Cordless String Trimmers and Edgers for Lawn Borders

A rotating head or dedicated edging mode can turn a string trimmer into an edging tool. Check the conversion method, balance and battery kit before buying.

A cordless string trimmer/edger combines grass trimming with a way to cut a crisp border along paths and beds. Some models rotate the cutting head; others use a dedicated edge mode or attachment. Greenworks ST24B217, for example, is listed with a 12-inch path and a 90-degree rotating head, while BLACK+DECKER LSTE522 is sold as an EASYFEED trimmer and edger kit.

Common questions

Questions before you buy

How does a cordless string trimmer switch to edging?

The method varies. Some heads pivot or rotate, while other tools use a separate mode or accessory; check the exact model instructions.

Can a string trimmer make a clean lawn edge?

It can tidy grass along borders when guided carefully, but the result depends on the head design, operator control and edge condition. Follow the manual around paving and obstacles.

Does the Greenworks 24V trimmer/edger include its battery?

The Greenworks ST24B217 product page lists a 2.0 Ah battery and charger in the bundle. Confirm the package variant on the listing you select.

Should I buy a trimmer and edger combo or separate tools?

A combo saves storage and covers occasional edging. Separate tools can make sense if you edge large areas often or want dedicated equipment for each task.
