Husqvarna Automower 315 Robotic Lawn Mower Review
I have a deep love of robots. From R2D2 to the Terminator, to the HAL 9000 of 2001: A Space Odyssey, I’ve always held a fascination for these programmable machines. Robots that can take on both personality and independent thinking for themselves are just plain cool…unless they rise up to take over. In any case, […]
Husqvarna 436LiB 36V Blower Review
Just as battery powered hand tools can run the gamut from entry level DIY to full-bore professional use tools, the world of outdoor power equipment is jockeying for position in a race to dominate the transition from gas powered products to battery powered solutions. While some will hem and haw about moving too quickly into […]
Husqvarna 536LiL 36V String Trimmer Review
Having just returned from the Husqvarna Silent City Media Event, we wanted to wrap up our evaluation of the Husqvarna 536LiL 36V string trimmer and see what this battery powered tool could do. There was the question of whether it could hold its own (or ever outperform) comparable gas models, and we wanted to know just how well it compared to other […]
Husqvarna RAMUS Concept Hedge Trimmer
There’s a famous quote that goes something like this: The world doesn’t want a product that’s 15 years ahead of its time; the world wants a product that’s 15 minutes ahead of its time. When the new Husqvarna RAMUS Design Concept hedge trimmer was unveiled in Antwerp, Belgium last week, we saw something new—something unknown. Is […]
Husqvarna 36V Hedge Trimmer Review (536LiHD60X)
I remember trimming hedges at my Mom’s house. While I love my Mama, there was definitely some mental preparation that had to be done ahead of Koehler Family Work Day. Dragging the extension cords all around the house and yard where it seemed like every possible foot of perimeter had something to trimmed was not […]
Husqvarna T535i XP 36V Chainsaw Review
Lithium-ion powered Outdoor Power Equipment (OPE) is taking off at a ridiculous pace. We had the first major push in the 40V lines become mainstream last year just in time for EGO to blow us away with their 56V lineup. This year, we see even more coming out with Worx adding a 58V platform, and […]
Husqvarna RZ54i 54 inch Zero Turn Lawnmower
Husqvarna has a long history that is rich in tradition. The first Husqvarna plant was established in 1689 as a weapons foundry. In the course of the centuries, Husqvarna has produced a large range of different products, including sewing machines, bicycles, motorcycles and kitchen equipment. When Electrolux acquired Husqvarna in 1978 the outdoor product range […]
Husqvarna M-ZT 52 Zero Turn Lawnmower Review
My experience with zero turn mowers and lawn equipment in general started over 15 years ago when I worked as the head of the service department for lawn & garden at Ag Pro, a local outdoor power equipment (OPE) dealer. Around 2003, while working for a local non-profit ministry, I started my own professional lawn […]
