Yard maintenance is a task for every family member and that is why I want to share with you my list of best weed wacker for a woman. That way you can teach your daughter how to maintain the yard so she can do it with her own yard in the future.
There isn’t the particular special type of weed eater for women, but I would recommend them to use smaller and lighter trimmers or other tools because they will be more comfortable with them. You don’t have to use a big and bulky trimmer if you can’t carry it, no matter if you are a man or a woman.
Treat yourself and use a light trimmer which are far better options for women. You don’t have to experience bad back everytime you trim the grass in your yard and you know it. That is why I want to share with you a list of best weed eaters for women and you can see if one of them will suit your needs and desires.
One thing I want to share with you before I continue with the list. I would recommend using electric weed wackers because they are lighter than gas trimmers in general and they are easier to use. You don’t have to use fuel with them so it is not a messy task like with the gas trimmers.
That is why my list consists of mostly electric weed trimmers and you will see that they are much better for beginners – because they are easy to use, and women – because they are lighter.
Best Weed Wacker for a Woman
Greenworks 13-Inch 4 Amp Corded String Trimmer 21212
The first contestant for the best weed wacker for a woman is a corded electric trimmer made by Greenworks. This light trimmer is very simple to use and it looks pretty good. It is made in a silver and green color combination with a few black details so you can be sure that your better half will like the design. It is not the strongest trimmer on the market, but with the 4 Amp motor will cut basic weed in your yard. This light trimmer weighs only 5.2 lbs so you can be sure that it won’t be too heavy for some light yard maintenance. The only problem with this trimmer is the fact that it is corded, which means you have to use it for small to medium yards. You can go as far as the cord allows you to go, so if you have a big yard, you should check the battery powered weed eater for women which are below.
Pros:
It is simple to use and it is light – weighs only 5.2 lbs.
It comes with the telescopic shaft so you can adjust the height of the trimmer.
Cons:
It is corded trimmer so you can use it only for small to medium yards.
Dewalt 20V Max 5.0 Ah Lithium-Ion XR Brushless String Trimmer DCST920P1
Although Dewalt trimmers are made in the black and yellow color combination and they might not impress your better half with the design, they are very simple to use and their working preferences are great. This battery powered trimmer is a great option for a weed trimmer for women because it is light and it cuts weed without any trouble. You don’t have to be an expert to start this trimmer and that is one of the biggest advantages of electrical trimmers over gas trimmers – easy to start. This trimmer is heavier than the model above, but it is still pretty light with 8.3 lbs so I think that women can work with it without any trouble for some time. There is a trigger that controls the speed which is great because you can start with the lowest speed and gradually make it faster as you get used to the trimmer.
Pros:
It is simple to use and easy to start as others electric trimmers.
You can adjust the speed of the trimmer.
Cons:
Warranty on the trimmer is limited, so check what it covers.
BLACK+DECKER 12-Inch Lithium Trimmer and Edger LST300
This light battery operated trimmer is great because it comes with two options. It is a trimmer, but you can also use it as an edger too and the transformation is very quick and simple. This trimmer/edger weighs about 7 lbs so it is considered a lightweight tool and it is very simple to use for beginners, experts, men, woman, for everyone. This is a great weed eater for women because it comes with an adjustable handle and telescopic shaft which means that you can adjust it completely to your needs and skills. The 20-Lithium Ion battery should last enough for you to trim your yard but depends on the actual size of the yard.
Pros:
It is simple to use and easy to start as others electric trimmers.
You can adjust the height of the trimmer and position of the handle.
Cons:
Warranty on the trimmer is limited, so check what it covers.
Worx 20-Volt GT 2.0 String Trimmer/Edger/Mini-Mower WG160
This trimmer is actually a pretty interesting tool and that is why it is one of the best weed wacker for a woman. It is a trimmer, an edger, and a mini-mower which means that you can basically maintain your entire yard with it. You don’t have to use tools to convert this trimmer into edger or mower, all you have to do is switch and press. Now, you would expect that this trimmer is heavier than others since it is a 3-in-1 option, but it is actually very light. It weighs only 5.7 pounds which means it is easy to use. Men can use it too of course and that is why it comes with a telescopic shaft. Whoever uses it can adjust the height of the trimmer to their height. The best part about this battery-powered trimmer is that you can use the battery on other Worx tools, just make sure they are compatible.
Pros:
It is a trimmer, an edger, and a mini-mower all in one.
You can adjust the height of the trimmer and position of the handle.
Cons:
Warranty on the trimmer is limited, so check what it covers.
Toro Cordless 8-Inch 12-Volt Electric Trimmer 51467
This electric trimmer looks like a corded trimmer but it is actually a battery powered trimmer. This trimmer is very simple and it looks great due to the red and black color combination. The trimmer is not the best weed wacker for a woman, but it is pretty good. In my opinion, its biggest disadvantage is the fact that you can’t adjust the height of the trimmer, which is not that bad when you think about it. The handle you use to control the trimmer is ergonomic which means that you can use it without any trouble and that is what matters most.
Pros:
It is light, it weighs only 6.4 pounds.
The ergonomic handle makes it easy to control.
Cons:
It doesn’t come with a telescopic shaft.
