Lowe’s carries some of the most trusted brands, including CRAFTSMAN®, BLACK+DECKER, Husqvarna and Kobalt®. The best models have a long runtime and lots of power for tough jobs. They’re also great for keeping edges along driveways and sidewalks neat. And you can make your shopping experience even faster by taking advantage of our Buy Online, Store Pickup option.Ī: String trimmers are ideal for cutting grass and weeds along fence lines, around trees and flower beds, and in other sections of your yard that a lawn mower can’t reach. Lowe’s has everything you need to accomplish the job and keep your equipment running smoothly, from replacement parts and attachments to string trimmer line and string trimmer heads. If you don’t need a gas or electric hedge trimmer, a simple pair of hedge clippers will help you get the job done, but the work will go a little more slowly.Īlong with lawn mowers, leaf blowers, lawn and garden hand tools, and other outdoor tools and equipment, trimmers and edgers are essential to the upkeep of your yard. Cordless hedge trimmers eliminate the need for a separate extension cord, but they must be charged before use.
Electric pole hedge trimmers don’t use fuel and have an unlimited runtime, but you’ll need an extension cord, so they can only be used in locations within range of an outdoor electrical outlet. Plus, they require regular engine maintenance and occasionally small repairs.

Gas hedge trimmers, which professional landscapers typically prefer, offer a long runtime and an unlimited range of use, but you’ll have to purchase fuel, usually a mixture of gas and oil. When you’re shopping for one, remember that the power source is the most important feature to consider. Use a hedge trimmer, a small, handheld landscaping tool, for shaping hedges and pruning small shrubs. For harder-to-reach trimming jobs, use a pole hedge trimmer, which extends your reach, helping you bring order to landscape features like hedges. These models are well suited for modest properties, run quietly and don’t produce emissions. A battery-powered trimmer allows unrestricted movement so you can get to all areas where weeds are present, like around fence lines, in flower beds and other landscaped spaces elsewhere in your yard. If you’re looking for a gas- and cord-free option, consider cordless grass trimmers. However, they may require an outdoor extension cord, and the corded design limits mobility, making them ideal for smaller areas. With corded models you don’t need to worry about refueling or recharging - all you need is an electrical outlet. Not one to mess with fuel? Electric grass trimmers are an excellent alternative and just as easily get the job done. For large, overgrown lots and rugged terrain, your best bet is a wheeled string trimmer. Have dense brush and undergrowth? Consider a brush trimmer, or brush cutter, for clearing tough vegetation and even small saplings. Four-cycle engine models also provide more powerful output. 2-cycle types require a gas-oil mixture for operation, and 4-cycle engines keep those components separate. They come with either a 2-cycle or 4-cycle engine. Gas string trimmers, like a Troy-Bilt 4-cycle trimmer, can take on larger areas and tackle heavier jobs with great efficiency and ease.
