BLACK+DECKER Edger & Trencher, 2-in-1, 12-Amp (LE750)

The BLACK+DECKER LE750 2-in-1 Edger and Trencher is a corded electric yard tool designed to carve clean edges along sidewalks and dig landscape trenches. Powered by a 12-amp, 2-1/4 HP motor outputting 150 inch-pounds of torque, it helps homeowners tidy overgrown lawn borders without manual spade work.

Setting up the unit is fast thanks to tool-free assembly. In operation, an exclusive pull-up edge guide converts the tool between lawn edging and trenching tasks, while a three-position blade depth adjustment gives you control over how deep the blade cuts. Practical user features include a built-in cord retention system to keep your extension cord plugged in, an opening door on the blade guard for clearing out debris, and an assist handle that works for left or right handed operators.

As a corded electric power tool, your working area is limited by the length of your extension cord, and the listing does not include an extension cord. Additionally, the seller specifications do not state the exact blade diameter, unit weight, or overall dimensions.

Verdict: This versatile tool is a great choice for homeowners who want clean yard lines and trenching capability without dealing with gas engines. Its adjustable controls and dual functionality make it ideal for routine lawn maintenance and light landscaping projects.
