Default Need a new grass trimmer.

Can anyone recommend a reasonably-priced petrol grass trimmer? Checked out some of the reviews of some of the Bunnings ones and they seemed a tad rubbish... Departing our rental next weekend so need to tidy up a bit and new place has a larger garden hence petrol probably the way to go.

I would get one from your local hire shop and see how you get on. Its not that often you will need a grass trimmer and unless you have arms like a gorilla, about 20 mins work is most you can do in bursts.

Use the shoulder strap to avoid fatigue

Rent a big lawnmower and set it on the highest cut

Or borrow a couple of sheep/goats
