EGO Power+EA0800 8-Inch Edger Attachment for EGO 56-Volt Lithium-ion Multi Head System,Silver

Purchased to allow me to use one power head and have multiple tools for my yard work. Worked out fantastically for me. One power head and I have an edger, tiller, and string weeder. Tool head is durable and works perfectly to keep my yard edged. The best part is one battery, one power head, and it saves me garage storage space. I can strongly recommend this tool and my application philosophy

I wish I had made the switch to all electric lawn tools earlier. This EGO lawn edger has plenty of power and adjustability to make lawn edging a much easier task. I had no issues going about 1" or so below the soil line. Being able to quickly change out accessories from the universal power head is really nice and I now have three other tools that I can swap in and out in about 5 second. The huge benefit is not having to deal with gasoline and mixing the oil and the inevitable leaking with gas tools.

Works as advertised. I also used the Ego string trimmer to mop up whatever the edger cut. Using the two together made the job super easy. It was easy to control, so I didn't tear up anything accidentally.

Easy to attach and well made, but heavy and ungainly. I'm wondering now if the version w/ a carbon-fiber shaft might not be the better investment. Also, you have to hold the assembled tool at a strangely low angle to get the cutting to happen effectively (I tried the guide wheel at the highest setting). I'm not unhappy, but not blown away by this system by any means.

I live on a corner lot with LOTS of sidewalk. I absolutely despise edging that much sidewalk, but it does look nice when done. I've had a Black & Decker edger for many years and it's such a chore. I typically spend a few hours where I'm miserable. I'm trying to jam the edger forward to get a good edge. Even a new blade with the B&D doesn't help much. I can only manage to do this chore twice a season, at the most.My previous purchase, the EGO trimmer was an outstanding product and made me not hate trimming any longer, so I thought I would give the EGO Edger attachment a try. What an an outstanding product! Instead of the edger needing to be pushed, the EGO is Pulling me forward. My 2 hours of misery was reduced to about 15 minutes. I did blow through both of my batteries, but I haven't done the edging at all yet this summer... just used the trimmer to make it look halfway decent. I'll bet if I do this once every 2 weeks or so, I'll spend no more than 5 minutes on my whole sidewalk. My sidewalk doesn't look so long anymore... until winter comes.EGO, your company really knows what they're doing.

For years I resisted having a dedicated edger, despite the number of actual edges my property has. I'd use my weed whacker or, in the old days, just a straight-edged shovel that was sharpened a bit. Labor intensive, but they worked.I'd tried an early version of a modular edger with power supply, an early Ryobi ... but the linkage was sloppy and loose, and that unit was a piece of garbage, so I returned it and stuck with the weed whacker. (NOTE: the newest Ryobi models have, they say, fixed those problems. I have no personal experience with the newer models to compare them though.)I'd gotten the EGO pole hedgetrimmer to take care of some tall hedges I have, so I already had the power unit... I figured what the heck, at worst if the edger doesn't work I can return it. I'm happy to say it worked. Beyond my wildest imagination it worked!This has been a game changer for me. With my weed whacker all the edging would take an hour easily. First time out with the edger, fifteen minutes ... and that includes the break for some Gatorade. The unit has a little bit of a pull, which you can quickly adapt to to let it feed you forward. The only challenge, if I can even call it that, is deciding how deep to make the cut; the actual adjustment is a simple finger knob, so easy as pie to actually do. Hard to imagine it easier.Using the hedgetrimmer pole, I thought the whole thing was over-heavy, not well balanced. But as an edger, gravity does the work for you. Easiest yard chore I think I've ever done. VERY happy with the unit!And the finished look? Far more professional looking that my whacking ever was. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!And no, nobody gave me a dime for this review!

This attachment works great with my Ego cordless system. I have no trouble edging over 400 feet of drive and walkway with battery life to spare. I like the open side of the trimmer that allows easy removal of caked dirt and grass. My last high end trimmer had a closed trimming guard and when the ground was moist I had to stop every twenty feet or so, stop the trimmer to clean it out. I love not having to worry that my carburetor is not gummed up after sitting for a month or so. No more tune ups. I am in the process of converting all my gas yard tools to Ego. Nice being able to by one accessory at a time as the old ones get hard to start. I highly recommend this trimmer attachment.

I read a lot of reviews and they say this thing is hard to use or breaks. Even amazon asked if I was sure iwanted to buy it, because there was a high rate of returns for this item.My experience has been really good. It was easy to swap out the attachments to the power head. It was pretty self explanatory to use. I've used it for a few weeks now without issue...
