Good Deal? [Posted on 2004-11-03]
Just ordered this item, it's $5 less than the Ryobi 105R, has a more powerful motor (6.75 amp vs 4.7), it's built by Ryobi and has the same 2 year warranty. It uses the more common 0.080" line (the specs on Amazon are incorrect) but I'll see what happens when it comes time to find replacement parts for it. Maybe a great deal? Time will tell. I'll update at a later date.

Best electric trimmer I know of, great price [Posted on 2006-07-09]
This is made by Ryobi, and the equivalent Ryobi unit costs like $20 or $30 more. I had an older Ryobi unit with a 5.5 amp motor, but this one is noticably more powerful. I burned up the motor in my old Ryobi because it wasn't powerful enough. I prefer electric tools when possible. Always starts, no gas or oil. But, most electric trimmers just aren't competitive to gas trimmers. Though of course there are still more powerful gas units, this unit is at least in the balpark of an average gas trimmer.

I did replace the head with the GrassGator Universal Bump & Feed. Though it says it is designed for gas trimmers, it fits this unit. I didn't even try the stock head. I hated the head on my old 5.5 amp Ryobi. So, I replaced it with the Grass Gator unit. So, when I bought this unit, I took a look at the head it came with, and wasn't too impressed. I suppose it is probably fine, but since I already had the Grass Gator unit, I went ahead and used it. This combination is the best trimmer I've ever used.

Waste of Time and Money [Posted on 2006-10-29]
This product is a total waste of time and money. The motor burnt on its first use. Customer support is non exsistent I tried to contact them but to no avail well I lost my money.Amazon will not assist because it was not sold by them. The reviews on Amazon were very misleading. Customeers indicated that Mc Culloh is built by Ryobi but I hardly think so. My previous unit was made by Ryobi and it lasted aproximately 6 years.This unit lasted 6 minutes.
