These Power Rotary Scissors Will Transform Your Lawn! Game Changing!

[@bobbg9041]

When I was a little boy 60 years ago well 57 years ago with an old time reel mower on bluegrass we used sheep shears to edge the grass. Yep you crawled along the grass on your hands and knees and used sheep shears. String trimmers were a game changer.

[@thajavaman]

I like it that you are a firm believer of real scissor like mowing! I myself am a believer of wearing shoes while I do all kinds of mowing!

Great add on tool for sure. Been watching it on Amazon for 2 months. Priced for $245 originally and now it's all over with price north of that. I believe they know all the lawn youtubers are talking about it a lot lately. Really like it but a bit over priced. Thanks for the good review.

[@DavidKnowles]

I have this. Used it for a whole season. I fitted to a RYOBI RY36ELTX33A-140 36V Brushless. It works well. However I do have a small issue where the bottom blade seems to push some of the grass blades out of the way -flattening them- before they can be cut. I live in Europe and have cold season grasses that are much more delicate, are not as firm and and don't spring back to be cut like warm season grasses i assume will. I've looked after the blades well, oiling and cleaning them after every use, so I don't think it's bluntness. It's one season of only cutting grass - nothing else. Something to think about if you are in the a similar position.

[@BermudaBrian]

1. Lawn is looking great! 2. Thanks for video... I was on fence about getting one ... I've got kind of the same edge as you.... Wouldn't be a good fit for me.

[@sparkypdx]

I saw one of these at the Stihl dealer just the other day but at $400 thought i better check more into it. This unit is a lot less and work great... thanks for the video and your lawn looks great

[@jjwhitedog]

Got mine today. Put it on a new srm 230. I replaced a screw with a zerk. This was a godsend for rural ditches. I'd skip any 1/2" or larger sticks. It will chew through, but time is money. Didnt mark up my foundation, wooden fences. Only downfall is the cut grass falls in place meaning mower or blower guy will be a bit busier.

Rotary scissors compatible w the Dewalt 60v attachment capable weed whacker

[@michaelstutts7453]

Does it damage the bark on trees like a string trimmer will. Edging sidewalks, putting in into the ground, dirt, etc. Any blade problems. Do they need to be constantly resharpened. Could you do small jobs on hedges? It’s basically a round hedge trimmer. What is cutting width. Will small woody underbrush be better cut with rotary blade. Good video! It’s time someone designed a weed trimmer designed to be attached to a riding mower. Maybe electric or battery powered.

[@williaml5471]

Such a clean cut!!

[@reellowbermuda8786]

Indeed!

[@HDMIOT]

yesterday i was wondering about the environmental impact of the plastics used in the weed whacker string, today i see this. with some inprovements these and battery powered tools should become standard regulation.

[@reellowbermuda8786]

I know many people that use this with a battery operated motor. I will switch to battery everything one day

[@ringsidejudge4302]

I was contemplating buying one , but like yourself , I was not sure how it would perform right against a rough brick wall where the grass grows tall and where the mower will not go in . Could you do a demo where you connect with a vertical surface . My first thoughts are that the tool could be ruined . Would it be possible to add on a lower roller wheel to assist in an even height of cut . If a protruding distance guide could be fitted to keep this tool parallel to vertical surfaces it would mean you could , indeed go in. Your garden looks to have had a lot of TLC. Really neat and tidy . I cut at about two inches in Ireland .

[@alceja3522]

Would this fit on a Ryobi 40v trimmer?

[@jameyhaz]

ok, this might be a dumb question, but in a sealed enclosure, why do you have to keep adding grease?

[@KyleSchwanz]

I think you cat actually edge with the rotary scissors as well. They show it in the advertisements and I’ve seen others do it with great success. If that’s true I’ll grab one. If I would have to switch back and forth I’ll just stick to my line trimmer. Really want one of those though.

[@reellowbermuda8786]

You can edge with it, you just cant dig down into the dirt with it. I like a deep and wide edge. Not sure that is possible with only the rotary scissors.

[@KyleSchwanz]

Reel Low Bermuda I watched a video with another fellow Bermuda farmer that was cutting about an inch or two into the soil. He said it does it with no problem, but I would be a little concerned about it dulling the blades fairly quick 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@reellowbermuda8786]

Correct! Any sand and soil on the blades will dull them right away.

Great video, I live out in Coachella and the only thing that survives our summer heat is bermuda, We have a large kidney shaped front lawn, how do you keep the grass edges tight and the bermuda ryzomes from spreading underground into planters?

I use a string trimmer to create deep edges. That helps with appearance and with keeping runners out.

Great review, choked when I saw price ;) I am having same issue with common Bermuda mixed in my hybrid! I’m keeping it cut as low as possible to see if hybrid won’t get a head start and so far seems to be working! Seems like yuh are taking same approach but I can’t get my mower down to 6/10” ;)

[@reellowbermuda8786]

Yep, pretty expensive

[@darrtoo5767]

Hey guys, 1st time watcher from Australia. I think the only method to successfully eradicate the common from the hybrid would be to carefully paint roundup onto the foliage of the common. Yes it is slow & painful but it is do-able & realistically those patches would only take 1/2hr so certainly not the end of the world. Anyway, loved the vid, now to watch more!

[@ryanhizon9546]

appreciate the video. what type of grease did you use ?

[@reellowbermuda8786]

Super Lube EP-O Grease

[@btrook1981]

I’m curious how you’ll feel long term... I also have the echo 225 and my landscape blade takes a few minutes to build up to speed, surges like crazy and will stall out and die after extended use. At first I thought it just needed more grease or needed to get broken in but the problem got worse not better. I decided to switch to the ego power heads.... I know of one other person using a 225 with same issue so I’m curious what you’ll think after a month or two

[@reellowbermuda8786]

I hope it does the job! I will post an update at some point.

@@btrook1981 So it only has a problem with the scissor cutter?

[@chadfoulger]

Unrelated, but what do you do for the dog urine spots? I've been really struggling with them and most tips are for grasses where seed can be put down to fix the patches. I'm hoping to prevent them to avoid the time for the Bermuda to fill back in.

[@reellowbermuda8786]

I haven't had much luck preventing them. My best attempt is spraying water on the spot right after if I notice it.

[@Boodieman72]

Where can I get this from, other than Amazon. You don't need a string trimmer if you get an edger that uses a blade.

[@Iabeerbrewer]

Would love one! Just can’t justify the cost🤷‍♂️

[@reellowbermuda8786]

Same here! I waited for almost 2 years. But now I seriously think it’s worth it!

[@brians.1247]

I would say that you can justify the cost with each use, because with this scissor trimming head you won't have to worry about the damage that a string trimmer can do ..also if your neighbors are like mine they appreciate a well manicured lawn and the nice comments will just flow in..even though this product won't completely stop the need for your string trimmer ..it does make it easier to cut in close to stairs ,rock walls, fencing and other such obstacles without catching a string on them and doing damage ..

[@bryanfelver6125]

It’s extremely fast! This was my first time using it and I was being extra slow and careful. You could literally move as fast as you wanted and I think it would get the job done. The key is in the quality of cut and precision. The more familiar I get with it, the quicker I can be.

It's people that have no industry experience, no trades experience, and can't really do much along the lines of trades work, who do things like this. One of my dad's guys cut his fingers off with a hedge trimmer when I went to work with my dad when I was 7 years old. When I took over the corporation, I've seen so many catalysts injuries. I have 81 employees, and I've been through right around 350 employees since I took over. So many things happen that the DIYer never knows about.
