Yes, I just saw that.
Price error? Link doesn’t work, when searching for it it comes up $199 https://www.bunnings.com.au/ryobi-one-18v-40cm-2-0ah-cordles…
Link isnt working. This stuff has happened with Bunnings sometimes. I posted another link above that seems to get there. Thanks to bio's comment below.
***Update, link is now working****
B0rken - none in search are coming up as $99
[Bunnings Search] (https://www.bunnings.com.au/search/products?page=1&q=Ryobi+1…)search for 'Cordless Pommel Handle Hedge Trimmer Kit'
Oh I think you mean the ‘pommel handed’ one
Yes thats the one.
Cheers, thanks, that works. I just changed my original post to include your link.
In fact, searching with the P/N worked even better for me:
I just checked and original link is now working.
Again, thanks for your input.
Thanks OP, just ordered one, reviews seem great.
I have one and it works really well. I have a lot of photinia and some diosmas, and it does the job nicely. Another bonus is it is very light, which my aging body appeciates!
Thank you, really appreciate the feedback! Do you find the battery lasts around 30 minutes, as advertised?
It probably should. I generall only do a green bin at a time butI did a green bin full a few days back and the 2.0ah battery I used was still on 4 bars.
@revheadgl: Perfect, this should suit me well otherwise I'll wait for the batteries to go on sale haha!
@mouzii: I have had a Makita and an Ozito prior to this and I have found hedge trimmers to be pretty easy on batteries. 30 mins should see a fair bit done.
I have photinia at home, but its quite matured now. Do you think, it should be able to cut those branches?
Mine is quite old too. Its about 2.5-3m high so some of it is quite thick. This trimmer has a rated cut capacity of 14mm so I wont cut through the thicker stuff. Its more for basic maintenance etc.
I have a cordless recipro and some 18v secateurs that I use for the bigger stuff.
Oi! Be careful! You should only really be using this item on vegetation, not on your aging body. Surely that unexpected back hair is manageable.
Upvote for that. Gave me a chuckle.
Can you cut branches on trees as well or do I need a pole saw?
No good for branches. This has a rated cut capacity of 14mm. Chainsaw, polesaw or reciprocating saw for bigger stuff. Or a handsaw I guess.
Okie, now I need to buy some hedging plants.
and wait 3+ years for them to be overgrown
joke aside. thanks for confirming that i dont need it (for now). just planted some boxus like one month ago (20cm ish)
What's the regular price?
I think its full price was $149 or $159
The skin only is $119, https://www.bunnings.com.au/ryobi-one-18v-cordless-40cm-pomm…
The batteries that came with the recent drill deal, can they be used on other Ryobi tools like whipper snipper and such? And don't all the tools come with batteries anyway. I'm kind of new to hoarding tools that require batteries. And electric tools in general.
Yes thats correct. All the Ryobi 18v tools and batteries are interchangeable.
Tools can come as whats termed skin only, meaning tool only, or in a kit which will includes charger battery etc or multiple batteries depending on the kit.
Just go to Ryobi Aus website or bunningss and you can check out whats available.

Any grass trimmer or edger on sale ?
Been waiting for ages, but haven't seen a price drop in months.
Was looking for one for the last few months, brought this last year, useless with buffalo, slightly better with kikuyu.
https://www.bunnings.com.au/ryobi-one-18v-25-30cm-cordless-l…Was waiting on a deal on ryobi, ozito or dewalt for up to $350, ended up buying the 5 in 1 tool from aldi last week for $199. Surprisingly good , Much better than the ryobi, plus comes with edger, hedge trimmer and brush cutter , highly recommended , some still have stock.
Thanks for the heads up!
Yeah heard the regular 18v Ryobi isn't strong enough for Buffalo.
So been waiting for a deal on the 36v, or the 18v Brushless version.
The Aldi one is petrol right? Should be more powerful than the battery ones.
I went for the battery one
https://www.aldi.com.au/en/special-buys/special-buys-sat-21-…Petrol ones are still plentiful in stock at my local aldi, but right now, fiddling with petrol one is something id rather avoid, plus the reviews indicate that they are quite heavy.
Line trimmer is pretty good, uses 2 mm cord, vs the 1.5mm in ryobi .Thumbs up for my 130sqm of Buffalo and Kikuyu.
Tried the edger was great , heaps of power .
The hedge trimmer , was meh, its not a pole hedger, not a normal hedger,midway between these two and not very easy to use, dont think it will see much use.
I have this and it works well and does the job :)
Ahhh! When are mowers going on sale!?!? 😭
Reminder that warranty is 4 years, but gets extended to 6 years if you hand over your data: https://support.ryobi.com.au/article/my-ryobi-benefits-exten…
Has anyone used both this and the Ozito hedge trimmer? The Ozito model is slightly more expensive, but looks closer to this Ryobi trimmer
For what its worth, I have used this Ozito, which is 60mm shorter than the one you linked to https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-pxc-18v-400mm-cordless-hed…
And I have this Ryobi. They cut about the same in my opinion. The Ryobi feels better ergonomically to me and is about 500 grams lighter.
Thats pretty helpful thanks.
I noticed that Ozito reckon it can go through 12mm branches and Ryobi claim 14mm which may not sound like much difference but actually is with branches
thanks, snagged one with free delivery from OnePass. was looking at these the other day!
hmm no hedge sweeper?
Cant decide whether to get corded or battery!
I went from corded to battery. Definitely battery as it's much easier to use on a tall ladder.
Wow
Thanks, ordered one!
Have had one of these for 2 years, still works well. Not sure if it really works but I spray the blades with WD-40 after each use to prevent sap solidifying, blades still seem pretty sharp.
Trimmer and charger look the same but the battery design has changed since I got it.
Yes a wipe down and spraying the blades every use is good practice and the blades will last longer. Personally I use Inox MX3. It doesnt gum up like std WD40 does, plus its Australian made.
Nice, thanks! I'll give it a try.
Anyone know how well this would be at shaping Rosemary hedges
I used a mate’s Ryobi cordless hedge trimmer, but.. it wasn’t this model. I think it was higher end model, as it had the twist handle. That thing was fine for getting through some woody hedges. Sorry, that doesn’t really help a lot, but at least I think it would be alright for most intents and purposes.
Kind of they want to get rid of their 2.0Ah batteries.
thanks got one always wanted one
Sold out in Darwin and Palmerston Store :(
Thanks. Bought as the Minister of Finance didn't want me to spend the extra $300 odd on the 36V system :(
Picked one up stock in Lidcombe area NSW as of 27/10/23.
Very light and good for light hedges etc around the house in the garden but wouldn't use it if you have big thick branches to get through.
Thanks, got one and already tried on the portugese laurel hedge. Works great, I just use some hand loppers for the occasional bigger stuff.
Plenty at my local store, but how is this a bargain? the Ozito one is same price with 2.5Ah batteries.
I bought the Ozito one.
The Ryoby is 500g lighter and is supposedly rated for 14mm branches, vs 12mm on the Ozito one.
Tempted to return and swap but I figured I’d stay with the same system.Because its previous price was $149.
Thanks for the share OP, but the reason it's $99 is that it is worth that much and not a penny more, and probably still twice the worth.
It's meant to be good for up to 14mm, but kept getting jammed at anything above 1cm.I took it back after one use. Unless you just need it for trimming leaves, would not recommend this.
Any good for mouraya or japanese box hedge?
