Gas edgers are for long frontage, edges that have grown over and professional crews who edge all day. A stick edger is light enough to carry around beds and trees. A walk-behind edger rolls along the sidewalk on wheels, so its larger engine never sits on your arms, and many can tilt the blade for a beveled bed edge. Most 2-stroke models need oil mixed with the fuel; 4-stroke walk-behinds run on straight gas.
