Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in String Trimmers
It is 5 star if you use it for light duty blowing & trimming. Blower is not strong enough for large amounts of heavy lawn leaf blowing and trimmer is not powerful enough for tall heavy weeds/grass, but both perform very well on your average lawn & driveway needs. Battery has enough power to provide plenty of time to wear yourself out and recharges quickly. Both are very light weight & easy to handle. Good value for price paid, just don't expect them to equal units costing twice as much.

This combo is weak at best. The string trimmer line got consumed in less than 15 min and flew off on first use. I was able to rewind it with some better quality string, but it can only handle the smallest of sizes, and it can be very difficult to get the string to feed. Also, while the trimmer head can be rotated for edging, edging is the string eater and there is no good way to gauge height, and it tends to blow material all over my legs. String trimmer rating is 1-2. Blower could be get solid, but the suction end gets caught on clothes every time I switch hands and the nozzle is just about useless. I really like the power for an on/off blower, but would be good to have a lower power setting to just move light material. I think the better solution is to put more than 30 min effort into designing the nozzle. Perhaps an angle of attack that is more flat and directional, meaning the nozzle needs to bent away and up, I may try adding my own from an old dirt devil shopvac. Finally, the 4 ah battery I use lasts well, but every time my wife removes it she drops it because she has to press in 2 sides at once (bad design). Overall the blower just blows everything in all directions, so it ranks at maybe a 3-4. Combined this unit is not more than 3, and I recommend not buying it.Read full review

Everything is great except the battery that came with the tools is dead and will not take a charge. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5.

I needed a small weed eater that would fit betwwen the fence and the concrete at our pool. This fit perfect and had the power to take down the weeds and grass. I have 145 feet of fence and did inside and outside with 1 battery. I still had enough battery to blow off around the pool and still had 1 bar left on the battery. I am thrilled the way it works.

I love the hassle free Ryobi system. The edger/weed wacker, is light weight and is powerful enough to do the small amount of edging I need. The blower though is so weak! My shop fan blowers harder. If you can, upgrade to a larger blower. It’s well worth it.

Small string trimmer, one 2aH battery and one blower. Haven't tried the trimmer yet; should suffice for my poor lawn, but a thick verge would not be served well I suspect. The blower... Even after reading other reviews I expected something much more substantial. It will work nicely for my garage and veranda, but I think I'll be wasting my time going after leaves on the sidewalk!

Trimmer is great - does everything you need! Blower is good for basic tasks, leaves and debris! This is the entry level blower and Ryobi makes better ones that will get more done!

The trimmer is especially easy to use & well balanced. The Blower is good for what it is. AC blowers are stronger but not as convenient. Excellent universal battery system.

The product is fine. The company I bought it from disappointed me. If you buy a open box item make sure you read the fine print. I had to go somewhere else to get the cover for the bottom because it was not with it. As for the products I am very happy with all of my 18 volt ryobi tools
