Seems like a good price and they have pretty good reviews. I know ryobi power tools are entry level stuff but I’ve always had good look using them for normal homeowner jobs. Anyone have any feed back in their gas powered blowers or weed eaters?

I owned a Ryobi blower. It started on the 7-8 pull consistently. It was ok.

I upgraded to Echo and like them much more.

I have the ryobi weedeater and use it more with the pole saw attachment. It is fine for occasiabal hunting camp use and annual palm tree trimming. I live in a condo with a lawn service; if i used gas power tools weekly, I would have echo or something better.

Have the gas powered weed eater, and edger/blower/tiller/pole saw attachments for it. Have had 0 issues going on 2 years now. Blower is pretty powerful.

I had the ryobi weed eater head, used attachments with it. Surprised it lasted about 5 years before it quick cranking. I actually went with a refurb ryobi commercial head to replace it last year. No problems thus far with it.

I have a blower that I got about 6 years out of. It took a few pulls to start but never had a problem with it. I gave it to my nephew to start a cutting yards and he still uses it.
