Wheeled String Trimmers

[Pablo]

Bagged the idea.

Bought the wife the lightest strongest trimmer which is the Makita single battery 18V. That thing is like a feather and strong with great battery life

Then I bought a real edger attachment for the 80V Greenworks trimmer. Holy heck should have done this 4 years ago! Great edger

Last I bought these wheels for the 80V trimmer- surprisingly slick. Could sell these to the herniated crowd

For a city yard with no weed or bush /bramble problem these are great.

As you said super light, and almost no vibration.

The 80V beast handles anything. Just a tad heavy!

They sent me a 20% off code so I ordered the tiller attachment!

You can probably put a blade on it if you needed to.

You mean on the Makita? Not really necessary. Defeats the purpose. Wife does the light stuff with the light Makita. Save the powerful Greenworks for property work

I've had the little 18v Ryobi for about 15 years. It is a great trimmer. Light, easy to use, replacement string in little cartridges. Its a little too small for my property now, so I stepped up to a bigger Milwaukee, but the Ryobi still gets the most use. I strap it to the tractor and always have it on hand. For lawn chores its the perfect choice.

For heavy trimming and using other power attachments, I'm also happy with the Milwaukee.
