Landscaping tool reviews cover new cordless lawn equipment as well as zero turn mowers and garden tools. Of course, gas powered trimmers and blowers also represent a large portion of our reviews. Reviews of outdoor power equipment products help landscaping professionals as well as arborists understand which tools perform the best for their needs. This is especially important for new cordless technologies. Some tools, like the Husqvarna 36V chainsaw is great for limbing. Other tools like the DeWalt 40V Max backpack blower are better for semi-Pro use. Landscaping Tool Reviews for Professional Landscapers Professionals often think they know who makes the best tools. Most of them go for gas-powered models. Get them involved in a 36V chainsaw shootout, however, and they get to think outside of the box. Some tools, like the Husqvarna M-ZT zero turn mower are a long ways away from going cordless. Other tools, like the Makita LXT 18V brushless trimmer make a lot of sense.
Ryobi 40V Backpack Blower Offers Impressive Power We put the cordless Ryobi 40V backpack blower through its paces to see how it compares to other models in its class. The big deal is that it’s a 40V cordless model using a brushless motor to deliver its power and it doesn’t have a ton of competition. […]

As the world progressively gets more up-in-arms over the noise and emissions of gas motors, particularly in Pro lawn care applications, we’re learning that modern problems require modern solutions. That’s where the Greenworks battery-powered line of commercial zero turn mowers (and two residential models) come in. They already make one of the best electric lawn […]

Skil 40V Mower Has What It Takes for Lawn Maintenance Skil’s 40V line of OPE tools thus far has been on-point. Granted, the line is clearly geared toward the homeowner rather than the OPE Pro, but we felt that both the blower and hedge trimmer offered a relatively high amount of bangs for a very […]
