Ryobi Power and Lawn Tools
This is a collection of the exact Ryobi tools I use to maintain my yard in Florida.
Lightweight but completely gets the job done. It makes edging the driveway and cleaning up around the fences a breeze, and I never have to fight with a pull-cord again.
RYOBI ONE+ 18V 13 in. Cordless Battery Walk Behind Push Lawn Mower (Tool Only) P1108BTL
Perfect for quick cleanups after mowing or clearing off the driveway. Grabbing a battery and just pulling the trigger is infinitely better than dragging out a 50-foot extension cord.

Lightweight but completely gets the job done. It makes edging the driveway and cleaning up around the fences a breeze, and I never have to fight with a pull-cord again."
