I didn't like to use this trimmer for edging, it was awkward, hot, and heavy. It did however work well for trimming weeds. I was also disappointed that there apparently are no other attachments available for this trimmer.
How long have you owned it:
One-to-three months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
