Trimmer is JUNK
Didn’t even make it 1/2 way through the first piece of string line!! Now I have a $300 string trimmer that doesn’t work . And I have to say even when it did work, it was so poorly balanced it killed my forearm to use it causing muscle cramps long before the battery wore down. no one answered their customer support line. Ever since DEWALT bought them out this company has gone down hill.

    Great Value and Performamce
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought a few weeks ago and used a few times. Performs well with enough power for and battery life for my use. Only concern is blower head detaches periodically during use.

      So far I like it. It would be nice to have a second battery. I also have a little concern about storing the battery, have seen a bunch of fires lately.

      Convenient, light-weight, easy to use.
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the Ryobi RY40930VNM Blower and Trimmer Set, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations in every way. This battery-operated duo not only offers fantastic performance but also remarkable convenience and versatility. One of the standout features of this set is the shared battery system. The ability to use the same battery across multiple Ryobi tools is a game-changer. It not only saves you money by eliminating the need to purchase multiple batteries but also ensures that you always have a backup power source ready. This compatibility is incredibly convenient and demonstrates Ryobi's commitment to providing a seamless user experience. Let's start with the blower. With its powerful motor, this blower delivers an impressive airspeed, allowing you to tackle even the toughest outdoor debris. Whether it's leaves, grass clippings, or other yard waste, the blower effortlessly clears them away, leaving your outdoor spaces neat and tidy. I particularly appreciate the variable speed control, which allows me to adjust the airspeed according to the task at hand. It's perfect for delicate areas like flower beds or more demanding tasks like clearing large piles of leaves. Now, let's move on to the trimmer. This trimmer is a real workhorse. Equipped with a robust cutting mechanism, it effortlessly trims through overgrown grass and weeds, leaving clean and precise edges. The adjustable cutting width is a fantastic feature, allowing me to customize the trimmer's performance to match the specific needs of my yard. The ergonomic design ensures comfortable handling during extended use, and the lightweight construction reduces fatigue. The battery life of both the blower and trimmer is impressive. I have a moderately sized yard, and I can complete all my tasks on a single charge without any issues. The battery level indicator is a handy addition, providing real-time feedback on the remaining power, so I never find myself caught off guard. Another noteworthy aspect is the build quality of these tools. Both the blower and trimmer are durably constructed, designed to withstand regular use and the demands of outdoor conditions. I appreciate the attention to detail Ryobi has put into creating tools that are built to last. The overall user experience with the Ryobi RY40930VNM Blower and Trimmer Set has been nothing short of excellent. The battery-operated functionality, shared battery system, powerful performance, and outstanding durability make this set a fantastic investment for anyone looking to maintain their yard effortlessly. In conclusion, if you're in search of a reliable, versatile, and convenient blower and trimmer set, look no further than the Ryobi RY40930VNM. You won't be disappointed with its exceptional performance, battery life, and the convenience of using the same battery across multiple Ryobi tools.

        First 40v tool.
        Great buy for a 40v tool. Blower is heads above my 18v version.

          The tools work as advertised, and the battery has (so far) a reasonably long life. The only slight negative is the weight of the battery.

            Awesome Purchase!
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this last year after another gas trimmer failure. I don’t think I’ll ever move to all electric. But for what I need I can get away with smaller tools being electric. I’m completely happy with my purchase. I’m starting season two and it’s been flawless so far. 1 acre lot and I get 2 runs between charges if I don’t go crazy with the blower. If you use the blower turbo button it’ll run the battery down quick! But it’s been excellent. I’m so glad I moved on from gas. Becker, Mn

              RYOBI 40 V light weight and easy to use.
              I have 2 acres of area to cut. I need to blower for various things after I have cut the grass. The blower is great for small areas to use, however the battery ran down before I was finished.
