    Q:I have a Toro straight shaft attachment trimmer/edger that the motor has a problem, will my attachments work on this curved shaft model or would I need to buy a straight shaft model. This curve shaft is cheaper.

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hello, Wifeshandyman - Thank you for your question. They should work as long as they're universal capable attachments. The curved portion is the trimmer attachment, the motor has a straight shaft. I hope this helps!

            Daughter used it at her house for the past 4 months, occasionally. Shaft now completely broken. Bump feed all to pieces. Do not buy this if you plan to use it lightly more than twice a month.

            Awesome gas outdoor tool
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this gas trimmer after which my rechargeable one stopped working after abt 4yrs. This lightweight unit is easy to carry (12lbs) around while I’m trimming my lot that’s on a corner, so I have plenty of time with its gas capacity.

                Poor QC of trimmer head
                The trimmer head is defective and stuck in place. This design requires you Twist the arrows to align for locking and unlocking to acces the string. Poor design unlike I've seen on other weed eaters I've owned in the past

                  Awesome trimmer!
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just bought this trimmer last week and love it. It’s actually my third Ryobi trimmer and I’ve got all the attachments. Been using your brand for years!

                    Buyer Beware
                    String feeder head melted off metal hex nut on second use. No help in fixing it, ignored.

                      Can’t start it
                      Used this trimmer for 10 minutes. Shut it off to move some wood and I haven’t been able to restart it. I have tried multiple days. I am starting a business and need a reliable trimmer. Not sure if I will replace it with another Ryobi or another brand. I do like the attachment feature.

                        Junk
                        Had hitachi for 15 years, this didnt last last 2x! Doesn't bump. Line keeps breaking and must re-do entire thing just for the string to work. HATE IT! Going BACK today!
