“Battery Lawn mower”

Wayne P.
5/24/24

Except for having to charge the Battery 7 times not a bad lawn mower. I was just lucky that I own several 18V Ryobi tools and I finished my lawn in one day. Else it would have taken me 3 days to mow my lawn. Thanks for such a good tool. I was a bit skeptical about a battery lawn mower but not bad at all Wayne Perschbacher

“Dishonest Corrupt Company that Commits Fraud”

Christina K.
9/24/24

I own about 7 Ryobi lawn tools. I took my mower to a repair shop (recommended by Ryobi) and it came back missing a tiny part--a small gray plastic piece that fits into the mower handle. I asked the shop if they found it and they said no. They also said they could not order it for me. I contacted Ryobi, they sent me a booklet and made me find and tell them the part #. I was promised 3 months ago that it was being sent and asked to rate the service. I gave them 5 stars. Well, turns out they lied and the part was never going to be sent. They told me today that they don't have that part and to go to the repair shop...folks we have too many negligent companies like this who commit fraud. I say enough is enough and I am never purchasing another Ryobi tool again nor am I ever shopping at Home Depot again.

I purchased a weed eater and at first i didn't think it would be strong enough but it is. Friday I went over to Home Depot to buy a pole saw. While I was there, i was talking to a Home Depot employee and he told me that he had one and loved it. I am thinking about a ridding mower but I am retired and can't afford one right away but I will get one.

I purchased a pressure washer from Home Depot and the washer was missing the Turbo Nozzle, so I called Ryobi customer service and was on hold for two hours. I then left a call back number and was never called.

So then I went on chat and after 45 minutes the chat lady said she would email me the forms to get a nozzle, but she sent it to the wrong email address.

The following day I tried again to get the issue solved, but no such luck.

I give up and I will never buy a Ryobi product ever ever ever.

I am happy with my Ryobi 20 inch lawnmower. The mower is lightweight but it has good power and automatically increases the power in heavier grass. I have a 1/3 acre yard with slopes. The Ryobi mower is superior to the Worx mower I previously owned. I like the adjustable handle and the easy-to-use upright storage position. The Ryobi is a good mower at a good price.

I had a Ryobi leaf blower for about 5 years and it finally quit (the fan disintegrated) last month.
I bought a competitors blower & returned it with in a day as it did not measure up to the Ryobi. I am glad that I did as the new blower is a newer model (naturally, after 5 years) & has better power than my old one & works well on wet & dry leaves. Because I also have about 16 other 18v all in one Ryobi tools I now have another spare battery. Love the product & make good use of all of the 16 tools I have

I bought an electric lawn mower and electric pressure washer in 2020 During COVID. I am already having to have a new batter sent for the lawn mower and the pressure washer trigger handle is not working. I was told the part number to order myself. Both are just two years old and I am already having to deal with defective products. I have a lawn mower Gas that is 20 years old and still runs. Live and learn get gas and not electric as they do not hold up like gas products do. Think twice before you waste your money.

I have been buying Ryobi cordless power tools including lawn tools like grass trimmers and for the most part have been a great value... BUT when the time comes to service one all I can say is pack a lunch or a tent and be prepared to travel... I live near Burlington and the Ryobi rep for Home Depot Burlington just told me I had to travel to St Catherines or Toronto for repairs... so I called non affiliated local repair shops and they said they couldnt get Ryobi parts... so today is the last day as I move to a brand that is supported locally.

Tip for consumers:
great product but non existent support for repairs.....I am referring to non warranty repairs

I purchased the Ryobi battery powered bard Nailer and will tell you this product is up to the task. From thin, soft wood to hardwoods. I have used this on a dozen product and would not have been able to complete the "honey-do" list with out, not to mention my wife is able to operate without and difficulty.
Highly recommend.

In purchasing several Ryobi Tools from Home Depot, I find that competitive prices are no match with the Ryobi Tool manufacture. The value, and economics of the Ryobi Tool manufacture since incorporating with Home Depot exceeds and surpasses the competitor by a long shot. They are motivated by their own design engineers and by the company that sponsor's them. Not only the satisfaction that the customer obtains from the tool design, and its function but it outlast the competitor of its retail price. No complaints - Very satisfied.!.

This Ryobi electric mower with a Lithium battery pack replaced another brand's electric mower with a sealed lead-acid battery and it out performed and the battery has a longer duty cycle. Great value for the money spent.

I am happy with the small bench grinder, but have one concern. The holes for mounting the spark shield assembly were painted over and would not allow the screws to go in. I had to tap the holes to allow the assembly.

I like the blower and weed eater so much.The weed eater did a good job cutting the grass i was so happy with the tool. Also i blew the grass off the walk and driveway with the blower that it did a good job. I am glad that i brought the products that i would not trade them for anything else.

Just purchased a Ryobi 40V weed trimmer and am unable to get it registered. Even the chat service is completely moronic. The automated robot responses are completely irrelevant and the "human agent" is worse. I really hope the trimmer is better. I will NOT be purchasing Ryobi products in the future.

This stick vacuum is, light weight, has good suction, is great for dog hair. The filter and roller brush are both very easy to clean. The vacuum was a good price. The vacuum comes with wall charger and 18v battery, as well crevice tool and brush.

My last 2 packages of line have been defective. The line is not separated. So, it stops feeding and cannot be pulled apart to use. I have written to them but they are so concerned with me providing the serial number of my trimmer to assist. I have told them 3 times the sticker with the s# has fallen off.
They tell me to spray the line with WD40, unwind and rewind the line.
The trimmer uses a lot of line; which is very expensive. The Customer Service is terrible!

Ryobi 2000 pressure washer This is my fourth pressure washer.# 1& 2 was from Wal Mart # 3 from Northern Tool This one was very easy to assemble, but best part is its the only one of the four that when you connect the hoses up I did not have to go back and tighten again. It was very easy to move around, the turbo head does a great job It did a great job cleaning the drive way. I love it and I am glad I bought it in place of something else I can recommend it

Just purchased my Ryobi 18V Buffer/polisher. I used it today to apply wax to my car, it did a great job as long as you follow the instructions if your new to doing this. After waxing I switched to the buffing part of the job, which again this product did a very great job. You don't have to apply pressure to the buffer, just let it do its job as designed. The handles are very easy to grip and do not cause fatigue. The buffing and polishing pads were easy to install and held up very well. The battery lasted through the whole process. I would recommend this product.

Tip for consumers:
very good product
