Do you have yard work you have to tackle this weekend? It is an unpleasant chore (personally speaking of course) but it is a necessary task in order to keep your yard looking fresh, well kept, and pest free. Having the right outdoor power equipment and tools on hand makes clean up much easier, less time consuming, and honestly provide an overall better workflow and experience. So, are you ready to take your lawn & garden game to the next level!?

Investing in long lasting outdoor power equipment at a fair price is important, but you'll see a lot of options in the market. Variety is always a good thing, but you'll want to narrow down the purchase based on what is important to you. Most popular power tool brands have an OPE catalog but what’s worth buying into? I’m here to help you figure that out. Today, let us take a glance at three major manufactures that are known for developing quality products and compare them side-by-side. Let’s get started!

BLOWERS

HEDGE TRIMMER

LAWN MOWERS

STRING TRIMMERS

CHAINSAWS

These five outdoor power tools are the most common gear to own, and the beginning foundation of your outdoor power equipment arsenal. It’s really all you need to get started to maintain any lawn and keep your garden looking clean and well groomed! Luckily we have DeWALT, Makita, and Milwaukee helping us out by getting this task done efficiently and with ease. You really cannot go wrong with any brand! These three power tool giants are only concerned on producing quality equipment. With that being said, let’s not forget about why we’re here. We still need to answer the number one question: What route should you take during your purchase?

If you’re already devoted to an ecosystem of batteries and chargers, most consumers would stay with that specific brand or manufacturer, and there is nothing wrong with that as you don’t need to buy extra power gear. If you are coming into this segment brand new or considering branching out into other alternatives, consider buying Makita! They have an enormous selection of Grade A outdoor power equipment. I can't say the same for the others. In fact, Milwaukee doesn't even offer a lawn mower in their catalog. DeWalt has more options when compared with Milwaukee, but still not the range that Makita offers. Makita goes as far as offering gas and corded solutions. Its clear to me Makita puts a little more R&D for the OPE community and it’s much appreciated.
