Skil 40V Snow Shovel PSS1200C Review

That said, you do have areas like porches, patios, and partially covered walkways, where the accumulation may not be as deep. In these cases, a solution that’s a little less intense than a full-sized blower, […]

Cordless outdoor power equipment is bigger than ever. Indeed, widespread adoption will only continue as more states and municipalities limit or entirely eliminate gas tools.

Skil 12-Inch Battery Chainsaw | PWRCore 20 Brushless
As I write this, it’s hard to believe we’ve been using battery-powered chainsaws for more than a decade already. In that time, they’ve become primary tools for many folks with higher power levels and 18-inch bars now commonplace. With that kind of performance available, we wanted to see if there’s still a place for smaller […]
