Product Information

It costs upper end money and whilst it doesn’t have reviews, its specifications meant we had to try it out and see how it performs. The issue is I will only use weedkillers in more commercial settings or driveways and patios that are overrun with weeds and not domestic gardens if I can help it. It does a grand job but it’s actually got less power too, and also requires a fair bit of cool down, so it can be a bit of an annoyance to use because of this. A further advantage besides the ecological one is the economic one: costs are strictly related to gas consumption, and there are no additional costs for the disposal of toxic residues, as is the case with chemical herbicides. There is no denying that weed burners are far more environmentally friendly than harsh chemicals that could affect pets, children and watercourses etc.

I personally didn’t find any issues with it, maybe aside from the fact it’s a tad heavy, but this is reassuring when it comes to power tools as it usually means there is more power and reliability to it, especially with heated tools. Enter the electric weed burner, which feels a little safer to use than a standard heavy duty weed burner.

It doesn’t have variable speed settings but this isn’t the end of the world, especially since it works pretty damn quickly. It gets the job done and for something that generates such a high amount of heat in such a short space of time, is a steal. Before you go torching your weeds down, here are a few things to need to consider when looking for the best electric or gas weed burner. The reason for this is because the electric weed killer needs to generate plenty of heat in quite a short time, with most products going up to 600° minimum, and so cordless just doesn’t quite cut it.

Anyway, now you know why electric weed killers are a godsend, it’s time we told you about our favourites that are currently on the market. Well, I also use it to light my fire pit and even light my stove sometimes and for this, I don’t attach the extension handle. The 2-in-1 light/burn feature is perfect for all lengths of weed in your garden, and it feels robust enough for us to believe it will last a while. I’ve a large garden and it’s totally overrun with nettles and I’ve tried killing them off in all kinds of ways but they just regrow.Hereby the heat from the combustion is fully utilised for weed control, which results in high efficiency. Its lowest setting is 60°C (for cooling) while its highest setting is 650°C, which is on par with all the electric weed burners in this review. It also took a bit longer to warm up, but in reality these three aspects were much of an issue, as it still did a solid job at burning down both a patch and a few loose weeds in the garden. All in all, this weed burner is a fantastic choice if you’ve got larger, stubborn weeds that require more than a quick once over with a lighter duty burner. While this burner can be used for a range of tasks thanks to the high output, there’s no additional nozzles included that would make it more versatile.

For more domestic use in small patches, perhaps on your driveway or paths and you just want to keep on top of the weeds easily, the ToolTronix 2000W Electric Weed Burneris a good alternative and a safer way to burn weeds – BUT much much slower. Protecting our waterways, dams and drinking water from chemical run off is paramount for protecting our planet and it can start at home. However, I quickly worked out the ‘knack’, and my tip is to press harder than you think whilst gently twisting at the same time. They also produce garden composters, sprayers and weed control devices, including this electric weeder and a separate gas version. For long, fatigue-free use, the burner is also very light due to its aluminum anodized lance and additionally equipped with piezo ignition.He previously worked as a project manager and has experience in managing teams of tradespeople and landscape gardeners on both small and medium sized projects. Weed burners are hot enough to kill weeds after only 5 seconds, but the weeds won’t degrade instantly, and if you spend 30 seconds on each weed, the heating element of the burner will fail, or you’ll get frustrated and give up or you’ll leave a trail of scorch marks across your garden! Propane gas worries me a little and I don’t like using it, but that’s just a personal preference of mine. This could be professional gardeners (like me) or those with large driveways and patios at home or just a large section of ground to clear.
