and edging is problematic, I have to constantly turn the trimmer upside down and use my hands to accomplish this. I can’t reliably rate the durability of this product since I have not had it long enough, BUT based on my use I don’t think it will last that long. It’s very good at collecting dust zand grass clippings on the trimmer head and I feel that this will eventually burn out the motor.

Is 3rd one we have bought. They keep getting better and better. We love the battery life. We have used the warranty and found it acceptable

Only got to try it out once, but it met my expectations. Very powerful for a battery powered garden tool. Battery last long. Was able to do my whole land (and have a big surface to cover). Batteries are expensive though.
Kiel Ryan (verified owner) –
The trimmer is well balanced and easy to use. It changes to the edging position and back quite easily. The battery clicks easily and firmly in place, but is a little hard to remove – pinching the release button and pulling at the same time requires strong hands.
Trisha Pfeffer (verified owner) –
Love it! Lightweight and powerful with easy access to change from trimmer to edger. Tool was purchased for edging ability and is great. Hope this model is never discontinued.

I BOUGHT THIS ONE TO REPLACE A FAILED UNIT SO I COULD REUSE THE SAME BATTERY.
Watson Tromp (verified owner) –
Just purchased this and right out of the box it performed beautifully. I like that it is light weight and safe to use!

I bought this after I could no longer get my gas 4-cycle trimmer to work. It’s nice not having to use gas and check the oil and wonder if the trimmer would work. It was not that old either, now I just press a button and it starts. No more frustration and works almost as good as my gas one. I was able to use just on string (wire) trimmer for half the summer and counting.

This was purchased to replace the one that burned up. The original one lasted a few years. It did get a lot of use. Hopefully this one will last longer. Once you have invested in the batteries and other items that use the same batteries, it’s hard to change to another vendor.

I bought this to replace, exactly, one I bought a couple years ago that developed a bad front motor bearing. I feel like I’m kind of “invested” in this model, since I have two batteries and a leaf blower. Powerful unit though, battery lasts and lasts…

VERY POWERFUL, IT DOES THE JOB VERY WELL.
