Factory Reconditioned Ryobi 15-Inch 6 Amp Electric String Trimmer #ZRRY41002

Ryobi 15" Curved Shaft Electric String Trimmer. Accepts Expand-it attachments converting to a pruner, edger, blower, tiller, straight shaft trimmer, and brush cutter (attachments sold separately).
Customer Review: Major Lack of Quality Control!
I received this trimmer not knowing what to expect from reading the other reviews of this product. The trimmer motor unit looked well used, maybe what one would expect after 1 week of use. My major disappointment was finding the lower trimmer attachment tube was crushed to the point it would not come close to attaching to the head unit. After discussing this with the CPO rep, they did not have a replacement to exchange but gave me the number of an authorized Ryobi dealer, whom seemed clueless with regard to the reconditioned warranty. I finally took matters into my own hands and reshaped the end with pliers and a screwdriver. It now fits! BTW, you will get a cert saying this product "..passed a rigorous series of tests"...BS! BTW the handle and guard included were new.
Customer Review: most ruggedize electric on the market
This electric trimmer has power and adaptability. Several attachment from even other machines will operate on the trimmer. Blower, Blade edger, & small tiller.I used my previous Ryobi electric for about 15 years.

WORX WG901.1 18-Volt Cordless 3-Piece Outdoor Tool Combo Kit With Blower, String Trimmer & Hedge Trimmer

The WORX Cordless Bundle includes everything you need to maintain your lawn to professional standards: the WorxGT Cordless 2-in-1 String Trimmer and Edger, WorxAIR Cordless Blower/Sweeper, and WORX Cordless Hedge Trimmer. Each tool runs off an 18-volt rechargeable battery (two are included), allowing you to take care of multiple jobs on a single charge. With their ergonomic features and efficient operation, these Worx tools help you get the job done easily, leaving you with time and energy to enjoy the rest of the day.



These rechargeable, energy-efficient, extended-runtime tools give you a powerful edge on lawn care.


The kit includes two spools, one-hour charger, and two 18V battery packs.


The hedge trimmer's 3-position front handle adjusts to user for maximum comfort and control. View larger.

The rechargeable blower/sweeper easily cleans hard to reach areas on patio's, garages and shops. View larger.

The trimmer-edger's ErgoSum Design converts from a trimmer to an edger in seconds. View larger.
Battery Power: Efficient, Economical, Environmentally Friendly
Spend your time working, not searching for an available outlet, thanks to the 18-volt extended run-time rechargeable battery. The battery pack swaps easily among the tools, making for efficient and economic usage and allowing the Worx tools to go wherever you need them. Plus, the cleaner, quieter battery-operated motors make for a much more environmentally friendly alternative to loud gasoline-powered garden tools. The battery will recharge in about an hour.

Adjustable Design for Maximum Comfort
Every Worx tool is designed to fit you, with angled grips and adjustable handles for maximum comfort. They're built with ErgoSum Design Technology, so you can operate them using a natural grip and stance. After the work is done, each power tool has its own wall mount for easy, out-of-the-way storage.

Trimmer Edger with Adjustable Shaft
The shaft of the trimmer/edger extends or retracts with a twist, and the handle pivots easily to go from trimming to edging in a matter of seconds. The head of the trimmer also pivots 90 degrees to make light work of sloped surfaces and gives you access to grass under low-lying branches. A fold-away guard and twin wheel set add protection and accuracy to the 10-inch cutting diameter, giving your yard a professionally manicured look.

Hedge Trimmer with 20-Inch Blade
The hedge trimmer's front handle has three adjustable positions, and the rear grip is angled for maximum comfort. The overmold soft inserts fight fatigue by absorbing vibration and make the trimmer easier to hold securely. A center-mounted battery gives the trimmer improved balance for even more accuracy and control, and the 20-inch blade reaches stray twigs and branches with ease.

Blower / Sweeper with 120 Mph of Force
The cordless convenience of the WorxAir blower/sweeper takes this handy tool everywhere but the living room. A proper grip fights fatigue by allowing you to work in a relaxed, natural position, while 120-mph air speed sweeps away debris on hard surfaces.

All three Worx Cordless Power Tools are covered by a two-year warranty.

What's in the Box

Customer Review: WORX Yard Tools
I bought a 3in1 deal WORX brand. 1 is a weed eater & edger. 2 is a bush/hedge trimmer/shaper. 3 is a blower/sweeper. It came with 2 18 volt batteries & a charger & wall mounter. They are very light weight and adjusts to fit the person using it so you don't have to bend,etc. They are extremely easy to use & quick & no big deal about getting it out to use- no electrical cords, No pull starting for gas motors, no smells. THEY ARE GREAT!!! I am female & I can use them with arthritis & fybromyalgia, on my better days.
Customer Review: Not bad, better than expected!!
My wife both me the Worx 3 piece battery operated tools for Fathers Day. I'll start with the worst and move up. The Blower works but can't touch my existing 4cyl gas blower, so I don't use it. The trimmer, at first seemed to be not so powerful and awkward to use.That has changed, I found many adjustments for this unit that now makes it acceptable and works well. Still experimenting.... Now to the best! The hedge trimmer!! Wow, its 20inches long, very powerful for a battery unit and works as well as my old electric unit! The old electric unit went to the garbage and I just use this one. It can cut twigs that are thicker than a 1/4 inch with no problem. Very nice, not to worry about cords or gas. The package comes with two batteries, and they last and last. One good thing is that this is not a 3 in 1 tool. It is 3 different tools, and with the 2 batteries, any two tools can be used at once. Worx also sells these units as singles, in case you do not want the 3 piece package. The 3 piece package comes with a neat garage wall hanger, so you can neatly mount all three tools on any wall. In conclusion, at first I was not that impressed (except for the Hedge trimmer) but as I use these tools more and more, I'm getting more impressed with these products.

American Gardener YS24 YardStick 10-Inch 24-Volt Cordless String Trimmer

This battery-powered trimmer converts to a rolling lawn edger with just a turn of the handle. The 24-volt Power Core will give you up to 45 minutes of cutting time on just one charge. A 10-inch cutting swath makes quick work of yard trimming, and when you need more line, just bump the head and it feeds out more .08 commercial-grade line automatically. We like the symmetry and nice balance of this trimmer in hand, too. The unit stores in its wall-mounted charger, which indicates battery status with red and green lights. A great two-in-one yard tool for the homeowner.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste
Customer Review: Junk - DO NOT BUY
I bought this about a year ago from Sears. When it charged, it barely would make it through trimming the front yard (I have a small yard). Then it decided not to recharge at all. I went to Sears and they no longer carry it. I can not recommend this product. It was a waste of money.
Customer Review: 24V Cordless YardStick
I have recently purchased a 24V Cordless Yardstick Trimmer/Edger. I was not expecting much, but must say I am thrilled beyond words. It lives up to all the advertising hype. Since I am now elderly I got tired of fooling with a "corded" weed eater, and even when young never had much luck starting a gas powered one. It takes about 30-45 minutes to trim all the areas in my small yard and I have never had to recharge except between using In my opinion this is better that the Black and Decker which is also sold on Amazon. The main complaint with the B&D which I read in the reviews is that it needed to be recharged too often. AGAIN. I am so pleased with my purchase and as usual buying through Amazon was a good experience. I HATE to get out and shop and have bought a super-duper toaster oven as well a vacuum cleaner through Amazon...not to mention books as gifts for others.

Trimmer does the trimming very well. But try as I might I have not been able to find an additional battery. I have had several exchanges with the seller of this item and got nothing but a run around and no information about where I can get a battery. When the battery fails, I will have a useless trimmer. They told me it was a closeout item resulting in a lower price. There was nothing indicating this in the ad for the product and still does not show up in the ad. I feel I was flimflamed when I purchased this product. Blake

Troy-Bilt 31cc 2-Cycle Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer With SpeedLock #TB70SS

The Troy-Bilt 2-cycle 31 cc clutch gas trimmer features convenient EZ-Start choke technology, which allows the user to simply flip the choke, prime the engine, and then give a slow, smooth, easy pull for a guaranteed start. The EZ-Start technology allows the trimmer's engine to engage with 55-percent less effort than most gas models. With its rugged 31 cc engine, the trimmer provides plenty of brawn to power through the most ragged, overgrown growth. The trimmer's professional-style straight-shaft, split-boom design gives easy access underneath low-growing shrubs. The trimmer cuts in a 17-inch radius and features heavy-duty, 0.095-inch dual lines with convenient bump-head line release.

When it's time to replace the line, the featured SpeedSpool line replacement system is exceptionally easy to load and rewind, all without removing the spool or taking it apart. The entire trimmer feels exceptionally balanced and comfortable in the hand, and the ergonomic soft-grip D-shaped handle easily adjusts for both right and left-handed users. The trimmer's engine and upper handle is compatible with other Troy-Bilt EZ-Link attachments (sold separately), a feature that allows you to turn your trimmer into an edger, cultivator, hedge trimmer, blower, or pole saw. The trimmer comes with all the necessary oil for immediate operation, and is covered by a 2-year limited warranty.
Customer Review: Will not hold up beyond 2 seasons of use!
I got the TB-70SS from Lowe's thinking it would suffice for my homeowner needs (trimming/edging every 1-2 weeks) but it did not make it into its third season now. The first problem I had, as a few other reviewers also said, was with the bump-feel head which got beaten up after a few uses (and I know how to us a trimmer). Reloading line into the bump-head, which jams shut, meant getting the whole toolbox, spraying WD40 and hoping it would open. Regardless it took at least 20 minutes. I also had problems with the trimmer getting bogged down in a slightly bigger clump of weeds. The engine/clutch assembly is pretty heavy but doesn't have much power. In my second season of use the engine/clutch started giving me problems - the engine RPMs would redline without squeezing the trigger and at the end of the season (possibly due to the engine issue above) the clutch wore out and the trimmer's useless. This after following all the maintainence/storage instructions in the owners manual to the letter! Another issue - If you use this trimmer for edging (which you flip it over 90 degrees) you will notice that the fuel tank cap faces downward and the cap and the seal/washer inside are made of cheap material and they will start leaking fuel and I don't need to tell you the hazards of that alongside the hot engine. As another reviewer stated - good luck finding replacement parts (even filler caps) for this. Overall this trimmer was built with cheapo components, was never really thought-out and tested in the design/build phase. Never buying a Troy-Bilt again. For my third season I have purchased a Shindaiwa T222 which is from their HomePro line. Yes it cost a 120 dollars more than this piece of junk but you will feel the difference the mmoment you pick one up and use it. I just used it to get rid of some large weed growth from the winter and it just demolished the big, thick patch of weeds. The power is outstanding, its lighter than the TroyBilt, ergonomics are great and the best feature is that it has the Speed Feed bump-head which never takes more than 30-45 seconds to reload. See the video at, http://www.shindaiwa.com/usa/en/technology_2/speedfeed/index.php The only catch is that you will have to go to an authorized Shindaiwa dealer to purchase one (the don't sell them online). My suggestion to readers considering the TB70SS - it seems cheap right now but in a year or two you will regret your purchase. Put down some extra money right now and get something better like Shindaiwa or Stihl.
Customer Review: Line feeder is a problem
I purchased the model TB70SS String trimmer with cultivator attachment. All works well except for the line feed heads that came with the unit. Does the bump feed let out line? Absolutely, but the bump head uses entirely too much line. Never had this problem before with any other trimmer. The entire spool (15-20 ft of line) empties before the job is completed. I tried the bonus fixed line head that came with the unit but it is useless because the line keeps flying off the head while in use. I even went back to Lowe's to ask and ensure I was attaching and locking the line correctly. I am disappointed as this is my first Troy Built unit. I never had this problem with other brands in the past 20 years. I asked TroyBuilt on-line if they had any suggestions. They gave me their warranty blurb and told me to go to an authorized repair center. Did they not understand that there is nothing wrong with the unit except for their design? I guess I will get a universal head and try that. Not impressed at all with their answer or on-line support.

Accepts Expand-it attachments converting to a pruner, edger, blower, tiller, straight shaft trimmer, hedge trimmer and brush cutter (attachments sold separately).
Customer Review: Disposable - Junk
I purchased this trimmer new 2.5 years ago, and from the second time I used it, it has had difficulty starting. It takes many pulls, and then has to run in choke mode for many minutes before it decides it is able to crank up without stalling. Many times it never gets that far. Now the orange start (choke) switch has cracked. The trimmer has never been dropped or mishandled. Ryobi's answer is (and I quote - Shaina at Ryobi customer service): "It is normal for a part required to run the device to fail after 2 and a half years of normal use." Of course, it had a 2 year warranty and they do not sell just the plastic switch - they want me to buy a new carb assembly. Gee, it's only $45 plus S&H. This is the second Ryobi string trimmer I've owned that has failed in under 3 years of normal residential use.
Customer Review: string loading
Hi the string loading is pretty easy, but there is a trick. You have to have two pieces and go into it from the sides of the trimmer after lining up the arrows, then lock each string into the two wholes provided then simply turn the spool to to feed the line in. I have had my trimmer for 8 years and it has preformed flawlessly..

I bought this new. I took it out of the box, assembled it, then started it. But now the trimmer does not spin. Never wored once ! I have taken it to a repair shop and have been waiting 2 weeks. They have to order parts. I had to pay $31.80 for them to look at it. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I will say that it did start up nice.
Customer Review: You will be disappointed with the package
Poulan is a good brand, but this particular package is very disappointing. I thought when I ordered this product the Poulan Pro 17-Inch 25cc Gas-Powered Trimmer/Brush Cutter #PP325 $159.99 that I was getting both the Poulan Pro 17-Inch 25cc Gas Powered String Trimmer #PP125 $109.99 and the Poulan Pro Brush Cutter Trimmer Attachment #PP4000C $52.50 in one package and saving $2.50 by buying them in a combination package. However this package does not contain the brush cutter trimmer attachment. Instead it only contains the brush cutter blade and head. A second lower shaft assembly with the quick connect is NOT included in this package. So you have to actually take the brush cutter blade and head off with an allen wrench and reassemble it as a string trimmer when you want to change functions. Order the two items separately and you will be much happier with what you get, because you will be able to easily switch attachments using the quick connector. (The prices I listed are the current prices at the time I ordered).

Husqvarna 223L 18-Inch 24.5cc 2-Stroke Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer

Lightweight trimmer that is perfect for landowners and semi-professionals looking for the quality of Husqvarna's E-Tech engine and the ergonomic features unique to a straight shaft. Easy starting with air purge. Strong, braided wire cable drive and durable gear box that increases reliability. Comes with easy loading T35 bump trimmer head. Blade capable.
Customer Review: Light and Powerful
I just bought the 223L to replace a 5 year old, lightly used Echo SRM-210i which froze-up (piston is hung in the cylinder). Wished I had bought the Husqvarna when I bought the Echo. Pros: * Easy to start and stay running. (The Echo would start easy but it would tend to stall (and sometimes quit until it warmed up.) * Very lightweight. * Easy to maneuver - it just glides across the ground. * Powerful - this machine cuts through 1/4" brush with no problems using stock string. Cons: Only has a two year warranty compared to Echo's 5 years. However, the place I bought the Husq (Home Improvement store starting with L) had a 3 extended warranty for $39. The total price of the Husqvarna and the extended warranty was about in line with Echo's compatible model (which has a smaller engine).
