EGO Power+MHC1502 Multi Combo Kit: 15 String Trimmer, 8-Inch Edger & Power Head with 5.0Ah Battery & Charger Included

Bought this with the hedge trimmer bundle at a very good price. I ran the hedge trimmer on speed 1(slow) and pole saw on speed 2(fast).Pros:It is pretty powerful and I can assure you the battery runtime will be more than likely outlasting you arms if you have it fully charged.Angle adjustments and reach are phenomenal. Easy to hold steady.My hands don't feel the vibration and it is decently quiet for its power output.Con:It is HEFTY if you're trying to do as much work as the battery pack can run. But at least it has a decent balance.It doesn't come with chains and bar lubrication oil, so you will need to prepare that separately for the pole saw.It is rather long, so it can be a problem working at limited space.FYI: Different machine oil are formulated to do different things, try not to substitute.

After using the EGO Power+ MPS1001 10-inch Pole Saw extensively in my yard, I must say, I'm quite impressed with its performance.Straight out of the box, the assembly was easy and intuitive, which made getting started a breeze. The saw feels robust and well-built, inspiring confidence in its durability and longevity.The real strength of the MPS1001 lies in its power. Despite being battery-operated, it doesn't lack in performance. It effortlessly cuts through branches that my old pole saw struggled with, making it a valuable tool for any yard work or pruning needs.Adjusting the length of the pole is straightforward and the overall balance of the saw is commendable. This makes it easier to handle, especially when reaching for those high branches. The 10-inch bar and chain are also capable of handling thicker branches, providing a clean cut every time.One particular feature I appreciate is the battery life. It's long-lasting, allowing me to get a substantial amount of work done on a single charge. Plus, the fact that it's part of the EGO Power+ system means I can swap batteries with other EGO tools, adding to its convenience.In summary, the EGO Power+ MPS1001 10-inch Pole Saw has proved to be a reliable, powerful, and convenient tool for maintaining my yard. It's certainly made my task of managing overgrown trees much simpler and more efficient.

I like that it is a multi head tool (PH1400) with a large array of attachments. I purchased the multi tool with the hedge trimmer attachment. The trimmer lives up to it’s claim of cutting 1 inch growth, which is why I call it the Beast. If you don’t want it cut, don’t get it close. It is very maneuverable with dual blade rotation. The blade will rotate to a vertical cutting position or a horizontal position. The blade will also tilt on it’s axis allowing you to easily cut the top of a large shrub, or get behind a wall hugging shrub.If it has any drawbacks, it would be the weight and possibly the battery duration. The Hedge trimmer is definitely heavy. This is necessary in order to have long reach, as well as the ability to cut thick growth. This is not a judgement of the weight, just pointing it out. Because of the weight it performs as advertised.The battery life is adequate, and possibly excellent when changing to slow speed. I have an older Ego blower, which uses the same battery. It’s not that old in terms of hours used, and it’s charge duration has weakened significantly. I understand I can purchase batteries with a higher aH rating, but cost is a definite factor. It would be nice to see some type of battery trade in program for customer retention.In summary, I would definitely purchase again, and recommend to anyone. Neighbors have stopped and asked about when I was trimming the top of an ornamental which is 12 feet high. Granted I was on second rung of a small ladder, but that’s impressive.

I have some hedges that are 9-10 feet high & my ladder days are long gone. I had a "Greenworks" dedicated extended pole hedge trimmer that broke in half while trimming some high hedges. After some arguing back & forth, Greenworks sent me a replacement - that also split in half after 5 uses. It's not worth ending up in the ER for stitches, so I disposed of it.Since I already have EGO Leaf Blower, String Trimmer & short Hedge Trimmer, and have been very happy with them, I purchased this extended "Power Head" set. It's rather pricey, but it is very durable & it came with another battery & charger (I now have 4).Assembly took 5 minutes. I immediately snapped in one of my batteries & tested it. It works perfectly & (unlike the Greenworks), there is no flex when cutting thicker hedges. The two switches that must be depressed are located exactly where they should be. The speed is variable & the run time is great. I had already used the battery previously in the leaf blower and small hedge trimmer & it had plenty of run time left. The batteries charge quickly.Today, I used the extended hedge trimmer on tall weeds in my back yard, which is 1/2 acre. I set the angle of the blades parallel to the ground as instructed in the manual. With a sweeping motion, it cuts a nice, wide path.The only negative side of this tool is its weight & lack of balance - especially when using it for overhead trimming. Of course, that may not be an issue with younger people. I'm 68 & I was really worn out after 30 minutes of use. But I'd rather have a heavier tool that won't break than a lighter tool that's dangerous to use.

I was concerned that this product might be too heavy for me to handle but I found it easy to use. I do use a shoulder strap and a Kyeen Tool trimmer grip to help me control and balance the edger. I opted for the 5 AH battery which gives the edger has plenty of power and longevity. The 5 AH battery weighs about 2 lbs more than the 2.5 AH battery but that has not caused noticable weight issues for me. Previously, I had been trying to edge with a string trimmer which was difficult, time consuming, and left me with an aching back. The Ego edger works much better, has greatly reduced the labor needed to get the job done, and eliminated my back issues. I wish that I'd purchased this unit much sooner.

Worked very good

Excellent product line

Works like a dream, great quality easy to use would recommend this product

Purchased this to replace a similar version Ryobi tool and chose EGO as I had purchased the EGO 2 stage snowblower last fall and it came wit 2 7.5 amp batteries that I could use on this tool. The quality is far superior to the Ryobi. Heavier duty and more powerful. The 7.5 battery makes it heavy so I would recommend purchasing this tool with a smaller battery or, as I did, purchase the EGO shoulder strap. I highly recommend EGO products.

This is the perfect thing for cutting branches, very powerful saw, cleanup is easy
