When it comes to the ongoing, repetitive task of lawn care around your home, there are three key considerations: efficiency, ease and cost-effectiveness. Because when the moment comes around, (again and again and again) when the lawn needs to be done, it shouldn’t feel like an arduous chore.
And there’s no need to waste your hard-earned money on the lawn maintenance person to come around again and again (and again) to do it for you.
All you need to do is reach for your reliable, powerful gardening equipment to help you get the task done in a jiffy, and with minimal exertion—before moving on with the rest of your day.
With great quality outdoor power equipment in your hands to help you tend to your lawn, you have the satisfaction of doing it yourself, doing it fast and doing it easily. And, of course, saving yourself a ton of money over a period of weeks, months and years.
So, what are the essential gardening power tools you need to invest in to get the best-looking lawn in the neighbourhood—without breaking out in a sweat or draining your bank account? Let’s take a look at the top five must-have garden power tools for lawn care.
Achieve a great-looking lawn with the ideal lawn mower for your specific needs. Consider the size of your lawn, your own ability and the amount of storage room you have when it’s not in use. If you have a small or medium yard, think about lightweight, easy-to-manoeuvre, cordless push lawn mowers, such as the WORX WG779E Cordless Push Lawn Mower. These energy-efficient gardening power tools are powered by 40V (2x20V) batteries that have a relatively lower upkeep cost than traditional fuel-powered mowers, yet are powerful enough to cut through thick, dense grass. They are also more environmentally friendly and much less noisy than fuelled mowers.
For the ultimate hands-off, feet-up approach to lawn mowing, there are robot lawn mowers, such as the WORX WR149E 700M2 WORX LANDROID Robot Lawn Mower. This model uses cloud computing in conjunction with your inputs to judge the parameters of your lawn and cuts it effortlessly while manoeuvring around obstacles.
Once your lawn is cut, you are still not quite done. Because then it’s time to give your lawn edges a nice neat finish. Overall, it’s the difference between a superb-looking professional cut as opposed to a more ‘amateur’ look if you skip this part. With the right tool in your hands, you can achieve an amazing result with hardly any effort. A line trimmer (otherwise known as a grass trimmer) is a handy piece of gardening equipment that helps you trim around the edges of lawns and garden beds. If you are on the lookout for a multi-purpose trimmer, one like the WORX WG163E.2-B is one of the most versatile. It converts easily from a line trimmer to being an edger or a mini-mower without additional tools.
Hedges and shrubs are never far away from lawns. So once your lawn is cut and trimmed, it’s time to look to the side and attend to its immediate neighbours. With the right hedge trimmer, you can make your neat hedge a highlight of your street. There is no need to use heavy shears or fuel-powered trimmers to get the job done. You can shape and maintain your hedges and shrubs with cordless hedge trimmers such as those from WORX. The WORX range of hedge trimmers are nimble enough to reach into even small nooks and crannies yet powerful enough to cut through the brush. WORX hedge trimmers are powered by high-quality 20V rechargeable batteries that can also be used for other cordless WORX tools, such as line trimmers.
You may well ask why chainsaws are on this list. But while they may not be a piece of gardening equipment you immediately think of in relation to lawn care, chainsaws do have their place because overhanging tree branches are a constant source of fallen twigs and leaves that end up on the lawn.
Chainsaws enable you to handle tree-trimming tasks to help keep your yard tidy. If you are looking for a powerful cordless chainsaw, consider the WORX NITRO 40V WG385E.B2 model for outstanding performance, faster charging and longer runtime. It makes even heavy-duty cutting tasks fast and easy.
And finally, after all the mowing and trimming tasks have been completed, it’s time for a big (and fast) yard cleanup to complete the job. You don’t need to worry about raking or sweeping up—just grab a powerful blower to clean and tidy up your lawns and pathways in only minutes. It’s important to get a quality, high-efficiency blower that does the job powerfully yet is light enough to hold for long periods of time. You may like to look through the WORX range of cordless, battery-operated leaf blowers—there are many sizes available, and there is one to suit all needs and budgets.
