FAQs
What should I look for when buying an Outdoor Power Tool?

As well as all the outdoor tools you’d expect, such as Chainsaws, Lawnmowers and Strimmers, ToolStore UK also has a wide range of other outdoor tools to cover all kinds of tasks. From Pole Saws to Grass Shears, our range of power tools covers most garden tasks.

If considering a battery powered machine, such as Grass Shears, you might think about whether you need a tool which is supplied with a battery or whether you might save money by choosing a Body Only machine and pairing it with the batteries you already have.

However, if you’re choosing a corded tool, you’ll need to make sure you choose the right kind of machine for the power available, 110v and 240v.

Which is better: brushless or brushed tools?

Brushed motors use carbon brushes to transfer power from the fixed part of the motor to the rotor. This creates a reliable and relatively inexpensive motor, but brushed motors do require regular maintenance, in order to either clean the brushes or replace them as they wear out. A brushless motor, by contrast, uses a magnet mounted on the rotor to generate the power and electrical switching to perform the function carried out by the brushes. The additional complexity of the motor’s working means that brushless motors are usually more expensive than brushed.

However, eliminating the brushes also eliminates internal friction and maintenance, meaning that brushless motors offer both increased power and a longer working life. Brushless motors also generate less heat and noise and so, on balance, are considered superior to brushed motors.
