![]() Once I bought a second FS90R, I just kept the trimmer attachment on it all the time rather than swapping out the heads. The only two attachments I ever bought were the edger (which I used about 3 times) and the hedge trimmer. It's a Stihl FS90R string trimmer - they took different gearhead attachments - not a split shaft. I can adjust the angle rather than contorting my body. The articulating head unit I bought is easily the best money I ever spent in terms of making my life easier. ![]() If I were going to buy ONE extended reach trimmer, I would not waste money on one that has a fixed head. I actually got so used to using it on almost EVERYTHING that when I did get a handheld trimmer I found the small trimmer awkward to use. I ran an "extended reach", articulating head trimmer for many years before buying a handheld. Might I get anĪttachment capable powerhead and run a commercial hedge attachment?Ĭan I approach this looking for an all around type unit or is there enough reason to get a hand style like my Ryobi pictured and a pole type? The pole type would allow me to begin creeping into running a commercial style powerhead but I need to stay focused on the main theme here and that's taking a step further into this trade and rocking out bushes with efficiency. What about something like this? I've seen crews trimming big and small stuff with these types of setups. What really confuses me is what would be a good all around capable hedge trimmer? Something like this that is a traditional hedge trimmer in my mind. I will admit that I would like to go in that direction, we're all only human and I can't remove all my bias and personal wants but please anyone suggest anything that you like. Now, has instilled confidence in me that the Husqvarna battery platform is one to run with. I would prefer electric obviously but it's less important with something that will tackle overgrown stuff. Gas, electric, hand crank, hamster wheel, I'm not trying to walk into this like I do with my trusty Ryobi 40v powerhead. I don't know why I didn't come to Jesus about this earlier but I'm here now. The worst part is I intentionally avoid accounts that have more than a little bit of bush maintenance. ![]() They're only meant for maintained booxwoods and other light work. This has been recently realized by me that I'm burning up valuable time putzing around with my Ryobi 40v hedge trimmers.
