    Cut like butter

    I was able to assembly it with no problem. The hardware (Nuts & Bolts) was missing but I had some in my shop. The weed eater was easy to start and worked great. The majority of the power tools are by Ryobi. I like the bump weed eater head works great and easy to add the string.

  • Top critical review

    Really not what I thought Ryobi should be

    It feels sturdy. It is heavy, It starts easily if directions are followed. The weedeater idles ok but hesitates when the throttle handle is squeezed. Once it does take hold the high speed is way too low as if it is bogged down, maybe like it is not getting enough gas. I do not find an adjustment for high or low speed. Really disappointed in this Ryobi Product. After 6 uses the string gets stuck in the head and cannot get the string loose or the head to twist to take it apart. I twisted it as shown and the head broke. The string is a real problem to thread through the tunnel. I was going to change heads and put one on that has 3 strings that are threaded individually. So far I have not found a way to change the head. Ryobi is NOT a desirable string trimmer in my opinion.

  • Amazing

    I was very sceptical about ordering this weed eater off line. I am so glad that got this. It has worked better than any I have bought in the past. It started up within a few pulls every time. It was so powerful. I rarely used full throttle. The red line with it was very strong. It never bogged or slowed down. The design kept the grass and weeds off. It never hung up. Just amazing all the way. Love it. Recommend it. 100%.

  • Good trimmer

    Nice little lawn trimmer. I've only used it a few times but ran it about 30-45 minutes straight each time. Haven't used one of my attachments on it yet but it has a little more power than the last couple of trimmers that I've had. Can't vouch for the longevity of it, but it can't be worse than the last two I purchased. (1 Craftsman and one Troy bilt) I really like the way you spool the line on it, somebody should have thought of this a long time ago!

  • A little heavy, but is balanced pretty good. Refurbished is the way to go.

    Unit is LIKE NEW, could find no evidence it was ever used. Went by the instructions, and it started on the third pull. I used it quite a bit the last couple of days. Excellent starting and has plenty of power. Runs great and cuts great. Very good value.

  • Skeptical... atleast i was

    Wasnt sure what brand to purchase as many are basically the same but prices vary... the machine overall is quite impressive, waist high grass moving rapidly and it did not bog down,get overwhelmed or jam up at the head. What usually takes an hour was cut down to 15-20 with this ryobi machine. Well built and solid...will last for years. I do recommend this mach, purchase it you wont be disappointed

  • The only thing I don't like is the plastic tab on top you have to hold down to make the string turn.

    The trimmer works great and has plenty of power and easy to use.

  • Great product

    Came early. Easy to assemble. Filled it with gas mix and it fired on third pull. Idled immediately. Used optional hedge trimmer first then the weed trimmer. Absolutely no glitches. Would definitely recommend. Really great product.
