In the U.S. I ordered a Power Planter auger set, 3" and 5" diameter. It arrived in a couple of days. They come in 2" through 9" diameters depending on whether you're planting pansies or fence posts. You furnish the drill motor though they offer a couple of DeWalt units that should do the trick. I already have some serious drills and just purchased the augers.
I got one of those and it works pretty good if you have well turned soil in an established bed. Hit some rocks or roots and the wrists will hurt for a couple of days.
I have a suspicion that the cyclone hand augers are a lot faster because they have a tamper in the middle that allows for clay removal. I have recently been using a petrol powered one, and it suffers from two problems (1) leaves all the dirt in the ground (2) spurts fumes in your face (3) mashes your arms up.
Hi, Thanks for watching. I have found the Ryobi gets the dirt out of the ground really well and obviously no fumes. You have to be careful though as it can spin while holding it so you need to be careful.
@@countrylifeonthecoast4167 Thanks. I ordered a Ryobi auger from bunnings, and also got a hedge trimmer, because my bush block has turned into a hedge, after the fires and drought regrowth.
I live in the US and this tool isn't available here, so I found one on AUS Ebay that was willing to ship to the US. I hope to have it in a few short weeks.
Baa Haaa 11:15 in I notice you dug the rock out with a crow bar lol. The petrol ones dig the rocks out ok, 2 man job though. Ryobi has a new 36v auger might be better, for rocks. :)
In the instructions video, they say you should let it get up to speed before jamming it into the ground, and keep it spinning when you pull it out every 10 seconds to spin the dirt away. th-cam.com/video/ahq7BIt8UAk/w-d-xo.html
You are right and I have found that this sometimes works depending on the soil type. I have put out another video on this tool after now using it to dig more than 100 holes. If you want to view it it can be found here th-cam.com/video/yz29L38_ksA/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching.
Hi. It will really depend on what your ground is like. In heavy clay (our place) and with only a 2.5Ah battery (I know I need to use at least a 5Ah) I can only get 4 or so holes at 600 or 700mm depth. Ryobi say you can get 40 holes at 400mm depth with a 5Ah battery. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
I got one, serious don't buy it, because if you hit the rock or root it stopped, if soil is hard it stop, so in the end I needs use hand tool digger finish the job, after that I exchange to petrol Roybi Post digger
I've been using mine a lot recently and plan to do an updated video in the coming weeks. I agree that it can keep stopping at times, and I tried to show that while digging the first hole in this video.
Hi. From my experience, I think it would be a struggle. I have found that it struggles to get through tree roots anything bigger than you thumb. So trying to uproot trees is probably outside it capabilities.
@@countrylifeonthecoast4167 You can get it in Australia and start shipping to people like me. similar to I got from Aussie Gardener - Power Planter Australia.
TIM from Canada I see you have the auger you would never get this in Canada..... in the store you would have to go to the website which is in USA order it and they send it to the store... another scam
It doesn't like any sort of rocks or gravel. I did an updated review after using it to dig more than 100 holes and talked about this issue. Feel free to have a look on the Country Life on the Coast TH-cam channel. Cheers
Hi, thanks for watching. I actually found it worked great. If you want to check out the second review I did after digging more than 100 holes with it, you can see it here th-cam.com/video/yz29L38_ksA/w-d-xo.html
TIM from Canada I can tell you right now this Ryobi auger will never come to Canada you will never buy this at the Home Depot in Canada let me tell you why.... 85% of Ryobi tools that are promoted in the USA or in the UK will never come to Canada this is the way it is set up... I can see why this ryobi auger is shit cannot even dig a straight hole without barking up.. I have been telling people for years the Ryobi brand has no power it is not worth the money they are charging for these tools... I can tell you right now Ryobi brand in Canada is three times the price that it is in USA or UK... you would never get a Ryobi commercial like this coming out of Canada.. if I can tell you one thing and one thing only save your money put your money in (Milwaukee power tools )this brand is far superior over everyone else this is the brand that is going to make it you have the M 18 brand and then you have the M 12 brand both out of Milwaukee but the only downside is you need to different brands of batteries to run these tools.... The only downside I see from the major brands of tools Milwaukee Dewalt Makita these brands have different types of tools which you need different types of batteries... do you not know why you cannot stick with the same type of battery that runs all your brands for example Dewalt has two different kinds of batteries for different kinds of tools this is a downside. Keep your money do you not invest in Ryobi tools
Yes but that's in the US/Canada. I think Milwaukee is only about 50% more than Ryobi at Home Depot? The price difference between Milwaukee and Ryobi elsewhere in the world is much more. Same parent company. The price discrimination is a rort.
Maybe you get a different line of tools in Canada. I have about 12 different Ryobi and a half a dozen batteries. Haven't had one fail and they've been perfectly up to any job I've done with them. Granted, I use them for DIY and I'm not too demanding but I know their limits and that's well within my needs. Not going to argue that the professional Milwaukee, DeWalt, Makita, etc are great tools but I don't make money with my tools and they're completely overkill for what I do. Hope you find something that works well for you too
TIM from Canada as I can see with most RYOBI TOOLS And batteries they do not have The power to do the jobs they are billed for the RYOBI brands and shit They are good for one thing leave them in the store I know I have the Ryobi brand and I am not impressed with what I have this brand is a waste of money
Nah ryobi definitely fills the need in the market. You have to have the right tool for the job. Would I use ryobi on my jobsites with other guys no. Would I highly recommend ryobi to my friends not in the trades yes absolutely.
Tim from Canada I have found that the Ryobi brand is nothing but garbage I have the leaf blower and the weedeater they are not worth the money I paid for them the only reason I got them is because when I bought the weedeater it come with the battery and this is what I was looking for... then I was looking for another battery for the same weedeater in Canada stuff is so expensive... for the amount of money they wanted for a 4 Ah. Battery $50 more I got four tools and two batteries for the same price it would’ve cost me to buy one battery and $150 Canadian.... for tools two batteries and big charger $199 Canadian.. this price is going up $100 it is now almost $300 to buy the same kit in Canada... it will vary if there is deals but usually about $300... this is why I have a real stink for the Ryobi brand of tools.. if it was my way I would’ve stayed away from this crappy brand of tool along time ago.
TIM from Canada. By the looks of it stay away from Ryobi tools The Ryobi auger. It’s not worth the money to invest in this. If the Ryobi company is going to make a tool that to make a post hole digger invest in the time to make something worthwhile than right... The Ryobi company has crappy tools. Stay away.. I know I have invested in Ryobi worst thing I have ever done. I have wasted so much money on these tools.. these are crap this is just my opinion from someone who has Ryobi I will not be getting this tool not worth the money

@@countrylifeonthecoast4167 Thanks. I ordered a Ryobi auger from bunnings, and also got a hedge trimmer, because my bush block has turned into a hedge, after the fires and drought regrowth.
You just have to pull it up and down to clear the dirt. Also.. get it spinning before you put it in the ground!
I believe u would get better performance if u used a higher amp battery.
I agree. Certainly would be able to get more holes dug too. Thanks for watching.
Yes get a bigger battery mate
I live in the US and this tool isn't available here, so I found one on AUS Ebay that was willing to ship to the US. I hope to have it in a few short weeks.
I hope you enjoy it when you get it.
@john, what'd this end up running you to get it state side? How'd it turn out? Can you link me to the ebay seller?

@@countrylifeonthecoast4167 does it work better with mud?
I have some Ryobi tools both 18 volts and 36 volts that are not much better than rubbish but to have an 18-volt auger, not on your nelly.
You are a liar, Ryobi doesn't make a 36v tool.
Hi, how many holes(proximity half of blade) it does per charge? Thank you

Glad to hear it. Thanks for watching
Just got one , when I installed auger it wobbles. is that normal ?
Hi. Yes mine wobbles a bit as well. There is a little bit of play where it slides into the auger. Hope it works well for you!
You need a 6ah or 9ah battery for more power.
Can I use it to uproot trees ib my farm?
Hi. From my experience, I think it would be a struggle. I have found that it struggles to get through tree roots anything bigger than you thumb. So trying to uproot trees is probably outside it capabilities.
Well how I geting
Nice tool where i get.and how much cost
In Australia you can buy it at Bunnings for $269.
What is the tourqe on these?
I would love to get my hands on it but seems to not find this in UK any advice? ebay too expensive
Sorry not sure where you could get it from. When I made the video I didn't realize it wasn't available everywhere.
Thanks for watching though.
@@countrylifeonthecoast4167 You can get it in Australia and start shipping to people like me. similar to I got from Aussie Gardener - Power Planter Australia.
your ment to use a 5 amp battery not a 2.5 amp.
You need a 6ah battery....
I agree, that would make a big difference.
you've improperly used an ellipsis in your punctuation
TIM from Canada I see you have the auger you would never get this in Canada..... in the store you would have to go to the website which is in USA order it and they send it to the store... another scam
Where it is available and what is the price
Here in Australia it is available at Bunnings. I just looked it up and it is still $269.
Cheers
Well let me know if you want to sell it
This guy has never seen an auger in use before!!
Haha. I do love digging holes now though.
someone might want kickback.
Did you ever look to see if there a big rock or going into a bolder
Not impressed by that.
It doesn't like any sort of rocks or gravel. I did an updated review after using it to dig more than 100 holes and talked about this issue. Feel free to have a look on the Country Life on the Coast TH-cam channel.

So far I've been happy with Ryobi for home use. I'm not sure how it would go being used every day, but for me it so far has been good.
That's a good comment. I agree and as a home use Ryobi user I, so far, have found them to be good.
Don't buy the brushless drills. They have numerous design flaws, and lag 100ms. That was a big disappointment. At least I got a 5AH battery.
