How do I choose the best cordless garden trimmer?


Choosing the right cordless trimmer to suit your gardening needs is crucial for optimal performance. There are several factors to consider when looking for the perfect garden trimmer:

  • Adjustable Shaft: Choosing a model with an adjustable shaft length provides a higher level of flexibility, enabling you to reach low-lying areas with ease.
  • Runtime: Check the runtime of the cordless grass trimmer to ensure it can handle the size of your garden without needing frequent re-charging.
  • Cutting Width: Grass trimmers have varying cutting widths. A wider cutting width enables you to cover larger areas with more ease whereas a narrow width allows for a higher level of precision for more intricate trimming and edging. Some of our trimmers offer an adjustable cutting width to provide even more flexibility.
  • Line Feed System: Always look for a trimmer that is equipped with an efficient line feed system such as an automatic feed. This will ensure uninterrupted strimming and reduced downtime
  • Weight: Opting for a cordless trimmer that is lighter than alternatives will provide more comfort during use and reduce strain.
  • Safety: Always be sure to choose an battery grass trimmer that comes equipped with the essential safety features that will prevent possible accidents.

    Can you cut grass with just a trimmer?


    Trimmers are versatile tools that can be used to cut and edge grass in areas that are hard to reach with a lawnmower, such as around trees, along fences, and near flower beds. When using a trimmer to cut grass, it's important to adjust the cutting head to the appropriate height and to use smooth, even motions to achieve a clean and uniform cut. Additionally, using a trimmer with a grass cutting blade or attachment can make the task even more efficient.


    You can cut grass with a trimmer, but using a cordless lawn mower is generally easier for maintaining lawns.



    What’s the difference between a grass trimmer and a line trimmer?


    Line trimmer is just another name for a grass trimmer, they are the same product. It’s sometimes referred to as a line trimmer because it can be used to trim the edges of a lawn.



    What’s the difference between a grass trimmer and a line trimmer?


    Line trimmer is just another name for a grass trimmer, they are the same product. It’s sometimes referred to as a line trimmer because it can be used to trim the edges of a lawn.



    How does a cordless grass trimmer differ to a corded one?


    A cordless garden trimmer offers much more mobility than a corded one. A cordless trimmer operates on re-chargeable batteries meaning there is no risk of getting tangled with power cords. Using a cordless trimmer also means you don’t need to worry about having an electrical output nearby.



    What is a lawn edge trimmer used for?


    A lawn edge trimmer is a gardening tool that creates clean, crisp edges around your garden, giving it a polished and well-maintained look. It’s perfect for trimming borders along pathways, driveways, patios, flower beds, and other landscaping features. Unlike a lawnmower, which covers large areas, a trimmer focuses on precision, ensuring no stray grass or overgrowth spills into unwanted areas. This not only enhances the aesthetic of your outdoor space but also prevents overgrowth and weeds in garden beds or cracks. Whether you’re a casual gardener or lawn care enthusiast, a lawn edge trimmer is key to keeping your garden neat and professional-looking.



    How does a lawn edge trimmer differ from a grass trimmer?


    Lawn edge trimmers and grass trimmers may look similar, but they serve different purposes. A lawn edge trimmer is designed for creating clean, precise edges along paths, driveways, and flower beds, giving your garden a polished, professional finish. These often feature guide wheels or a fixed blade for straight, uniform edging.


    Grass trimmers, also known as string trimmers or weed eaters, are better suited for cutting overgrown grass, weeds, or vegetation in hard-to-reach areas like around trees, fences, or uneven terrain. They tend to use a spinning nylon string for cutting and are ideal for general trimming rather than detailed edging.


    While their functions overlap, edge trimmers focus on precision, and grass trimmers handle versatile, overgrowth tasks. Owning both tools can keep your lawn neat and well-maintained.



    Can I use a lawn edge trimmer on uneven terrain?


    Yes, many modern lawn edge trimmers are designed with adjustable height and angle settings, making them suitable for use on uneven or sloped terrain. These features allow you to customise the trimmer's position to match the contours of your garden, ensuring a clean and precise cut even in challenging areas. Additionally, some models come with durable wheels or stabilisers to provide better control and balance, making it easier to navigate bumpy or irregular surfaces. Always check the specifications of your trimmer to ensure it’s equipped for the job.


    What is the best type of grass edger for home use?


    A cordless grass edger is often considered the best option for home use because it offers a combination of convenience and practicality. Its lightweight design makes it easy to handle, even for extended periods, and the lack of a cord means you won’t have to worry about being tethered to a power outlet or dealing with tangled cables. Cordless models are also highly manoeuvrable, allowing you to navigate around flower beds, pathways, and other obstacles with ease. Plus, many modern cordless edgers come with rechargeable batteries that provide ample runtime for most garden maintenance tasks, making them an efficient and user-friendly choice for homeowners.


    How often should I use a grass edger?


    How often you should use a grass edger depends on how frequently you maintain your lawn and the rate at which your grass grows. For most lawns, edging every 2-3 weeks strikes a good balance to keep borders neat and well-defined. If you prefer a more polished look or your grass grows quickly, you might want to edge weekly. Regular edging not only improves your lawn’s appearance but also prevents grass from encroaching onto walkways or flower beds, making it easier to maintain over time.


    Are grass edgers battery-powered or gas-powered?


    Grass edgers come in both battery-powered (cordless) and gas-powered models. Battery-powered models are eco-friendly and quieter, perfect for domestic use. Being part of the Ryobi ONE+™ System also allows you to switch battery life and offers freedom between our collection of over 200 cordless tools for the home, garden, automotive, crafting and more.


    Do I need to sharpen the blades of an edge cutter?


    Yes, it's important to sharpen the blades of your edge cutter regularly. Dull blades can result in uneven cuts, tearing the grass instead of slicing it cleanly, which can harm your lawn's health over time. Sharp blades not only improve the precision of your edging but also reduce strain on the tool, extending its lifespan. By maintaining sharp blades, you ensure a healthier, well-manicured lawn and a more efficient cutting experience.

    Ryobi garden edge trimmers are easy to use for beginners because of several key features:

  • Lightweight Design – Many Ryobi trimmers are built with lightweight materials, making them easy to handle and manoeuvre, even for those with little experience.

  • Adjustable Shaft & Handle – Telescoping shafts and ergonomic handles allow users to adjust the tool for comfort and better control.
