Greatest Out There – Rolling Lawn Edger Critique

I purchased this edger back in early spring, but due to a broken wrist, and injured shoulder, I did not use this machine until last Saturday. The machine is very easy to operate, heavy enough to hold it on track, but not so heavy I couldn’t handle it. What a pleasure it was! There was virtually no setup required and within minutes I was walking along cutting a perfect groove along my sidewalk, driveway, and even the curb. The only problem I did encounter was when I got into the thicker growth (2-3″) and the Edge Hog would clog. But it was really my fault.

It Is Incredible – Manual Lawn Edger Review

I am still using the original blade, so nothing has been a serious problem. Compared with the manual edgers which you have to push hard and fast, this small electric model is a dream. I’ve had to return one item bought through Amazon for replacement, and that was an easy and excellent experience. I have used this product only once and it is far superior to the Ryobi that I had before it. When trimming denser grass, the guard tends to catch on the grass. I had to fight with the trimmer a few times to push it along my taller edges. On short edges, the Edge Hog just breezes right through. Even with the overgrowth, the Hog managed to cut through and leave a nice edge.

Now I Know What’s Wrong – Husqvarna Lawn Edger Critique

No papers, warranty, or directions in the box. Edger performed well, but do not believe it is “NEW.” You may only need this edger once or twice a year, but it takes the drudgery out of what used to be a dreaded chore. Last year, I needed this! The product is very light weight and easy to manage. Blade cuts well and is easy to maneuver.
