None for gardening and landscaping.

For fence building yes. A circular saw and a drill. For pavers you need a water cooled tile saw with a diamond blade but that is a borrow or rent item if you can. A wire tracer is nice. We rented one.

Lot of people saying battery powered stuff. I take opposite view. No battery stuff unless you need it. Problem they are more expensive and your always charging and replacing batteries. Just less sustainable. No gas stuff either same reason.

Thanks for responding! I guess I should have specified that I was asking for outdoor spaces/gardening…

I was looking at leaf mulchers and wondering if it was worth buying. Right now the only thing I need is a weed eater!

Yes. I am not sure I always notice the community too. Lot of the relies suggest that.

Mulcher, I have no experience. We take our leaves to the county site and let them take care of it. We did try to compost them for awhile but just too many.

Just an FYI, leaves are crucial for many beneficial insects to survive the winter.

If you would still like to mulch some, a mower will easily chop them up. Especially good if you have a bag attachment.

I don’t have a mower. I leave the leaves through spring and then begin composting them. I have more leaves than pile though.
