Here are my favorite brush cutters of all time. I've personally used all the options in this article and so can help you with what to look for when getting a brush cutter of your own.

If you're wondering which brush cutter you should buy, there are many factors to consider. However, if there's one question that you should always ask first, it's this: what type of brush do you want to cut? The ripper will be different from a gator tooth.

If you are cutting small saplings or thick grasses, you'll be cutting different lengths. Similarly, if you're only cutting deadfall, you will need something different.
Be realistic about what you plan to use your brush cutter for and you'll be off to a great start. Don't let the price tag discourage you either; You often get what you pay for. Always consider your needs before blowing your budget on the latest and greatest model.
