Product Description

Amazon.com

This attachment for Ryobi’s 2- and 4-stroke gas TrimmerPlus units will extend your hedge-trimming reach--without making you teeter on a ladder. Because the attachment clicks onto the shaft of the gas-powered trimmer, you’re gaining at least an arm’s length in reach, with a powerful, precise hedge trimmer at the other end. The 16-inch replaceable blades run fast and smooth, and the unit is surprisingly well-balanced in hand. It’s superior, we think, to many of the cordless units on the market. The extra reach and secure control make this product a winner.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

4.0 out of 5 stars trimmermania, January 22, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Ryobi HS720R TrimmerPlus Add-on Hedge Trimmer (Lawn & Patio)
I just purchased this little beauty to maintain my shrubbery. It would have helped if I had read the instructions before starting. I was having a little trouble keeping the motor running on the power head, and she didn't want to start too easily either. But after consulting the manual I realized I was trying to run it at half choke! OOPS! The only reason I didn't rate this 5 stars is because of the frequent maintanence requiring the removal of an access plate to apply lubricant. Aside from this fault - I was impressed with the ease of operation and the height I could trim to.

3.0 out of 5 stars Awkwardly Heavy, January 30, 2005
This review is from: Ryobi HS720R TrimmerPlus Add-on Hedge Trimmer (Lawn & Patio)
I purchased this a couple of years ago to add to my collection of add-ons for my Ryobi trimmerplus. I used the Ryobis for a few years on a small commercial basis (less than 20 lawns/week), so I feel I'm pretty familiar with the unit. I took on a job for a customer to tame their front hedges that needed to be trimmed back to 6' high. My issue came when after an hour of holding this thing above my hips, my shoulders felt like they were going to burn up. My arms were screaming at me and I still had a ton of work to do on this row. I used a 6' step ladder too. I'm no slouch when it comes to manual labor, but this was something I regretted buying from the getgo.

I cannot see any reason to buy this add on. Even if you buy it from Harbor Freight remanufactured, it still costs more than a quality electric trimmer. If you need something cordless, then research a battery operated unit (I have no recommendation here) or gas powered stand alone. If you only have hedges that are knee to waist high, then this is still an expensive add on over an electric trimmer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally getting control of those hedges., June 13, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Ryobi HS720R TrimmerPlus Add-on Hedge Trimmer (Lawn & Patio)
This is ANOTHER great add-on for my Ryobi trimmer! I hated using my old cordless trimmer, and the hedges in my driveway showed it! This new trimmer is making short work of that chore. Good power and well balanced. With all the TrimmerPlus attachments, my yard has never looked better!
