What Customers Are Saying
The Hedge Trimmer attachment is a mixed-performance product. Many users found it effective for trimming hedges and bushes, praising its flexibility, power, and ease of use. However, a significant number reported quality and durability issues, with the attachment breaking or malfunctioning after limited use. Some also noted it struggled with thicker branches and was heavy to maneuver for extended periods. The product may be suitable for light-duty trimming, but may not meet the needs of those with more demanding requirements.

Would Not RecommendUsed this maybe 5 times and on the 5th something internal broke. Troybuilt the manufacture was no help saying they have no history of issues with the shafts/gear failures in their system. But a quick search of reviews and you see there are other examples where customers have experienced the same failures. Buy a trimmer from another company.
waste of money
Would Not RecommendIt doesnt work at all, thing oroduct is poorly made and doesnt work at all. Within 5 mins from the time i first attached it to a power head (that is manufatuer recomeneded for use with trimmer plus products) the trimming blades stopped engaging. Do not buy this product it is poorly built the mechanical parts inside the shaft that make the blades isolate failed befire i could even trim on single bush. Once this happened i disasbled the connection to the power head concerned the bevel gear in the...
This is NOT a robust machine.
Would Not RecommendOne star because I couldn't give fewer. I was very excited to use this hedge trimmer. It looks well built. Apparently it isn't. This thing broke in the first minute of use on a branch about 1/8" thick. What a let down.
buy somehing else
Would Not RecommendThe best thing i can say is that this looked great coming out of the box. It died 10 seconds into the first cut. It got clobbered by 1/4” boxwood. It still looks great going back into the box for return though.
terrible product
Would Not RecommendThe idea behind it is good. On my second one. first one lasted 5 minutes. the second lasted almost 10 minutes. something inside the gearbox keeps stripping. figured for the price it should be a decent product. Far from decent.
cut my job time down. no pun intended.
Would RecommendAs soon as you get it home from purchasing this, take the gear box panel off on the unit and pack the box with grease. I also added a drop or two of oil on each cutting blade and surface that slides. Ill update review later on longevity
Broke within 30 seconds.
Would Not RecommendBroke within 30 seconds trimming 1/4 thick branches on a holly bush.
Don't get one
Would Not Recommendthe unit heats up and stops working before I can finish the hedge.
not well suited for most hedges
Would Not RecommendThe concept is GREAT, The execution not so much. The maximum branch size is pretty small for must shrubs that contain at least one or two larger stems within. The small gear box connected to any semi decent gas operated power head just doesn't have enough stamina for most normal trimming jobs. Mine got hung up and broke within about 15 minutes of use. I returned it and went with a more tradition unit that is battery operated and more appropriately built for normal use. Lowes was great,...
Yes and No
Would Not RecommendI bought this yesterday and I tried it out it worked very nice. Today I go out to use it and it just doesn't move the engine is going and works fine but the hedger just doesn't move back and forth.
