Simple and easy to use
Would RecommendIt is simple and easy to use. Having three wheels helps those who struggle using an edger that is like a weed eater.

Weak Edger
Would Not RecommendMaybe sufficient for urban dwellers with smooth limited edging but if you need something more then keep shopping.
Difficult to start
Would Not RecommendI used this brand new edger one time but have not been able to start again. I would not recommend.

It broke after one use
Would Not RecommendSo I used my edger one time last season. I purchased it a little later in the mowing season. I got it out this spring to use it and it will not start. Lowes said that because I am past six months I have to go through the manufacturer. Still trying to find a receipt because they require one. Do not waste your money on this garbage.

Don’t purchase
Won’t cut through anything at all . It is a chore . The other reviews tell the same story . It doesn’t have enough power at all . I don’t have overgrown grass or edges that need help first . My grass is pretty perfect and my soil isn’t hard .

A little edger that really works!
Would RecommendI like that this edger starts easily, which the other brand I replaced with this one would not crank. Though small, this edger does a fine job of edging the lawn.
