When it comes to dealing with Mother Nature, I’ll take all the help I can get. Whether it’s weeds taking over the garden, the lawn creeping over the sidewalk, or out-of-control tree limbs, having the right tool to tame the problem makes the job much faster and easier. Unfortunately, this usually entails purchasing several specialized tools – a string trimmer, an edger, and a pole saw, for example. The EGO folks have come up with a way to provide you with all three – or any combination – and save you some storage space, and some money, in the process.
