Power tools can sell for a decent price, which has opened up the doors to cheap and fake tools coming onto the market to maximise profit. The issues we have with such tools are that they may not provide the power needed to complete the job given. Also, many of them are made with flimsy materials that could fall apart easily with the vibrations of usage. The best-case scenario is that the tool will stop working, but in the worst case, they can explode, burst into flame or shatter over the user.

The seams can be folded over slightly and secured to the ground with pegs to avoid further fraying. Initially, by installing any landscape fabric, there is going to be a period of time where you will have fewer unwanted weeds – this is guaranteed, no matter which weed barrier you choose.
