Grip Trimmer Handle, String Trimmer Handle, Ergonomic Trimmer Grip, Lawn Trimmer Handle, Weed Eater Handle Extension Back Saver

This is a game changer if you have a lot of trimming to do, also if you are tall, pair this with the good vibrations zero gravity strap and you’ll never shy away from trimming because of sore back or arms!

I have a couple fixed handles that I have tried recently and I found that the extra adjustment on this one made it much more comfortable to use. Assembly was straightforward. The biggest concern is they use a lot of plastic in the mount and elbow. We will have to see how it will hold up.

Overall this trimmer handle works very well. I have a straight shaft trimmer, and I am not a tall person. After extend run time I usually can start to feel the pull in my lower back. After several hours of use I can attest to this being a true back saver. I am able to use my trimmer without bending over at all.Installation was very quick and easy and this handle can be mounted to work on either side. I like that although the handle bracket is mounted in a fixed location, the handle itself pivots to whatever angle is needed while in use. There is also a joint that can be adjusted which allows you to locate the grip closer or farther away. I also like the fact that I can still use the original handle if needed with this new one in place. The only reason I knocked a star off is some of the mounting hardware is made of plastic and longevity is a concern.

The handle took about 10 minutes to install. There is a mount with four hex head screws that attach it to the trimmer shaft and then the handle attaches at the top of the mount. It has adjustability left to right and however far up or down you want on the trimmer. The height and / or angle can be set by loosening the hand knob and moving it one or more notches at a time. I had to really torque down the screws to keep it from moving; so tight that the white paint was stripped off the handle at the mount connection. It's not a huge deal because that part won't be visible, but seems like it should be using some knurling or grooves to help clamp it down. I also noticed there is no angle adjustment for the handle grip. In other words, it's always parallel with the mount which is often undesirable if you really want to get it adjusted to that "sweet spot" where the handle is parallel to your body. Despite those few issues, it's way better than the original loop handle that came from the factory on my electric line trimmer. I've always struggled with it to the point that I was no longer using my trimmer due to fatigue issues with my arm. With this handle, I don't have that issue and can use it for much longer periods of time with out my upper arm / shoulder giving out.

I recently had surgery, but needed to weed my yard and knew my shoulder wouldn't take it.Then I stumbled across this lifesaver!It is so simple, anyways, out of the box everything is just right there.The handle and the mounting instructions.I will say it's pretty simple to mount, but it does take some time to adjust and micro adjust to get it right where you want it.It seems like you have to clamp down pretty hard to get it locked in place where you want it.I wish both adjustment points were the bike type clamps. It would make minor adjustments easier I believe.But overall, it makes the job much less painful.The ability to adjust the handle to relieve painful pressure is great.Overall it's much easier to use my trimmer with this handle attached, it was much less stress on my repaired shoulder.And I didn't have pain for multiple days afterwards, a much improved handle.

Very happy with this product. Using it with my Toro 60V flex force power system (weed trimmer, edge, pole cutter, hedge trimmer). It’s easy to attach. The handle is very comfortable to hold. You can position the handle in many orientations, enabling you to set up in a position that is best for you. It is very nice to stand straight when trimming - your back will thank you!

My son said the ergonomic design and sturdiness of the handle made weed eating this weekend way easier. The angles are just right to relieve pressure off the back and shoulders. Highly recommend.

I didn't even know these things existed until I came across this one on Amazon. I recently switched to an electric weed trimmer, and love how light and quiet it is, but the handle leaves a lot to be desired. It's not very rigid (maybe that's by design to absorb some vibration) and always makes me feel like it's about to come loose or come off. Plus, it's just not comfortable, especially for a tall guy like me. I put this on today, and was very pleasantly surprised how much easier it is to manage the tool! Plus it's quite adjustable. I'm not sure if it's supposed to move on the attachment to the trimmer itself, but I found that I can get it just tight enough to hold in place, but loose enough to pull it up or down for changing my angle of approach, or for working on slopes. It works beautifully that way whether it was intended or not. Also, my trimmer is one that folds up by removing a screw on the center of the shaft where it is split into two parts. It's actually very handy for storage, and I was worried this new handle would interfere with that but it doesn't in any way. I have the handle mount below the split, and it folds up nicely and I can fold the other half of the handle in and the whole thing takes up pretty much the same space.
