For about 13 years now, I have owned and operated a licensed lawn maintenance business in northern Idaho and have been running the dual battery Makita commercially now for 3 years and have had ZERO issues with it! I did upgrade to a speed loading head and would highly recommend it! It has more than paid itself off with gas/oil mix savings for how much I work it. I haven't used any other electric trimmers and went with Makita because I already had 16 batteries, but again, no complaints at all. I rarely utilize the feature, but it is very handy to have the reverse spinning option, it automatically reverts to the regular rotation after 5 seconds. It's handy also for getting the backside of large square posts on vinyl fencing, as it's not possible to hit one side with one type of fixed rotation. You can also feather the throttle at any of the 3 speed settings. Great product!

I bought the dewalt 20v max trimmer a couple of years ago. I hadn’t yet got into the flexvolt battery set and was on a small city lot with bluegrass. For that it worked fine, but wasn’t up to snuff for the woody brush at my current place. I replaced it with a stihl fs240, and didn’t look back. I wonder if the 60v flavor would have done the job, but I love the additional blade options and the handlebars with a husky harness is a lot easier on my back than any of the d handles I have used.

Always a treat to watch you test things. It never ceases to amaze me the ingenuity you display and setting up your homemade testing. There's never a doubt to the validity of your findings and just how close in comparison your testing is to the real life average users method of usage.

I bought two EGOs earlier this year to weed whack my half acre, very steep, hillside. The first one had the standard bump feed head, and the other was the model tested here. I was able to complete the job significantly faster (probably twice as fast) using the model with the auto feed rather than the bump head because the steep uneven slope caused me to waste line when I'd inadvertently strike the hillside. Something to consider for those working different terrains. After watching this video, I'm thinking that Milaukee or Dewalt would be nice to try, but the reason I went with the EGO was the massive battery. Two large batteries are definitely needed for doing a half acre job, so you can alternate the battery in service vs on the charger. Awesome video! Thanks for the hard work.

It’s hard to beat it’s performance for the price. Picked it up because I was tired of running out of gas and mixing gas and oil several times during the season. I’m on board with these battery powered yard tools. They’ve come a long way in the last 10 years. I haven’t had any problems with the torque slowing down but I’m just trimming my yard, no brush or anything.

The lower noise factor is great on the electric trimmer I use. I can actually listen to things on my headphones while weed whipping.

Bro thanks for doing all these test not even that but all the charts and I was thinking of how to lay them all out from best to worst based of the charts you did but you did that as well at the end!!! Out of all the things I’ve learned in college studies is performing test runs etc and this was cool of you to do thanks again!

I bought the same Ryobi in the video a week before seeing this video. I love the trimmer and it reminds me of a gas without all the noise. I haven’t used a gas trimmer probably since 2001. Previously I had a Ryobi hybrid trimmer that worked with either 18V battery or extension cord. I almost always used it with extension cord for more consistent power and lack of breaks to change batteries. The motor recently burned out while using a battery on a simple task, the trimmer was nearly 15 years old anyway… I bought that new Ryobi and it was phenomenal. I’m finally able to tackle over grown grass that 6’+ that the old trimmer could never affect.

Hey Devonne, I saw your comment under a post knowing that you have a battery powered lawn mower, isn't it great? I’m doing a survey about using the electric outdoor powered equipment including the mower, but I’m not an electric mower owner. Could I exchange some opinions with you so that I might get some in-person experience? I’d like to pay 100 dollars for a conversation with you, appreciated!

Another great review. Thank you! As a homeowner I went with the Ryobi for its price and versatility. For $250 you get the trimmer, 4 ah battery, charger and a reasonably powerful blower. Unlike some of the competition, you can still use existing attachments available everywhere. I originally wanted the Ego but they made it proprietary, so I skipped it. I can trim 320ft of fencing, edge 640ft of sidewalk and blow all the debris away at my moms and still have power left to do my own house.

Thanks - bought the DeWalt and used it yesterday and it worked great with the Royobi attachments - pruner and edger. Ran it about 1 hour and battery was still 2/3 full. Used the trimmer, then edged, then pruner to cut down some small trees.

Great product review as always. I've been using the Makita for 3 years. I love it. It is crazy powerful; I have never needed to run at the top speed. I usually get about 30 minutes of trimming on the middle speed. I have several properties and normally go through one full load of line and two sets of batteries each time I trim. I would by another one in a minute.

makita/dolmar and stihl are in my opinion the best for professional use. normally i can trim about 10km of lawn edges until i need to reload 16 ft of line. the trick is to (only possible for with the full pro gear) remove the lower part of the protection and use a bit longer line, while keeping the rpm down. additionally you can cut wide enough, you then can switch directly to the really big lawn mowers. cut down times to roughly 2/3 of normal. with the stihl kmr135a (multimotor, can mount loads of stuff, so totally overpowered), i get a little over 1h from the biggest non-backpack akku and about 30 min of cutting down hip height grass. one of the biggest factors in how clean the cuts are and how much akku/fuel you use, is the line. makita blue twisted roughly halfs the power consumption. (twisted is much sharper but not as strong, so needs to be kept at lower rpm).

I love these videos and actually make my decisions on them. I am a Makita man now as a result and despite the cost and battery life of the Makita comfort is very import when trimming for longer periods. Since I have about a dozen batteries I will go with the Makita. Thanks ProjectFarm

Ryobi sponsored a engineering capstone team at my school (GT) to work specifically on battery trimmer vibration, so hopefully there will be improvements seen in their upcoming models as the team was able to figure out some relatively straightforward solutions to the problem. I was in the same class but worked on another project.

Great video, thanks! I went with the Ryobi as I’ve been using their gas string trimmer, and Xtend It tools for many years. Once the gas motor started to have issues, I swapped it out for the electric version. It works equally as well as the gas motor it replaced. It’s nice having one motor to run a string trimmer, pole saw, hedge trimmer, leaf blower, tiller, edger, etc.

I just bought the EGO and love it. I have problems using my hands due to a spinal cord injury many years ago and find loading the line difficult and thought I would try the self loading of the EGO and it works like a dream. The weight of the unit doesn't not bother me as I live in N. California and have a yard the size of a postage stamp, does everything I need it to do and more. Compared to my old gas trimmer, its a beast.

Was literally having this convo with some coworkers early last week except they are dead set that you should only gas powered weed eaters for both personal and commercial use. Would’ve liked to seen some comparison with gas powered in the torque and the cut time/grass buildup while using tests. But all in all very helpful. Was definitely looking at getting the desalt trimmer before this video. This was that final reassurance to go ahead and get it. Thank you.

you won't regret it, having used gas professionally, the new battery ones aren't lacking in anything but run time. mine lxt x2 makita goes almost 45mins. I'd see if you could rent or try one without a shaft, the in head motors are crazy no vibration. not sure if Dewalt has a shaftless model, but definitely worth looking into.

Excellent work, this may be the best review I’ve ever seen for any prooduct. Thank you. By the way I bought the Milwaukee fuel with attachment capability and it is excellent. I already had batteries from other Milwaukee tools so it was pretty much a done deal already 😁 but it serves my needs perfectly as i just use it on my yard in a typical subdivision.

I have the makita with the string trimmer and its really impressive. I bought the articulating hedge trimmer for blackberry bushes and other heavy vines around the property and it works really well and will even cut tree sprouts up to about 5/8". Last week i purchased the pole saw attatchment and drive shaft attatchment. Ive been cleaning up fruit trees and trimming oaks and cedars with it. It works really well but the vibration is much more noticable when it starts chewing up limbs. Overall im very happy with my property care setup now and could even go out and make some decent money with this tool.

I've learned that if I have a lot of tall grass to cut with a trimmer, it's best to walk backwards while you trim. This keeps the grass from bunching up around the head. In the end, you have grass that's laid down nice and even, with no clumps. The string seems to last longer too as it's not trying to recut the grass clippings.

@MrBradshawbenjamin

2 жыл бұрын

What about the grass that you step on before you cut it? Have you ever noticed any cutting differences due to that? I definitely agree about the clumping, and walking backwards seems good to me when applicable. Often by a road edge or something it's dangerous.

It's the best trimmer I've had by far (I've had and tried many over the years) and have had no issues trimming my 3/4 acre property a few times without having to recharge. I hated to pay what it cost, but VERY glad I did. I also have the 60v circular saw, so getting the extra 60v battery helped make the decision a little easier

I was excited to buy my ECHO trimmer a few years back and it has performed well; that is, until the batteries no longer worked. Since I have the previous 58v model I assume that ECHO knew about the battery issues and moved on to another battery form. Unfortunately, I also have a blower and a chain saw and each one uses these defective batteries. Until battery technology improves I would urge everyone to wait until batteries last more than a year. A big thanks for all of your informative reviews; you are a wonderful resource!!!
