I need a weed trimmer and I don't know what kind to buy. I need to weed eat my fence line and I have five acres. I already have a riding lawn mower, push mower and weed hog. I have used electric weed trimmers and they haven't worked so well. Where can I get a good gas weed trimmer?


Answer
Don't use an electric one. If you are above 5.10, you need to get one with a straight shaft and not one that is curved.

Best brands are Stihl, Echo, Huscavarna, and I have had good luck with a toro also. See if you can find one with a Honda Engine on it.

You want to get a high quality trimmer that allows you to replace the line very easily. With 5 acres you are going to have to let the line out 7 or 8 times. Also get a heavy duty one that uses a thicker line so you won't have to keep replacing it. Best Luck!

What is a better self propelled mower - front wheel or back wheel?

I am looking to buy a self propelled lawn mower. Just wondering what people seem to prefer, front wheel propelled or rear wheel? Can you tell me your choice and why? Thanks


Answer
tinman and renpen make some excellent points. Generally, if I'm going to save the exercise on pushing, I'd opt for the more expensive rear wheel drives. They usually have a clutch, which will allow you to make your turns without lifting anything moving. The cheaper ones are usually front wheel driven. I'd spend the money on rear-wheel, usually it's also better quality. Also, I've used these, and they give better control. Look/inspect the better brands/models, they're usually rear-wheel driven.
But to each his/her own. Good luck and happy mowing.
