Doc I'm 43 and my dad had a Snapper model like this back in the 80's. I used to send sparks flying trying to use that thing as a kid lol. This is an OG edger for sure. I need an edger myself but I think I'm going to get a stick edger. Thanks for the review!
Just purchased this edger and have to say that I am thouroghly impressed with the lines it made for me. I was using a old Ryobi electric since November of 1997, lol, so it was definitely time for something new!
Just ordered the edger. This will be great for my needs. I’m like you. I will probably only run it about 30-40 minutes per use. This will definitely sharpen up my edging game lol. Thanks for bring it to my attention. Love the videos and the recommendations 👍
Hey Doc. Just an update. I’ve had this edger for one year now and this thing is AWSOME. It has not give me one problem. The only thing I’ve had to do is routine maintenance and replace the blade as needed. My edges have been on point ever since it arrived. Thanks again for the recommendation. Hard to believe it’s been a year already. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank You, great review Doc. I am particularly happy to see you concerned about price. Many RUclips creators review only the high end stuff and report how good it is. Many of us homeowners want good products that are more affordable. Thank You again.
Just bought this during black Friday. Was nervous it wouldn't do the job. Little did I know, Doc had already made a video about it. Thanks
Doc.
My lawn is so thick this green season 2021. It’s so unreal. 😁😅
Thank you very much.
Time to purchase an edger.
Subscribed not because of the edger review (though I did enjoy), but rather I subscribed just because the lawn looks so damn good. Man, I’m jealous.
Doc, the yard looks really sharp. Thanks for posting.
That’s the same damn edger my brother gave us last year! For FREE!! I like mine even though my curbs are sloped and all I have to do is angle the blade and let ‘er roll!!
Super job and it is hard to start 😂
I have an older, Craftsman branded version. Looks to be the exact same thing, except its a different engine.
LOVE IT. Odd thing is, pump the primer 4x and it just plain starts. I can have year old gas in it and it runs like a new engine. I'm never getting rid of it. If I needed more room in the garage, I'd start pitching stuff out to make room!
Thanks Doc, I've watched a couple of your videos and enjoy them, you seem relaxed and eager to help people 👍
I recently bought an older McLane edger with a Briggs engine and the original blade was wore down to about 6 inches so I went to Lowes and bought a star shaped blade with a 5/8" hole and I needed one with a 1/2" hole so I also got a 5/8 to 1/2 inch reducer sleeve and welded it to the blade. So far so good, and I also painted and oven baked it with lime green engine enamel (rattle can variety). I didn't want to wait on shipping for a blade with a 1/2" hole and Lowes didn't have any in the length I needed so I went the country boy route, lol.... I'll find out tomorrow how it all goes, fingers crossed.
Another great video! Man that Reel Mower is amazing! I will have to see if you have a recent sprinkler video like this one.
Hey Doc, I put together an Agri-Fab plug aerator last week, 203 parts! Should have been about 1.5 hour job. However, with me being a bit dyslectic when it comes to pictograms, it took me over 3 hours with re-do's! LOL
Have a great day.
Your yard is absolutely gorgeous wonderful job with the edger.
I bought the edger attachment for my husqvarna string trimmer and it works great and only $64
I like it that you can adjust it to trim on the street side
Thanks, for sharing. You have a gorgeous looking yard.
Thank you for the amazing demonstration but, someone raised a question. He/she said “ where can you store it”. He/she is right, an average household like me has two car garage so where can I put this?
Great video Doc, thanks. My dad had me taking care of the lawn when I was 13. That was 30 years ago and walk-behind edgers were commonplace. I still have a 25 year-old right-sided blade Pemberton. Do you have any idea why the newer model walk-behinds are only available with the blade on the left side now? It seems counter-intuitive.
That curb feature alone makes it worth it. Im using a old McLane edger and it lacks that feature. Gotta use a lot of wrist to keep blade contact. Cheers Doc
Beautiful Lawn Doc!!
I have a black and decker electric edger which is just fine. Yes it is a pain to drag cords. I am going to buy an edger attachment for my stihl powerhead.
Hi ,
Great video. Could you please tell me when the Super Juice will be available?
Thanks
Your lawn is beautiful!
I like the curb feature.
Curious why the angle on the blade.. I have always ran mine straight.
There is only one battery powered Edger with excellent reviews, and that's the EGO 56-Volt Edger. With over 5,000 5-star Reviews, it lives up to the hype--love it! No gas, no oil, and no annual maintenance makes it even better. Unfortunately, EGO is like the luxury version of battery-powered lawn equipment, so there stuff isn't cheap!!
My dad has the exact same edger and he loves it. Nice video
Yep I paid $700 AUD for a a well known battery powered brand, skin only at $270 AUD but by the time you end buying the battery and charger it was 700. I could have bought a decent petrol edger for that. The one of got is decent enough and has battery power to boot at 36v, but at that price I'd rather the simplicity of a petrol model. Love the videos btw, I have Bermuda here in Australia, or as we call it couch, so your vid's are very helpful.
Good vid Doc. Helps me with purchase considerations. Thanks!~
Man, your Bermuda grass is really uniform already. Your Super Juice is working just as you said it would. My Bermuda is still 1/2 brown!
So old school I live on corner property the ego stick edger is amazing light weight easy to use same blade as big edger your lawn looks great good luck
Thanks for another good vid, Doc!
Lawn looks awesome, BTW
👍👍
Thats a major disadvantage, but it does wash away after a watering or two.
Guess I'm old school , still love my Briggs and Stratton gas Edger . Mine doesn't have the curb adjustment- I do love that part . It's a pain to do my curb with mine . But I just give $50.00 for mine 10 years ago , I'll live with it .
Can you Please do a New Sod guide or tutorial? We had Tifway 419 installed in our new house at closing, a few days before Christmas 2018. It is starting to green up now, but needed some direction. It hasn't taken root yet, and is mostly weed free, but my neighbors is probably 95% weeds and don't want it infesting my lawn.
I know your webpage said DON'T put pre emergent on new sod, and I don't want to shock the lawn, but was thinking of ordering Super Juice as soon as it's back in stock and putting it down full strength. Other than that, I have a little Nutsedge, but was thinking I could spot treat that with Image Concentrate in a 32oz water bottle and some dye, so I only hit the small problem areas?
Other than that, the lawn hasn't been treated at all for weeds yet, and I really don't have any weeds, but was curious what granule or stuff I should use to strengthen this lawn up as quickly as possible without shocking it.
Love the channel!!
I have an EGO edge with a 5.0 battery. My battery last for about 50 minutes without any issues. Takes me about 20 -25 minutes to edge my lawn every two weeks. Takes 30 minutes for a full charge with the super charger. Bought mine new on Ebay for $145.00
Sir Doc,
Do have an estimate on when super juice will be available again?
Thanks again!
Your lawn is better than some 4 or 5 stars resort I've been in 👌
I have had Troy built with Brigg Stratton engine, best value for money I have owned for 14 years and runs well. Maybe you could replace engine later, but yours may not be heavy duty.
i got the Powermate edition of this edger. Same thing except it's orange from Home Depot. Problem is this duck don't quack! Tech support said they don't really use regular gas very well because of the ethanol, so I siphoned the tank and put that expensive fuel fro HD in. Still no start. After exploring some video reviews of this model, I found someone who confirmed that this is a very hard engine to start. It took him several days to get it to start and much work. And he said it's still hard to start.
love the doggy cameo
Excellent review! I went about getting one of these backwards - bought one, THEN looked for reviews! But I just assembled it and look forward to trying it out. What are your thoughts on using ethanol free gas?
beautiful lawn, what do you use to keep it this way?
I have found that edging every time I cut the grass only takes about 2-3 minutes.
Small yard? Or what tool are you using I'm in the market for a edger
I was thinking about getting your old edger just for my driveway area and little sidewalk, your thoughts on it?
wow cleans it right up nice job
Thank you Sr. Very much.
I love my 18v Ryobi edger even tho I have to replace the blade every three months
I really want to buy one but is sold out in Home Depot and amazon can’t deliver this to California 😩
I own this edger,he’s cutting short fine grass,I cut st Augustine grass and you have to go really slow for it to do a good job.it’s also hard to start.
What do you use to edge between your planters and the grass? That's where I have a huge problem of grass runners growing into the flower beds. What edger is good for that? I don't like how the string trimmers look.
it gives a better cleaning edge and it's good for a lot over. if it's a lot of over growth on the sidewalk Leslie if you get a new house you just first .
Hey Doc lawn looking great. Had a similar edger for years found it easier just to balance the wheel on the curb rather than put the wheel down upgraded to a Stihl handheld edger
The one downfall about your edger is it's another big piece of equipment taking up room in the garage.
Your lawn looks great. OK, bought this edger last yr and find myself not using it because it doesn't handle curved lines well at all. Is it me or the edger? Agree with everything else you mentioned in your video. Any tips?
Any ideas when super juice will be available again?
Also, engines can be swapped out... or upgrade with a bit of effort
Nice lawn, looks awesome.
I bought a work x battery weed eater/ edger, it's junk.
Could this be used to maintain the edge around flower beds?
I cannot find the primer on my edger. My son says it doesn’t have one, but I cannot start it
They craftsman edger i have must be 35 plus years old - and its the same basic style as the new ones, just with more features and better built.
What happens if you accidentally went over the sidewalk. Will it damage the blade?
I have worked with these before make sure all fillings and dentures are tightly secured lol
Does good for walkways but doesn’t do a thing for flower beds and tree circles. The 15 degree bevel is only a straight cut so you gotta still go back with a shovel and remove. It doesn’t throw the dirt out of the trench.
Good video just earned a new subscriber
Hello, I just bought this edger and I'm reading some of the reviews on this and it's scary. A lot of reviews about it leaking oil and being very hard to start. Have you experienced any of these issues? Mine is coming tomorrow.
What about the stihl bed redefiner? Same same or different?
My driveway is not straight and I have some beds with curves and one circular bed. How does this edger handle the curves?
What about the weed whacker attachment
Can you tell me what make this edger is iam looking at a baumr-ag edger I don't know if thy are available in the states
I love my battery powered Ego. It easily finishes the job on one battery.
I have the exact same model you just displayed. I am unable to locate my manual I need too replace my belt that is worn out. Would you have the part number for the belt to this unit? I purchased it a generic belt however, this belt is unsatisfactory. Hope to hear back from you thank you.
You should of showed when you did the curbs?&
This knockoff reminds me of my Craftsman Eagle One, 3.5hp, edger (ancient). Looks and has all the same features. Love it and still does a good job. Thanks for the Vid.
I have the same model, works like a champ
What kind of grass do you have?
Nice how much cost
where do I get the ph tester from
You seem to have a fairly nice size property...There’s no way I’d be messing with a stick edger with that size of property.
Whats a good thing to get rid of the clover in my yard, do you have a video on clover and or other weeds... just started following you this week, Doc, think your awesome! Going to do the Doc treatment to my yard this year. Lol
Nice edger
Nice yard 👍🏽👍🏽
How well does it work on curves?....
Doc. Apr 2021. How is it holding up?
Call me an*l but one of the things that drives me “crazy” about this type of edger is the stripes left on the sidewalk from the dirt under the tires! Just another thing to wash off (can’t blow those off!!!) to get a really clean “finished” job. Yes, I know I am.... 🤪😎😁
Thanks for a great review though Doc!
I'm with you Brother, mine does the same and drives me nuts! I wind up cleaning the tires several times doing the edging, just to alleviate the tire marks.
I noticed that as well, I was thinking that a pass with the power washer afterwards would clean those up
BELT LOOKS A LITTLE LOOSE. NO WAY TO PUT TENSION ON IT ? IT'LL ONLY GETS WORSE ONCE IT BREAKS IN.
Very cool man.
I just use the weed whacker and a flat shovel but. Guess I just like to sweat enjoy my youth
Use it or lose it unless it brakes I guess
Did he ever mention the brand?
What is it?
Used to have one like this. New one cost close to $300. And would take up to much space in garage. Plus noticed how it left tire marks on sidewalk. Im looking for a smaller and lighter. Getting tired of using the weed whacker
Look for a stick edger... I just tired of carrying one with all the edging I do.
Hey Doc. When you use your blower to blow the debris back into the lawn, I am seeing some sort of a "phantom dirt line" on the sidewalk from what I assume is the back wheel of the edger. 8:14 That would drive me crazy! It doesn't look like it is easily blown away. How did you remove it from the pavement? Love your vids
What edger is it? Would help if its name were in the title.
Let me correct you on your "Battery Edger" comment. I have a complete line of battery lawn products. I also work for Samsung EV Battery division. So believe me when I say My 80v Side walk edger "Rocks" it will do both sides of 200ft of side walk on 1 batt. If you want more info let me know. I enjoy your vids, Keep them coming.
You only need to edge a yard like that probably once a year and the rest of the time you use a weed eater at an angle. The reason for that is a weed eater can't cut into the dirt at least not in a timely manner. Those push edgers are a must when you're cutting a lawn that is over grown and or has never been edged before.
great for home use ,dies real quick if you use t for hours every day...suggest the $399 DR if you cut more than 3 yards a week P.S. most cordless electric edgers are sold without battery so add 150 bucks or more to the cheap advertised price
Why not a Kombi system and a edger attachment? Yea I have close to 1200 in mine. But String trimmer, pole saw, hedge trimmer, edger
Ive got the km130 motor and the edger is awesome
Forgot to mention in comment below that it does leave tire marks. Look at the end result on the video and you will see these displayed prominently. Most of my edging is along asphalt so the marks don't show, but they sure do on white concrete areas I have. Someday I may swap out the cheap plastic wheels for better ones.
I have an edger similar to this. I love it but hate it. It requires little to no effort on your part, but it's too bulky to edge around beds. The manoeuvrability isn't the greatest.
Amazing lawn Doc! I prefer edging with my weed eater edging attachment, but then again I don't have as much edging as you do 👍
My husband has this edger and loves it but I’d having major trouble changing the blade. Has anyone had any luck with this process??
I have the 20 year old version... changing the blade is super easy, just like on a lawnmower. Use a wood block or a heavy glove on your off hand to keep the blade from moving and loosen the nut.
Well your edger has a tri arc blade p,s what. Kind is it 😀
