Something Changed Since I Last Purchased - Best Gas Lawn Edger Review






by Ashley Martin


Edging was a breeze and was done in half the time as the weed eater. Seems to have more power and the design of the blade chews right through the edges. Well the air may have been cleaner around my house but the lawn certainly wasn't. I purchased my Black & Decker heavy-duty Edge Hog landscape edger on August 27 and received it on August 31.

This unit is that powerful. Aside from the features mentioned above, the price/performance of the Edge Hog makes it an excellent value. It wasn't very loud either. I will have to purchase a longer extension cord since I had to use two of them to reach all the areas we needed to edge.

I love this trimmer, it's easy to handle and it does a great job. I purchased the LE750 to replace a B&D Edger that had finally (after decades) died.

It has an extremely powerful motor and it guides perfectly. The blade is great and it gets the job done quickly easily and safely.

I had expected the edger to cut the grass cleanly. If you don't want to deal with gas-powered edger, this is THE ONE.

I believe the blade was cold-rolled instead of hot-rolled, which will make the blade more durable. This Edger replaced a seventeen year old Black & Decker Edger. The edger makes a much better trench next to my driveway, much more easily. Since my old driveway is level, or even a bit below, the lawn, water tends to pool on it after a rain. I would buy it again if and when this one wears out. This is a good edger if your yard isn't huge. They were out of stock and I had to back order. Few weeks later I had two new tiny bits of plastic attached to a thin strip of metal.

It worked better than expected and I am very happy. For the money it's a great buy despite getting some strange looks from my women friends, I requested this for my birthday.

Myself, I used a $5 sweeper nozzle, which was highly effective. The whole yard has a much better look. It will fill with mud but is easy to clean out. Real easy to assemble but the grass was over the driveway about three inches in places.
