5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a Quality Hedge Trimmer, October 5, 2005

I purchased this trimmer after returning a Black and Decker that turned out to be defective. After being totally disgusted with the lack of quality in trimmers under $100, I started looking around to see what else was out there. I have a Ryobi click-link gas powered string trimmer and so this unit fits right on it. I decided to go for it. This unit is all metal (as in NO PLASTIC anywhere!) and has nice carbon steel blades. It easily cuts through 1/2 inch branches and will gnaw its way through 3/4 inch branches with minimum fuss. You can't stop it. I just trimmed 3 of my 12 foot tall Japanese maple trees and it never stalled once. I have it attached to a 31cc power head. The extra reach and swivel capability means I can easily reach the top of my trees from my ladder. The trimming job on those trees used to take hours with a long handled pruner. Now I can get it done in minutes. This tool is actually comparable to the Stihl hedge trimmer that sells for a lot more money. If you have a power head to put this tool to use, you can't go wrong. Other hedge trimmers in this price range aren't near the quality of this thing, and you don't need a cord to run it. If there is anything on the down side here, it would be the weight. It's a bit heavy to manuever for me so it would be very difficult for my wife to manage. This is no little ladies tool though so keep that in mind guys.

Works great. I like the articulating head. I like the fact that there is no plastic on this hedge trimmer. Troy-Bilt has quality products. The only thing is this hedge trimmer attachment gets really hot after just a short time. This may be normal. It trims my shrubs with no problem. I would recommend this trimmer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hedge Trimmer for Troy-Bilt, January 3, 2007

I have used this headge trimmer a few times and have nothing but praise for it. The trimmer bar is 16" long which means if you have a thick hedge, you may have to make 2 passes at it. But, for doing shrubbery and bushes, it works beautifully.
The cut is smooth and even. The unit is fairly light in weight and so the fatigue factor from use is delayed significantly.
It runs smoothly without vibration and is very easy on fuel usage.
I highly recommend this hedge trimmer attachment. I don't know if it can work with other brand power sources, but with Troy-Bilt it's great.
In fact, over the past 30 years or so, I've purchased many Troy-Bilt items and have never ever been disappointed. Troy-Bilt makes a quality product.
Besides having the best price anywhere for this attachment
