EGO Power Plus Build Your Own Multi-Head Tool System Kit

This initial review covers the battery, pole assembly, and cultivator attachment. This is a surprisingly powerful tiller combo. I have a large gasoline-powered Craftsman tiller as well, so I don't intend to use the EGo for busting new ground. In my raised beds and existing gardens, it efficiently churns soil and allows me to fold in amendments and small surface litter quickly. I do not use it to chop/consume existing plants, but I suspect it would do so. The tiller works very well when pulled toward you. When pushed, it does not dig in as deeply, so it's a nice way to control the depth of tillage. The powerhead has two speeds, but the slower setting is more than enough for the tiller attachment. The battery probably lasts longer than I would carry this around in a single session. I am 6'3", and I am delighted that the adjustable shaft is long enough to be comfortable in use. With the tiller attached and the standard EGO 5 Ah battery, the tiller's balance is a little nose-heavy, which works well for tilling. That said, all up it is a reasonably heavy unit and is not as nimble as the system is when used with just the string-trimmer attachment. The most fun I have had with it thus far has been prepping seed beds and folding in fertilizer: It was fast, churned up the soil, and allowed me to come back with a rake to tap down the soil, lay in the seeds, and cover. At the higher speeds, it tends to throw small rocks (but nowhere near as far or as fast as the string trimmer attachment). I am not super coordinated with my right hand, but I found it easy to use, easy to adjust speeds, and easy stay safe.

I purchased the weed eater and the hedge trimmer. I haven't used the hedge trimmer yet, but I am sure it will be great like all other EGO products. I've been using Ryobi 40 volt outdoor equipment for over 5 years. They work good, but EGO works great. I started with the EGO 18" chainsaw, then the leaf blower and now this. The product is pricey, but the quality is great. The weed eater head profile is flatter than Ryobi's and therefore you get a closer to the ground cut when moving the head parallel to the ground. Like the other EGO products I have bought, they are all more powerful thus reducing the overall time required to finish a task. If you can afford EGO, then I highly recommend them.

Absolutely love the build it yourself package. Love not getting a bunch of extras I don't need. My absolute favorite brand. Do research regularly to make sure nothing better has come out. I have a large amount of these products. Easy to use. Quick to charge. A bit heavy but its a tool its supposed to be. Great all around

I've been using B&D for the last 10 years, batteries finally failed and I started looking for a replacement. This is a serious upgrade in durability, construction, function, weight, power, and battery life. Truly a direct replacement for gas, without the hassle.

Great product, assembly is a bit difficult from the prospective. You have to push on handle with some force, and you feel like you might break it, but you won't shaft is carbon fiber and hard plastic is more flexible than you would imagine but there is no warning to help you to understand this. Documentation should suggest some things, that it doesn't but overall great product.

Everything works as good as expected and some things more.

I jumped on the EGO bandwagon! I LOVE the chainsaw, the hedge-trimmer, the lawnmower...the battery versatility. BUT - this multi-head system is not great. It is not designed for best use for all attachments. If you use the best/most powerful (heavy - like 5lbs - battery) it is very cumbersome & not well balanced. * Culivator is heavy already + the battery - ugh! but it does a decent job on light duty tear up of turf - not awesome, but - just ok • String Trimmer: major suckage...hard to load, keeps jamming, bad line cutter, HORRIBLE ergonomics! My wrist & shoulder are still yelling at me! My advice: EGO is a good brand - BUT avoid the "savings" of the multi-head - at least until they get a better design for all of these to work.

Great product had an issue with charger had to send back to seller took over a month to get the replacement. SELLER WAS VERY UNTRUSTING OF ME, SAID WE HAD TO SEND OLD ONE BACK EVEN THO IT DID NOT WORK WHEN WE RECEIVED IT AND SPENT OVER 1400.00 DOLLARS BUYING AN ENTIRE SET UP FROM THEM. NOT HAPPY WITH SELLER BUT PRODUCT IS AWESOME
