STIHL electric trimmer

  • The most effective tool that we can easily recommend in this article is obviously the STIHL electric trimmer, because the STIHL electric edge trimmer is perfect for cutting lawn edges with remarkable precision without annoying neighbours, clearing small areas of grasses not far from dwellings and trim grasses in places that are barely accessible (around trees and shrubs, around flower pots, near the foundations of buildings, along paths in the garden and flowerbeds).
  • Cutting the edges of the lawn with a  STIHL electric brushcutter instead of  a STIHL electric edger,  for example, is not always suitable, since the dimensions of the brush cutter are not suitable for this type of task. As a result, the quality of work is not exemplary. However, the best solution is to use each tool for the type of job it was intended for.
