It would be great to have a list of links or store addresses for places that sell tools and garden equipment that work well for women. Let's see what we can put together.
I had hesitated to add a company name but given the request for a list, Here's my choice for all sorts of hand tools and garden tools that I think work for me and as I mentioned in another post, it seems they've thought of everything. Things are of good quality, easy to put together, easy to maintain and easy to use. The tools are on the lighter side and yet handle everything I've thrown at them, sometimes holding my breath that I might be exceeding the limit. The batteries have a long run time, charge quickly and are easy to remove, put back on, and put on the charger. Most tools can be purchased with or without a battery, there are a lot of tools that use the same voltage, plus you can decide ahead of time if you want to invest in the 24V/48V, 40V or 60V tools. There are frequent enough sales that you can get tool + battery of different tools for the price of the tool without the battery, and therefore have at least two of the same voltage on hand so one is charged and ready for the one in use to need to be charged, enter here again the quick charging time.
They also have plenty of house tools like vacuum cleaners. There's an added benefit of battery powered tools if you own a storage device and a solar charger you can work and recharge when the power goes out which as the weather has grown more unpredictable may be happening more often.
