This is a slick idea! And your review was very detailed Bro, great job. Your edges are super tight too.
Yeah that's the one thing I didn't expect from it I thought it would be like doing it with an actual edger and using a weed wacker
The Lawn Care Nut ihoihoh
I bought the edgit and haven’t installed the disk on my echo yet til I watched your review of edgit pro! Thank you!
Just started using it.....makes it easy to create sharp edges with a lot less effort than without it. Is especially easy if you have been using it on an edge as the Edgit just runs inside the already created groove. A game changer for me.
Man, I've been using one of these for more than 8 years. It's one of the best tools I've purchased. I remember when I saw one of the neighborhood landscapers using this and wondered - "what in the world is that" - as he zipped down the curb edging the lawn. I found out what it was and immediately did a google. It has been attached to my Echo SRM 230 ever since. I just lock it between the curb and the grass and roll and make a perfect edge in no time, all the time.
I, too, had one of the attachment with the blade and even a machine with the blade. The Edgit is waay better than both in my opinion and the better investment for this type of work. I now have to get one for my Echo 266T (another beast).
Can you attach it to any weed eater?
Thanks for the info.I do about 4 hours a day strimming alone.You are right about sometimes not getting the right angle and the strimmer digging the grass up especially when it's mossy.
finally, someone with a great detailed review!
Will be buying one today. Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful review.
We've been using these for 20 years in Columbus Ohio, on Redmax and Shindaiwa... Chain link fences are a breeze with these..and the amount of line we go through was cut in half, they easily pay for themselves the first year..
+jmwilson614 I agree they are a great tool. I just hate that they spray so much rocks and debris every where. I also found that when trimming around trees the string doesn't wrap around the trunk like a regular trimmer does.
What company do you own in Columbus,Ohio ? I also, have a pretty big lawn care business as well.
jmwilson614 what is the model on your redmax
Are you able to see and control how much string is out? And how much dose it prevent the scalping?
I remembered this tool. I used to work for someone else and his company had an edgit pro on his echo weed eaters. The edges on the driveways, sidewalks, firepits, beds, etc looks really crisp.
awesome review, I'm definitely going to get one for my SRM225. Keep those videos coming 👍
I like the way they flatten out those areas you want more even. they do add quite a bit of weight to the tip of the trimmer and I never could get a thin line while edging with it.
Swimbait1 of
As a full-on string trimmer I have to ask;
1. What limits the string length?
2. How does it trim in to corners and narrow areas?
The string length has more to do with engine power than the edgit pro itself. I typically will cut the string flush with the edgit pro and do 2 bumps to get the length I like. It does good in corner (unless it's by building or obstacles the disc can't fit it) you just have to lift it up and free hand it rather than resting it on the ground
$8 - $10 a blade??? Damn what are they made of? I get a case of 50 for around $50 One blade lasts almost two weeks, I think Im going to try the edgit. Looks pretty handy.
Yea this made me have some questions as well. Mine are like $1.87 a blade st the echo dealer and I know that’s a rip. Lol
Lmfao trump lost, get over yourself
You guys beat me to it, I was going to say damn, where the hell are you buying your blades at, that they cost you $8 ea.?
Thanks. Bought the edgit and installed it. Will give it a try tomorrow.
How do you get more line as you shred it along the sidewalk? Is it auto-feed? You can't see over the disc.
Vas Sladek it depends on your trimmer head....I have a Echo bump feed head so I just hit it in the ground to get more string out. Depending on how you hold the trimmer you can see the line but you can also hear the whip of the line and rev of the engine as well to know when it’s getting shorter
You can add Shindaiwa to the brands list as I have one on my T254. These things are awesome.
Just got mine today and put it on. Looking forward to using it!
nice presentation, & great use of split screen. Peace.
Thanks for the review! Been eyeballing these... might give one a try!
Great video! Just one question though. Are you using the speedfeed heads on your trimmers with the edgit?
Yes we use the speedfeed on the trimmers.
How heavy is it? Cause the plastic cover is light doesn't make a huge difference . This looks like it would kill my arms using all day . I'm in NY we cut around 35 houses a day . This looks nice but the weight is what gets me
What type of string do you prefer for beat results with this attachment?
Thanks for the unbiased info. I bought one because of your video. Would you recommend rotating the trimmer handle to accommodate it's new orientation?
I do a lot of brush cutting and I timmer a lot of talk grass how dose it work for that type of thing I have looked at it and I think it would be great I run the echo srm-225 what do you think
I have a Shindawa....can you use it with that, or is it model specific? Thanks in advance for answering.
3:21. Can’t get that corner tho!!
Can I cut horizontally between shrubs w/o damaging the stems/trunks?
What kind of line are you using on the 225 with the edgit pro?
How does it cut string to right length. It must be right on edge of guide all the time.
Are they sold in Australia also they look like they have trouble in corners and rock areas that aren’t even
How can I buy one and also what is a price range for a good quality
$75 shipped to my house
add a basic top shield to stop rocks up into face. eg heavy rubber. worth a try. wouldnt be heavy.
Question Can you attach this device to a Black and Decker battery operated weed eater?
Would it work on ECHO’s lithium trimmer?

Get some darwin's grip for your crew please! My back hurts just from watching them
Excellent review. I'm sold
Anyone knows if the Edgit Pro (either model 1002 or 1019) fits a Shindaiwa B450 and/or T3410? Yes, the B450 might be a bit overkill. And yes, I had not realize Stihl FS90s and FS94s use yet another model, 1027. Excellent video!
Yankee Fan, thought Shindaiwa and Echo were the same company for the last 10yrs? That's why new Shindaiwa stuff is shit, compared to what it was in the mid 2000's.
How often do you have to put grease in it
Octavious Shropshire I use mine all the time and I grease about once a month
Where can I buy one from
Why would it have suction? It has nowhere for the air to go
If they ever make one for an Ego, I’m sold, even if it looks like a metal detector.
I like it and all and I really do but try one with out the edger pro and see for a comperson
I am the bosses son on a Lawn-Care crew, we just got are first edit pro. I'm not a big fan of how big it is for trimming and don't like how I can't get as close around some optical. how is that for u. we use stick edgers for all of are edging. are blades only cost use 1.5 to 2 dollars a blade.
Stihl FC-110 in my opinion is the best edger out there. I use Oregon blades, bout $50 for case of 50
Do they make these for husky trimmers?
can you use the bump and go with the edge pro
Is it good for scalping?
New Edgit Pro video coming soon! Higher quality video, more in depth tricks and tips on the product and how to train you and your employees faster!
Can you update a video on adding graphite to the “O-Ring” not using the cap on top as recommended in the instructions by Edgeit?
Sweet dude! I really like ur videos!
Where do they sell this??
I own a redmax trimmer where can you find one for redmax
Can you still weed eat along houses with the Edgit Pro on? It seems that the guard would block the string from getting the grass right up along the house.
The string goes about an inch past the metal disk
Sad, I was hoping it prevented rocks from flying into your face. We hardedge just using the weedwacker and get clobbered in high particle areas - rocks, sand, mulch, sticks, etc. I was hoping this would help with that. Back to the drawing board.
Can you adapt these to work on any trimmer?
No you can't. The mounting plate is different for each trimmer.
Also thing I would tht could help is using .08 line as well tht way there isn’t as much weight behind the line. Tht out for me as well, .105 as well tht way u can manager lower RPMs better, imo
the issue I have had with the thinner line is it wearing down faster so you go through more of it. but agree with what you said
@@AmbrosLandscapingInc even with the egdit
?^
@@bobbystewart2605Yes. You notice it when edging along concrete but not flower beds.
@@AmbrosLandscapingInc ah
Neat idea, but pretty much usless. Bought one of these a couple years ago. We mow about 3 years many with alot of edging. This adds significant weight to the very end of the trimmer head. It also has a tendacy to "Suction" to the ground. I tried it for most of one season and I am back to running my red max trimmers with bare head, no guard. Lighter, faster, way more maneuverable.
What type of a blower do you use?
My current favorite is the BR800C
A blade for stil cost like $1 if you buy in bulk
Great review , thanks for the info
Do you have to trim down the line manually?
Sideline Landscapes Nah, you will loose some as you edge. Also, you get a feel for how much to bump out.
You can sharpen the blade with a 10$ metal file in like 10mins dudemanbro. But, i dont use mine either .105 rotary sting is good enough.
im going to put that brush blade back on that old weedeater for the hedges i havnt trimmed in like 3years
i dont really remember what this was about. He said he didnt use his Brush cutter attachment? Mine is similar to this
www.ebay.com/itm/Poulan-Pro-Brush-Cutter-Trimmer-Attachment-952711610-New-/391759374088?epid=1201561155&hash=item5b36ada708:g:Tg0AAOSwk~NZzEN~
That looks like a brilliant idea but wouldn't work on my drive and walk way.I don't have the expensive (planted) grass.My grass is about five different types and it vines in some places especially near those edging areas.I have to use a edger (blade).A string trimmer would work you to death.Just saying,it's a great idea for those Nice lawns.BTW,Just finished edging mine.
Edgit Pro Review | Favorite Review to Share #landscaper #business #businesstips #landscape
Lol yeah I get my edger blades 50 for 50 and they last a season. Ok also i used to edge the traditional way, but now my trademark is my super defined 45 degree edge it gives my lawns a 3d pop. Why do you feel like it should only be straight, I'm not saying either way is the best but I like to learn from everyone, every person has the potential to know more than you so I like to hear the experience of all
Hi Daryl, I completely understand where your coming from. We do the 90 degree because its gives the lawn that "carpet effect" that most clients like. We maintain a few condo associations with well over 300 people, and they all hate the 45 degree that their previous landscapers did. When doing it around beds, it cuts into the ground which can then cause disease and moss (of course depending on where you live and how deep you cut).
Oh yeah of course not around beds, I mean just around walkways and driveways etc. But like with your picture for the video it's beautiful and I don't think the 45 would be complimentary, you know what it may be better to do the 45 on shorter grass as supposed to thicker cold season grasses
I'd have to add, coming from the same region as ambros, that generally speaking cutting a 45 on a hard edge would mean your taking at least 30-50% of the grasses overall length off in the last two inches of turf before edge end. Being that edges already are problematic to our cool season grasses due th drying out and "browning" it would only perpetuate that problem by trimming the edges shorter when placing a 45. In my opinion, a crisp, sharp defined 90 degree edge that has an equal grass length running throughout the entire turf surface is the true mark of a well seasoned landscaper.
Yeah I understand that, that's why I'm questioning it. I started off doing that way but the look I achieve when doing a 45 is breathtaking but like you said with your cool season grasses, It would depend, I never had a problem with browning on my edges, because I use an edger to make a more uniform cut, in my opinion I respect it and when done well its a thing of beauty but when I put my edge on it, it really brings a yard to life. Thank you for your input, because my whole dilemna is that even though it looks good, is it separating me from the best or is it making me the best. We're obviously all trying to be the best at what we do, I guess I need to do some research to be sure. I've gotten so many compliments from residents, park goers, and business alike. So if you know any articles or anything that can get me off doing it I'd be glad to read it.
Oh and also the grass is still the same length all the way to the edge
Geez, A month is a good bit of the season
how hard are they to install
Not hard at all...I have a video showing step by step how to install on either a stihl or echo trimmer
Like the product. I'll probably buy one for doing the beds, but for sidewalks, walkways, driveways etc I'll stick with our metal blade edgers, they create a a deeper edging and straighter edge and is faster to edge with. PS. anything at Home Depot or Lowe's is going to be more expensive, we pay $1.00 for each our blades and last us about week and half.
where do you buy your blades ?
GREAT REVIEW
they should make edgit pro for troy bilt trimmers
you can get 20 edger blades in bulk for like $40
How do you cut your line?
You don't. It'll trim off naturally as you're working. It's no different from using a string trimmer without a guard on it, which I've been doing for years. Plus, when the string is allowed to be longer (beyond where the guard's blade would normally be trimming it), you can run the engine at lower RPMs and reduce fuel consumption.
they make them for all kinds of trimmers know
A rock gave me a black eye yesterday trimming a yard fast it sucks I run on Guard it's easiest in my opinion
Pretty neat I'm gonna have to get one of these.
$8-$10 a blade?? I get a case of 50 every 3 months for about $60.00.....
Read the description box.
im not reading all that shit.
Ambro's Landscaping Inc. what sucker buys them two at a time at Home Depot? Yes, even at bulk prices, stick edge blades will cost more than this contraption, assuming it lasts for more than a year. However, I think the additional cost is worth it. Stick edging looks better than string trimmer edging every time. And less chance for damaging something.

Hmmmm… how many people are sold on this
Thanks.
This does not work like a lawnmower. A lawnmower sucks up grass because the blades are designed to. This would have little if not negative suction. In the video I can see it missing more and taking more effort then a regular setup would. Also, blades are about $1 a piece not $8-$10. I could see using this every other time switching between it and an actual edger but never for trimming as you can't see the actual work you are doing. If you get a 4-mixer trimmer you wont have to worry about windows as you can feather the power. Power when you need it and low power when it counts.
If only a system can be designed to trim foot markers in a cemetery.
1 tip: Don't stand straight up. Put an angle on it
Sound quality is too low.
Echo is the best
Simp
i have the srm 230 but no edgit pro but it's still a good weed eater and lol the edgit por sucks up the grass, you said, so that makes weed eaters a little bit more like weed "eaters" lol especially if edgit pro was for the crappy brand weed eater which it's not lol
l love this
8-10 Dollars ?? I only pay a dollar a piece????
I pay 50 cents per edger blade.
And yes I have shattered some seriously expensive Windows too
This is a good idea but for around $80,I have to pass
The $80 is high but they last me about 3 years with heavy use
Is “boughtin” a new word? 😂
I lost interest when he called a line trimmer a weed wacker.. An edger is made for edges.. 8.00 for an edger blade.. WOW..
wow that must have been very difficult to type all of that with that stick stuck up your ass.....hope you feel better
calm down little buddy...weed wacking ass? haha what kind of insult is that? Here is some criticism for you....you spelled "Whacker" wrong in your first comment...public school is doing well for you :)
Ambro's Landscaping Inc. Good for u on your spelling.. Guess u would know how to spell that considering u "whack" your edges instead of using an actual edger..
No need to reply back, I went ahead and unsubscribed to your channel! I will say though, u have a nice setup!
There are many maintenance professionals that "whack" there edges and don't use stick edgers....did you just start yesterday?
#audio terrible. can't hear
If the guy in the white shirt needs a job tell him I will give him $16/hour.
Ha that's me in the white shirt as well. When can I start?

+Ambro's Landscaping Inc. Tomorrow. It's too bad you're the owner. I have never seen an employee actually work that quickly. I bust my butt like that, but an employee that does would be amazing. It looks like you have a good thing going. Congrats on the business.
For $60, that's a hard pass.
70-90 for a plate? Ha Aha
