For lawn, you can sign up at scotts website, they will email you what to put down based on your zip code and grass type. (usually 6 to 7 times per season is enough)
Another mower I like for lazy people. http://www.husqvarna.com/us/products/robotic-mowers/automower-s Set to mow everyday, I set mine from 4 to 8 pm, skip on days when grass is very wet. Water every morning from 5 to 6am. (skip on days with at least 1 inch rain) Above are daily job for the growing season (just set it and forget it) Get a spreader for fertilizers and chemicals, sign up on scotts website ( they will email when to put down what based on your zip code and grass type) Follow instructions, too much fertilizers and chemicals can burn the grass. Below you only need to do a few times per season (once might be enough) All equipment can be rent for half a day if your lawn is not very big. Scarifying/dethatching and sweeping/raking (to remove dead grass, leaves, and other debris, and to prevent tufting) Rolling, (to encourage tillering (branching of grass plants) and to level the ground) Top dressing with sand, soil or other material (this is based on your grass type and soil condition) Aeration with plug/core aerator (to relieve compaction of the soil and allow greater absorption of nutrients), do not use a spike aerator (they not good) Over Seeding in the fall (water more frequent for the first 2 weeks) Last, you might want to do a soil analysis (depending on where you live, you can get the state university or their extension service to do it for you)
My understanding is they are the same thing. I call them pruning shears. They are strong enough to prune hard branches of trees and shrubs, sometimes up to two centimetres thick. There are three blade designs of pruning shears: anvil, bypass and parrot- beak. Anvil pruners have only one blade which closes onto a flat surface. They tend to crush the stem, but remain reliable when slightly blunt. Anvil shears are useful for cutting thick branches. Bypass shears usually work exactly like a pair of scissors, with two blades passing each other to make the cut. At least one of the blades will be curved: a convex upper blade with either a concave or straight lower one. Some bypass designs have only one blade, the lower jaw being broad (like an anvil) but passing the upper jaw. Parrot-beak shears consist of two concave passing blades, which trap the stem between them to make the cut. These are suitable only for narrower stems. Loppers are a larger, two-handed, long-handled version for branches thicker than pruning shears can cut.

I don't think the savings can meet the cost before it becomes broken ...
