We purchased the EGO multihead combo kit plus some other accessories last year. We have a large yard and do a lot of gardening and yardwork so it gets a lot of use. As a woman in my early 60's with some arthritis, I've found it easy to use and not too heavy. It seems to be very well made, and we've used every tool multiple times. The string trimmer especially has been easy to use, with less problems like excessive string breakage that my previous electric trimmer had, so I can get the job done quickly and without frustration. I am really looking forward to gardening and yardwork this year as the ECO has been making the heavy work so much easier.

I've bought multiple products from EGO Power+ and all of them have been excellent. The power head continues that trend. I bought it because I needed to do some hedge trimming and some brush cutting. The head is nicely shaped and nicely balanced and comes with a handle and a shoulder strap--that's a good touch that wasn't always included in other tools. The shaft is carbon fiber, makes it strong and light. It didn't come with a battery or charger. That suited me because I already have 3 chargers and 4 batteries from other EGO tools and they work well with this head, so it was nice to not pay extra for something I didn't need. I got an extension, a hedge trimmer, and a bush cutter to use with this head. They were all very simple to snap on, had a good fit, and were easy to take off and change to other tools as needed. The motor has plenty of power and, as mentioned above, works with all my EGO batteries. I've been able to use it to trim several trees and shrubs both with and without the extension pole and I've used it to clear some fairly solid brush. All of that was done with the motor on low speed and it went through everything (including saplings a bit over an inch in diameter) with no problems whatsoever. There are several other attachments I'm looking forward to buying to use with this head. Very happy with this purchase and strongly recommend it.

I love all of my Ego attachments. This powerful little pole saw does the job with ease! The pole is plenty long as well, but I’ll likely end up buying the extension pole as well down the road. It’s not heavy, stores easily, and works great. If I had to gripe about anything, it would just be that I don’t believe that initially I should have to purchase the chain oil separately. A full bottle doesn’t necessarily need to be included with the purchase, but enough to fill the little oil reservoir would make sense.

Remember the TV series "Home Improvement", where the protagonist's usual solution to any problem was, "It needs more power!" You won't be saying that about this hedge trimmer. Or remember the movie "Crocodile Dundee" and the line said to the knife-armed mugger, "That's not a knife, mate. [pulls out enormous knife] THIS is a knife." Well, you can deliver that line with this hedge trimmer. It's powerful. It's big. Also, I was trimming trees above our fenceline when I hit a hidden cast iron pole flag holder. The trimmer instantly stopped, there was no discernible damage, and I was able to keep going. I trimmed trees overhanging a fence line up as high as I could reach without a ladder, and trimmed a small tree in our front yard. The battery charge was barely dented; I'd guess it was at 90-95% when I put the battery back on the charger. The downside, which is almost worth removing a star but not quite, is that the combination of the power head, battery (a relatively small 5ah), and hedge trimmer are heavy. Actually, that's not quite true. They are HEAVY. Really heavy. Add to that the fact that the combo of the power head and the pole and the trimmer itself are very long, and you've got something that is difficult to balance and unwieldy due solely to the big trimmer weight at the end. It is tough for me to use for any extended length of time, especially overhead. And I'm a big muscular guy. I found myself wishing that it was shorter by default and an extension was an option, the same way EGO did their pole saw. But I'd give every single other thing about it 6 stars if Amazon would let me, so I guess it balances out (wry pun intended).

Quality of the product is very good. Spent way too many hours comparing Ego vs Milwaukee and others. Love the idea of battery power for my small yard. Connecting the edger or trimmer to the power head is not always easy, I typically have to twist it around push the engagement button, and generally wiggle it a bit to get what I think are the spline connections to mesh up between the accessory and the power head. The power head made a whining sound at first, but went away after a few uses. The one thing I had to adapt to was the string trimmer. The string comes out of the head about 1.5" from the bottom. My previous Shindaiwa trimmer had the string exit within 3/4", maybe less. Not big deal, but you need to get used to the idea that you need to tilt it if you want the cut height shorter than 1.5" which my lawn is. Battery life is excellent. So save weight, I use the 2.5amp battery in the edger/trimer and the 4amp battery in the ego blower. The newer power head with the digital speed is easy to use and switch between. I'm new to the whole idea of battery power, and I'm loving it. Never did like pulling on those ropes to get it started:). The Ego carbon fiber power head and accessory have worked well, quality is good, and the odds are I will purchase more Ego products.

This does what I needed. I used the snowblower attachment. A little heavy but worked great for the snow.

Works well to prune back small branches on trees, shrubs. Also works well to cut down beds of irises and day lilies in the fall. Very versatile positioning of blades.My only complaint would be the weight of this tool, heavy for working over head. Also no clear way to add grease to the bearings.
