Customer Reviews

Requires some muscle, but works well...
After reading the reviews on other sites regarding this edger, I thought I'd give it a try and add it to my collection of environment friendly yard tools (reel mower, etc.). The reviews aren't kidding when they say it takes a lot of work to get your lawn looking good. It's really tough cleaning up the edges in the spring, after all the winter overgrowth, but once that's done, it's cake when used for upkeep. I like this edger, and am glad I bought it. It provides a much nicer looking edge than with a weed eater, it's just a matter of suffering once a year in the spring. Also, it definitely has the quality that all the other Ames tools have and should last me a long time to come. Manufacturing quality and the results this edger produces would give it 5 stars; however, the once a year muscle ache takes half a star away...so actually 4-1/2 stars, but that's not an option.

Muscle Needed
If you are not very strong, I would opt for a different edger. I cannot use the product. I am going to try a step edger. My fried has had some success with this edger, but it seems that the amount of strength it takes to actually edge will soon break the tool.

Basic but effective
Going green will require some muscle here, but that's the idea....a decent, basic version of a lawn edger...
