Upgraded Ergonomic Trimmer Grip, String Trimmer Handle, with Trimmer Shoulder Harness, Weed Eater Handle Extension for Trimming, Weedeater Handle Grip for String Trimmer, Lawn Care and Landscaping

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I like the look and feel of this handle. With having larger hands, it feel comfortable with this grip. Ease of use:Easy to install and easy to adjust. I will order more of there for the different attachments I have for my Milwaukee quick loc setup.

I have always experienced lower-right back discomfort when using string trimmers and edgers for extended periods due to having to adopt an irregular posture for protracted amounts of time. This Trimmer Grip alleviated it! For context, I'm 6'2" and use a Stihl Kombi with string trimmer and straight-shaft edger with the unit on my right side. I have about five hours combined use between the two attachments while using the grip. Materials and construction are very robust. Installation is simple.A few tips that worked for me:First, although the clamp grips the handle precisely and tightly, it is a bit slippery, causing the handle to rotate when picking up the tool by the grip no matter how tightly the screws are torqued. To solve this, I taped a single 1" wide strip of Gorilla tape lengthwise along the portion of the handle that the clamp grips on to. (Wrapping the whole thing prevented it from being inserted into the clamp due to an excessive increase of the diameter). This gives it much, much more friction and bite, keeping the grip from rotating for the most part -- I can still adjust the height of the grip on the fly if need be with substantial force, but for all intents and purposes, it makes for a solid, stationary connection. (There have been no slipping issues at the shaft attachment point, so no modification has been necessary at that connection.)Second, finding the comfort sweet spot took some experimentation. When using the grip on the string trimmer for the first time, the grip merely transferred previously experienced back pain into my left forearm because my elbow was consistently bent. I got it dialed in by tweaking the height of the grip over the shaft in combination with how far down the shaft it was mounted, all the while making sure I was standing up straight, no bent elbows, and the trimmer head was at the height I'd be using it. The hand grip ended up being centered over the shaft and parallel to the factory handle albeit not directly over it, but farther down, closer to the business end of the trimmer.For dialing in the edger, I adjusted the positioning as above, but I also rotated the handle 20 degrees or so to the left so that when I'm standing in a natural, upright posture while holding the grip, the edger blade is not perfectly vertical, but rather angled out to the right, away from whatever I'm edging. This is how I've always preferred to edge because it creates an aesthetically pleasing gap between the concrete/paver and the turf instead of making a plain flush cut. I'm happy that the Trimmer Grip could be adjusted for this while maintaining a comfortable posture.One final note: I find that when edging an area that doesn't need the manicured look of a blade edger, using the string trimmer instead, utilizing the Trimmer Grip is cumbersome. I'll default back to the factory handle. It might be a matter of just getting used to it, but for now I just use the factory handle for edging that way.All in all, I find this grip to be a good design and well-made of quality materials. I feel its beneficial attributes correlate to the user's height -- the taller one is, the more apparent and appreciated those attributes will be. At over six feet tall, I find it indispensable. I will purchase again should I acquire other attachments or otherwise need additional ones.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I can’t speak as to the durability given I’ve only used it once but worth its weight in gold in terms of ease of use and your back will definitely thank you! And ps if your wondering if it’ll work with the echo pas system it will!

I use this on my Echo SRM225 straight shaft trimmer.Assembles quickly and after a day of work my back doesn’t hurt as much. I believe there will be a period of time where one has to “de-program” oneself from the now un-needed bending. I caught myself several times and had to remind myself that I “don’t need to do that anymore!”.The only issue I’ve had is that after a while the paint rubs off where the clamps tighten down and the arm eventually fell out. Even after tightening it back up. If it continues to fall out I may drill a hole through the end a put a pin or bolt in there so it can’t fall out. The strap and gloves that came with were a nice “bonus”. The clip on the strap is pretty light duty though. It’s already bent enough where the trimmer falls off the clip.Not a deal breaker by any means. I’m happy with my purchase and would recommend this to others.

Happy with customer service from this product.. happy with the product too wish the brackets that holds the handle to the trimmer was a stronger material.. it breaks too easy when others dont know how to use it.. sadly im not the only one using the trimmer so yea my product lasted a week and got replaced so im thankful for that. But got broken by someone else again within a week on the same part. Again this item is worth the money just wish it was stronger on the part that tightens and holds the two parts together

This sat in my cart for a while while I contemplated if it was worth it or not. Do yourself a favor and just buy it! I'm 6'2" tall and my back doesn't hurt after trimming! What more do you need to know?!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Easy to install and feels well built and sturdy. Definitely a back save for a taller guy like myself while weed eating my property. Would recommend.

Works pretty good, just having trouble getting it tight so it doest move . Afraid of breaking if I tighten to much
