In retrospect before the motor finally burnt out I felt it never quite worked for me overall. It also seemed unwieldy, overall a design too compromised although it gives you some extra reach, not huge amount in my view after much use. Also, the grey handle in the middle came loose a couple of times during my use. From that point on I was very careful and tried hard not to jam it. In fact it had smoked a couple of times shortly after purchase in 2017 when I realised the motor didn’t seem to cut out adequately when it jammed (inevitable) – ie reached a branch slightly too tough to cut etc. However after 2 and a half years heavyish use the 1850HX motor burnt out, lots of smoke. I didn’t feel that I needed a pole trimmer and felt a standard hedge trimmer wouldn’t have enough reach. At the time I bought this as a compromise which I thought would work. We cut at least twice a year depending on growth.īACKGROUND: In 2017 I bought a RYOBI OHT1850X cordless extended reach hedge trimmer – ONE system battery. Our requirement is beyond the average cut in most gardens. I am in my late 50s so tools must be light and without cords too. We have some 300 feet of hedges on our main track alone – and other areas too - as we live on what was a farm. In the main the Ryobi garden tools are light to use (I am not keen on heavy petrol garden machines – I don’t have loads of upper body strength nor strong wrists nor keen on handling fuel nor inhaling the fumes n or fighting with tools that won’t start etc etc).Ī challenge is to understand the different Ryobi battery hedge trimmers on offer - and how to choose.
