Lehr Eco Trimmer ST025DC
Written by admin on March 8, 2010 – 2:32 am -Lehr Eco Trimmer ST025DC Est. $210 The Lehr Eco Trimmer ST025DC is a curved-shaft string trimmer that's as powerful as a gas trimmer. However, the LEHR trimmer uses 1-pound propane canisters for fuel instead of gas, a solution that's less polluting. Whileyou won't have to buy gas, you'll have to stock up on propane canisters, which cost $3 to $5 each and give you about two hours of runtime. The canisters can't be refilled, but they are recyclable when empty. The Lehr trimmer weighs 15 pounds with the canister, so it's lighter than many gas trimmers, but a lot heavier than an electric trimmer.

Best Cordless Grass Trimmer
Written by admin on March 7, 2010 – 12:07 am -Black & Decker Grass Hog NST2018 If you mainly need to trim edges of a lawn (and not tall grass or weeds), experts and owners top-rate the 7-pound, cordless Black & Decker NST2018. This trimmer runs quietly and can last about 25 minutes per charge; two batteries are included, extending runtime to about an hour. Owners say this model works well on maintained lawns, but it's not powerful or durable enough to handle tall grass or weeds.

Its quiet performance and light 7-pound weight are big advantages, and... more

Propane String Trimmers
Written by admin on July 23, 2009 – 4:39 am -by Jann Swanson Gas powered lawn and garden equipment are environmental disasters. Here are some ugly statistics from the EPA. • Gas lawn mowers create 5 percent of U.S. air pollution; and even higher percentage in metropolitan areas. • Garden equipment engines emit high levels of carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds, and nitrogen oxide. • Gas mowers consume 800 million gallons of gas per year. • Gardeners spill 17 million gallons of fuel each year while refueling lawn equipment - more than the oil spilled by the Exxon Valdez. Now believe that last one if you want, but I have heard 100,000 gallons spilled in the U.S. just from mowers - sounds more realistic - but whatever the volume, spilled fuel contaminates groundwater and... more
