Ryobi garden machinery

Post by MFCGMFC »

Hey all

been looking through the Screwfix catalouge and seen the ryobi garden tools, specifically the strimmer with multiple attachments

has anybody used them? I've heard conflicting reports about them so I don't know whether or not to go for them? I know ryobi have a good reputation but I've never used anything made by them?

Is there garden gear suitable for everyday trade use or is it just for the keen amatuer?

TIA

I would say that they are suitable for keen amateur / occasional trade use. For heavy use that your job is reliant on than Stihl seems to be the manufacturer of trade choice.
