I don’t know the brand, but one with a rechargeable battery I suspect.

What type of weed whip did Sara use? Electrical, gas or manual? I’d like some help in deciding which type of tool to purchase. Thanks!

He was a skilled gardener, maintained it, and mowed it when winter rolled around. The house sold, and the new owners left the meadow, do not maintain it, do not mow it, and it basically it looks like a weed field year round. It is so overgrown and uncared for that they hired a company to spray this season which included a man wearing a white spacesuit and helmet so he wasn’t exposed to the spray which of course drifted to neighbors all around. A meadow on acreage is one thing, and a meadow on even a large lot is another.

Someone also mentioned an electric mower so I’d like to highly recommend a Ryobi Battery mower with 40 HP battery. I’ve had one for three years, and I’d give it high marks. It mows great with or without the bag, in the fall it does a great job of picking up leaves with the bag on, and it stores compactly.
