A string trimmer is a trimmer you can use to maintain your lawn but if you want to keep in the perfect shape then it is a good option to have an edger by your side. An edger will keep the grass away from the pathway in the yard and you will have a clean edge between the grass and the path.
You don’t have to buy a trimmer and an edger separately, you can buy a trimmer edger combo which are 2 tools in 1. There are many weed eater and edger combo models on the market and I want to show you the most interesting ones and the ones that will make your yard look amazing.
I decided to focus only on electric weed wacker edger combo models because they are easier to maintain, easier to control and they don’t need gas to work. All you need is an electric power source and a will to work.
Since there are 2 types of electric weed eater edger combo models I took them both and below you can find short reviews of the most popular trimmer and edger combo models that will make your yard look like from a magazine.
Best Trimmer And Edger Combo Models
Greenworks 13-Inch 40V Cordless String Trimmer/Edger
The first model I want to show you is a cordless string trimmer/edger combo which means it is a battery powered tool. This trimmer/edger is a very user-friendly model because it comes with the battery you can use on other Greenworks tools, but you have to check which series is compatible with this one. Make sure that you have read the description of the product because this trimmer can come with and without battery and the charger. But, besides that, it is a pretty neat tool. You can transform the trimmer into an edger in seconds and the only thing you need to do is rotate the head of the trimmer. The 40V battery can last about 30 minutes so you can trim your yard, but it would be better if the battery lasts longer than that. That also depends on the state of the yard so this is an estimation.
Pros:
It is battery powered so you can use it everywhere.
The transformation lasts a few seconds and it is simple to make.
Cons:
Make sure that you read the description because it can come with and without the battery.
