Case in point:
You have 4 acres of lawn. "I'm just a homeowner". In our
mind, a normal homeowner has up to 1, maybe 1.5 acres. But once
you get past that you need to sit back and ask yourself two
questions:
- How long do I want to keep this piece of equipment?
- How long do I want this task to take?
Some economical equipment may give you a positive initial
impression, but if the unit is too small or light-duty for the
job, it makes the job take way too long. You'll get blisters on
your blisters!
Plus, you wear out the
equipment prematurely. Then you have to go and spend the money
that you should have in the first place. (The definition of
insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting to get
a different result
)
Remember the old saying:
"The right tool for the right job."
