Lightweight weed eater

[Steveyf]

I'm not a very strong woman, so I need something that is easy to handle and not hard on my back. I've never been real hand with a weed eater, so something even a monkey could use would be best.

You should consider one of the Black & Decker battery powered weed eaters. Those are light and do a pretty good job, providing your lawn isn't too large and the grass isn't too high. Good luck on whatever you decide to do. :thumbsup:

I'm not a Ryobi fan, but I've had one of their units for 10 years and its still going strong. It has switchable attachments. Homelite makes a similar unit with attachments such as blowers, hedgers, etc. When my unit finally dies, I'll replace it with the smallest Echo. They make good, reliable tools.

I had a corded unit years ago and will never go back to one again. Cords are a trip hazard and if you have standing water, its never a good idea to use an electric tool, unless its battery powered.
