I am 62 and weigh 108 pounds. Do you think this is enough weight to use with relative ease?

I can't say for sure, but I would imagine it would be OK unless you have very hard/compact soil. The first cut may be a little tough, but then you can overlap the next one by, say 50% and go on. Also, to make it easier to remove the unwanted grass, I would make the cut as close to the pavement as possible (the grass growing on top of the pavement is usually very easy to remove - the trickiest thing has been when I want to clear a couple inches to put bark between the pavement and the grass)

It all depends on the soil you are trying to cut through. I love this tool. It has made edging a breeze for me. If you keep the blade sharp, you should be fine.

(Sheepishly), I have not used mine yet. But, I read in one of the reviews a suggestion, that in order to not bend the blade, to do it when the ground is damp/wet and easy to penetrate . With that in mind, I'm sure your weight would be sufficient to work as advertised. Have F-U-N !

Yeah should be no problem although I am only 200 lb. I think it would be ok.

I don't know if this will help but I am 170 lbs and it feels sturdy. On the other hand it flexes quite a bit if you stand on it at dead center. So im not too sure about the extra 50lbs.

I bought this for my 16 year old son who is about 200 lbs. he has not had a problem with it. I can't really say how it would be, but i am about 220 lbs. and it would hold me.

I'm about 145 pounds and I feel comfortable, but people up to 250 have been on it before and it bends quite a bit, I wouldn't want more than 200 points on it in my opinion.

I am 208 lbs and it is working great for me. I think it is pretty sturdy and should work for you too. Because it feels like there is still some give when I am on it. I hope this helps you.

Hmm. Good question. I weigh 178 so no problems and my friend who is 200 uses it all the time. My very rough guess is that if you weighed north of 230 I'd try one first.

That doesn't seem right. But I can't be sure without weighing it. I will say I put it together with no difficulty, and pick it up and move it easily. It doesn't seem heavy. I am seventy with a bad arm, so I think it if I can pick it up and move it, most people can. It is sturdy though.

I think so. I'm 190 and it doesn't flex much under my weight. It feels pretty solid.

I have trouble going over 100. Dead on when it does weigh but if you're looking to weigh more than about that maybe consider something else

I am so sorry, I gave this as a gift so I cannot weigh it for you, but I can tell you that it is not heavy at all. It would be no problem for a young, middle-aged, or even an elderly person to be able to lift it. My mom is 90 years old and does not have any problem with lifting. Hope this helps!!...

Yes, it is. My weigth is 140 lbs aprox., and I feel it perfect. I don't know if it works the same with more weight. I think so. I like how you control the speed, it can be very soft and very hard too. I like it.

No way dies it weigh that much! I was able to carry mine and I am a woman over 60 years old.

It is not overly heavy. I can pick it up and move it by myself, when empty. I am a 63 year old not super strong female.

It is light enough, but beyond that I have no opinion. It was too light for me (78 years old) and stiff.

I'm 225 and lifted basic objects while on the stool. It is very sturdy with no side wiggle. I think you would be fine!

Yes, both my husband and I can use it and we are tall, 5'9" and 6'6". He weighs about 230 and we both enjoy it!
