Lawn brahs help me pick an edger

My Worx electric edger just broke and I only had it for 3 years. I liked it was a separate machine and it did a great job but disappointed it didn’t last longer.

I have a husquvanna weed trimmer so I’m thinking about getting a edger attachment for it. Any experiences?

Or should I get another Worx or another brand?

I suck at edging with just my weed trimmer so I need something. I just do my own lawn.

Pay someone to do it.

I pay $60 a month for all my trimming and weed whacking. I have 1.6 acres. Money well spent.

I’m too cheap to pay someone to do something I can easily do.

As a former professional landscaper. I always just used the string trimmer.

Get used to doing it and you'll get faster.

But if you have to get an edger go get a gas operated commercial grade stick edger.

I assume your string trimmer isn't some short electric homeowner piece of schit right?

Don't go to the phucking hardware store. Go to the pro shop.

There is a commercial equipment dealer in every town.
