Guard broke
Great tool, spool wrapped up a lot. The three screws holding the guard on all snapped off. Now lost its purpose for me.

    This morning the motor overheated and melted the plastic cover out of the blue and started to drip oil I did not burn myself just by luck. I went to the store today and they told me that they cant do nothing because the 90 days period is over and that I should call Ryobi. Seems to be a very unsafe product and the store did not seem to care.

    Weed Eater
    Good power and endurance. Went through high and thick weeds on the high setting. Battery lasted for about 40 minutes this way.

      Autofeed on this thing does not work
      I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing. Seems this is a common problem. Basically the line gets pulled to tight inside the spool and gets solidly wedged in place. I've tried the line it came with as well as other line I already had. I tried winding tight and orderly as well as loose. Nothing makes a difference. Whenever I free up the line, it will auto feed one or two more times before it jams right up again. I've had other auto feed trimmers that didn't have this problem, so I know it CAN be done well. Other than than I like the easy to flip head with the wheel. It's plenty strong, and it gets pretty good battery life. I just end up spending half the time untangling trimmer line.

        Great Value
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased yesterday and used it on a large yard often called a "weedeater's nightmare". worked great. battery held up and no extra battery or charge was needed; plenty of power for typical home use. I used it on the low setting. I was clumsy using the edger, but hope to improve over time. Purchased to add to all my other 18v ryobi tools. glad i did.

          It’s good when it works
          This is my second Ryobi edger. They both broke off in the same area. Underneath where the line goes I will call it a guard it’s neon green it keeps the line from tangling ...welll two of these broke I don’t see it as a part to buy and I’m not about to buy ANOTHER one. I don’t think I’m too hard on edging the lawn. I don’t like it but when it worked it was cool. I have several Ryobi products.

            Works good, whole package together made for good deal. First one, the line cutter broke off within 3 minutes. But repackaged, took back to HD, told what happened, they refunded that purchase and I went into store and bought another one, it has worked great. Another advantage of buying from HD, Would have had to wait for 3 weeks to get replacement part. Only reason i gave 4 stars, little heavier than the Ryobi we have been using for last 4 years

            GREAT TRIMMER
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had the same string trimmer prior to purchasing this one. The only difference is the battery. We had the string trimmer for a little over three years and it wasn’t working correctly with the string dispensing. We have a huge piece of property here in South Florida and that string trimmer would get the job done no matter what. We are very pleased with the performance of the string trimmer and the quality. The edger is great too. Like how it’s all together in one tool. The string trimmer, on average, is used for approximately an hour and a half 1-2 times a week. It trims and edged with ease. It is also very easy for us to handle as we are both petite women.

              I have used this product fir 24 hours, with the trim line that came in the unit. I have used both the edging and trimming settings. Edging took a little to get used to but once I did it was a breeze and very effective. (see images) Using the switch to flip between the two settings only seems to work to go to the edging setting. I have to pick it up and mess with it to get it back to trimmer, and when I do and the unit is rotating, I can hear specs of dirt grinding in between - and keep in mind this is after just maybe 2 hours of use. While weed eating, the trim line has, on more than one occasions 1) broken down to less than 1/2 inch and not extended out due to being twisted inside the spool (no image) and 2) extended, not auto cut and get caught up on the rotating motor! (see image) I was able the yank it out the first time, but I can't get it out the second time so, after about 4 hours of use, I will be returning it.

                Easy to use!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this less than a month ago and it was easy to set up and use. I tried out Ryobis 2-in-1 fixed line and blade head on it and love it! I have a fairly large size front and back yard and this puppy powered through like a champ. Of course with only 18v powering that motor it had a tuff time with the big thicker weeds that I was trying to get through on the over grown areas of the back yard but other than that no complaint! I love the easy foot switch to swivel the head that makes work a breeze. I do have to say I wish it came with a shoulder strap. I put one on my self but that might be a nice little add on. It’s not heavy but I was out in the yard for an hour or more and it started to feel heavy. Speaking of that I used the lithium 18v batter and as I said an hour plus and this weed eater just kept pushing through. 5-5 stars would buy again but I won’t need to!

                  Lightweight yet powerful!
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a 5 foot 3 inch woman who was looking for a durable yet lightweight battery powered trimmer. This product delivers the power I need while also being lightweight and easy to maneuver. Easily switches over to an edger in 1 second! The battery is rechargeable and interchangeable with my other Ryobi products.

                    Easy to assemble. 4 out of 5 stars only because it appears that a 2nd grade child assembled the spool that it came with!!

                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Ryobi P2080 trimmer was so fun to use and easy to assemble. It trims like a pro! I purchased it yesterday and used it for the first time today after charging the battery overnight. What a great product! I highly recommend this P2080 trimmer to anyone.

                            Never liked doing yard work
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Never liked doing yard work until I started using ryobi battery powered products. I’ve been using the trimmer and edger combo for about 3 years now and I LOVE it. No gas, no oil, never had a problem starting up, battery works well. And if the battery runs out I just plug it in to continue while it’s charging. Couldn’t ask for better equipment. Just bought a lawn mower today. Can’t wait to use that! Thanks ryobi!!!

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, I purchased the 18v+trimmer/edger do to its mobility of having to help with weed abatement on 63 acre Ranch my husband Sean and I maintaine. I was and am truly impressed. Its strength, power, and ability to be able to cut through some tall grass and chaparral was amazing. Mobility was key due to the backcountry we were clearing was a necessity for the job. We were able to complete our job. And I must mention the quietness and no gas smell which can make this job annoying. The trimmer is 5+ in my book. Great job guys. We solar charge our batteries too.

                                Excellent tool except the line feeder attachment
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like all the features of this model and the downgraded model I purchased earlier except for the line feeder attachment, It's too flimsy and tears apart after a while. The lesser version actually cut thru the guard. I'm stuck with the rotary blades with the model I'm writing this review with because the line attachment actually tore the "holding" frame apart. (it worked good for 3 spools and I was really beginning to love it) I'm gonna answer "no" to the next question only because of this problem otherwise I would highly recommend it.

                                Just what I hoped it would be
                                I have never had a battery trimmer before, so I was a bit worried that it would die before I got everything done. Not only did it do everything I needed it to do, but it still had half the battery left. About 20 minutes. I also used it as an edger and that worked much better than expected. It trimmed the drive quick fast and clean. I'll add a picture. It does use string, but so did my gas powered trimmer. I'm very happy.

                                  Very user Friendly
                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Went out to buy an edger and came across this trimmer/edger while in the store. Read a number of reviews while standing in the aisle and decided to give it a try, despite another customer volunteering their experience with battery issues. Got it home, assembled it in no time, and immediately put it to use. It easily converts from trimmer to edger with your foot. It did a wonderful job edging thick Florida grass along the sidewalk & driveway and trimming around the mailbox & bushes. Only time will tell if we experience problems with the battery, but so far so good. Very happy with this purchase!

                                    first cut in five year
                                    I have not trimmed my yard in the 5 year I have lived in this home, now that time has come to an end. I have owned the 4cycle ryobi weedwaker, never would survive past three years (I am rough on the tools) I was thing about the 40amp setup, but went with the 18volt plus one because I already have several of the batteries and did not want to add another type to the charging wall. It two batteries to complete the front yard and cut down a lot of over growth along the bricks. I will say yes to this tool

                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this online. I was looking for cordless electric power. This is a replacement for my gas string trimmer. I got tired of going to trim and forgot I’m out of fuel. Also trying to pull start my gas trimmer is a pain. I now have a quieter trimmer and don’t have to breathe 2 stroke fumes for a half an hour. I also don’t have to bring to a shop for a tune up or check oil and change air filter. My new electric trimmer just have to plug in after use. Easy and clean. Good balance and fairly light weight. It is super easy to switch from trimming to edging. Very well designed. Super happy with my purchase.

So i bought this trimmer for a test. I feels so light weight and so easy to use, no cheap assemblies and no cheap parts on this, so glad with my trimmer i bought a drill and impact so waiting for it to arrive. Great tools by RYOBI!!!!!!
