- Edging
- Battery
- Driveways
- Sidewalks
- Low maintenance
A purpose-built battery edger for homeowners who want showroom-crisp borders along driveways and beds without gas or a corded unit.
Pros
- Dedicated wheeled edger cuts crisper, straighter borders than a tilted trimmer
- Brushless 40V motor with depth control and a guide wheel makes straight lines easy
- Battery convenience with no fuel, part of Ryobi's large 40V lineup
Cons
- A single-purpose tool many owners cover with a trimmer edging attachment
- ~14 lb and wheel-based, so tight or curvy beds take more effort
- 40V pack is not cross-compatible with Ryobi's popular 18V ONE+ tools
