No need to buy a winch for each vehicle or trailer, this portable DC-powered unit mounts to any hitch or flat surface to haul in that boat, vehicle, trailer, and more! The winch can be temporary or permanently mounted to either a ball-mount hitch or a flat surface. A parallel-shaft gear ensures efficient power for rolling wheeled trailers and vehicles up to 6,000 pounds, pulling things up to 5,000 pounds through water, or dragging items up to 2,000 pounds. The winch shuts down automatically if overloaded. And, a toggle remote control lets you control the action from a distance. The winch is equipped with a 20-foot cable that reaches easily from the front of any truck back to a standard trailer--a nice feature for towing the boat in snug up against the trailer. --Brian D.

The future, it seems, is not all that Hollywood promised.
Advancements are being made on the robot housekeeper front, however. Hot on the heels of the robotic vacuum cleaner comes another handy item - a robotic lawnmower. Yes, why hire a mowing service when you can employ a robot to do your bidding in an entirely novel and geeky manner?
Husqvarna has actually produced robotic grass-eaters since 1995 and the Automower 305 is part of its third generation. This model is designed for small backyards, as it only mows up to 500sq m of lawn. Mercifully, this also makes it small enough to carry around at just 7kg.
Sitting back and watching a robot complete your gardening chores certainly seems like a dream, but the reality is far more involved ... at least initially.
You cannot simply drop this device - resembling a remote-control car - on your lawn and sit back. It requires plenty of preparation and a thorough read of the manual.
Robot mowers, you see, must have a power source - that's why you must install a charging station. The station is a grey plastic platform with workings encased at its rear that connect to the Automower's battery.
SourceGas powered mowers are ideal for large lawns, but they release pollutants into the atmosphere. For a greener gas mower choose the Craftsman 22-inch front-wheel lawn mower with the Eco Plus technology engine. These mowers emit 38 per cent less exhaust and more »

“It saves mowing time and reduces our carbon imprint. It decreased the wear and tear on our equipment. It frees our mechanics up and frees up our mowers to do other projects,” Gordon said. In 2008, she added, the SJTA spent 5223 hours cutting the grass and more »
Givens told the council he has seen improvement in the turf, especially on the front nine holes, but there are some areas where the water just doesn't reach, making overcoming winter kill harder. When they stopped at the equipment shop, Givens warned and more »
Time and again, Dr. Edwin Harris, a Loyola University Health System pediatric podiatrist, has treated children who have lost toes or the front parts of their feet in lawn mower accidents. Cases he's seen include a boy, riding on an adult's lap, and more »

They clip the grass like a scissors; rotary mowers tear the grass. In addition, for those who don't mulch-mow as they go, "reel blades do a better job of collecting the blades in a basket right in front of it. It looks a lot smoother and better.
