I was recently thinking that a petrol strimmer would be ideal to make finishing the lawn a lot easier. Then I saw this article and I hadn’t realised there were so many different types and brands to consider. It is good to see so much detail that will make it possible to make a decision and find a suitable machine as mowing the lawn gets a lot more difficult the older you get. I have tried electric trimmers before but my preference is a petrol powered machine by a long shot
