Why We Love This Deal
The time has come to fight nature. Well, at least weeds and overbearing grass. After attacking your lawn with a lawn mower, you’re likely to return with a string trimmer and maybe even a small chainsaw for complete yard dominance. But you might want to consider this alternative to saws and string trimmers that Walmart is selling for just $40 right now.
The Catgood Weed Wacker Set is nearly 50% off right now. The robust kit, which includes multiple batteries, safety goggles, cutting blades, and other instruments, is a high-value machine at a much lower cost than you could get any of these things for separately. As a bonus, this kit ships free.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Size: Up to 51 inches long, depending on adjustments.
- Powered By: Batteries (included)
- Blades Included: Plastic x 5, steel x 4, circular saw disc x 4
- Additional Accessories: Wheels, charger, blade guard, eye goggles
- Function: Light weeding, edging, and removal of small brush.
Functionally, this device is for light weeding, use as an edger, and for shaping small brush. The kit includes plastic, steel, and saw blades for grass, pruning, and small branches, respectively. There’s also the ability to add wheels and a blade guard to the bottom to convert this into a cross between a lawn mower and a string trimmer (no string included). Finally, the kit includes batteries, a charger, and even safety goggles.
One upside of this kit is that it has a surprisingly great battery life. Powerful string trimmers and leaf blowers can die in minutes when used, but the Catgood Weed Wacker is rather judicious with its power usage, and each of the two batteries can last 45 minutes on a full charge. That’s an hour and a half of usage if you start with two batteries, not even accounting for charging one battery while the other is being used.

What Shoppers Are Saying
This set is not for everyone, and if you expect a tree-crushing slice out of the saw discs, you’ll be sorely disappointed. Those who bought it with the right expectations in mind, however, found that it gets the job done satisfactorily.
What is it capable of? One shopper advised, “It's powerful, convenient, and incredibly easy to use. If you're looking for a reliable, hassle-free alternative to gas-powered or corded models, this is a top-tier choice that delivers excellent results.”
Another shopper confirmed that the device is quite powerful, saying that the “saw option took out bamboo.”
The Catgood Weed Wacker Set is down to just $40 while this deal lasts.
