Try to work out the size of the area or areas you are going to be working on. Will you be needing to help a friend or family member with a particularly large garden? If so, you might want to think about investing in a grass strimmer with a larger cutting width, and the battery life is another important factor to be considered.

Although not as powerful as petrol strimmers, they are a lot better for the environment and have advantages over a standard corded electric strimmer, like the fact that they run off lithium-ion batteries, and this gives you more range and freedom of movement. We recommend that you choose a tool with an adjustable telescopic shaft and a pivoting head for both horizontal and vertical cutting. Also, consider the cutting width of the tool. Strimmers with a large cutting width can chop down more grass in one sweep but are not the best option for delicate work.

Terratek’s cordless strimmer stands out from the crowd for one very clear reason. Instead of the usual plastic wire cutter, Terratek’s offering instead uses nylon ‘blades’ that simply clip into place.
