I was extremely skeptical. but after my stihl gas powered died after a year and a half I was left extremely annoyed. so I already have a few Ryobi plus lithium tools so I decided it couldn't hurt. it didn't. I love this little thing. the 2Ah battery is a little lacking , but I have the 4Ah one and it rips for about 40 minutes per charge. so I can do a half of our acre of property on one charge. just don't buy the standard trimmer line refills for it. they are too wimpy. upgrade to the .080 trimmer line - yes it does work. don't go any larger though as it wont fit. it doesn't do really heavy duty very well, it can though but it struggles. so medium to light duty and it'll rip.

not much more than a toy. very light weight, but very light duty. with short string length and single vs double string, it just can't handle anything more than short, thin grass. it's painfully slow to trim with. it's not a weed cutter, just a grass trimmer, and fine for that, if it's what you need.

I love, love, love this product. I was skeptical thinking it would not be very powerful, but it is. Regular weed trimmers are so heavy I can not use them for very long so I was searching for something lightweight. I did not think battery powered would be the answer but it certainly was light weight, so I decided to give it a try. The only downfall it the battery does not last very long, maybe 2o minutes. I would recommend two, and two chargers.

w/ a new battery - it ran for about 1 hr. line auto feed works well. its a good light to med use tool. not for heavy vines - but worked well on most other. light weight & easy to use. a good addition to my 18v collection. its not a brush hog - but it did its job & well worth the $. just have good battery's. i found no fault with it. - i'm happy :)

I broke the auto feed on my original Ryobi and didn't want to purchase a brand new trimmer. This was the perfect solution for me because I already have the battery & charger. The price was reasonable & the shipping was free & fast.
