Review: The EGO POWER+ 16” Chain Saw (CS1613 Kit)
For a long time, the advice in our shop was simple: if you need to cut firewood or large branches, you buy a gas saw. Early battery technology was great for light pruning, but it often struggled with the high-torque demands of property maintenance or professional applications. The landscape has changed significantly. With the addition of EGO POWER+ to our lineup, we are seeing equipment that holds its own against traditional 2-stroke engines. The EGO POWER+ 16” Chain Saw (CS1613) is built to compete directly with 40cc gas saws, which is the standard size for most residential and cottage work....

Essential Broil King BBQ Accessories for Grilling Season
Essential Broil King BBQ Accessories for Grilling Season Sunny evenings in front of the grill are here, which means our backyards are officially becoming second kitchens again.

Adding a few specific tools allows you to move beyond basic burgers and start handling larger cuts or specialized styles like stone-baked pizza and smash burgers. At Atlantic Outdoor, we stock gear that stands up to the high humidity and heat of summer (and the grill 😂) we see on the East Coast. We...

Review: The Cub Cadet 2X 28HD Snow Blower
When people start shopping for snow blowers, the first number they usually look at is the clearing width. It makes sense - a wider pass means fewer trips up and down the driveway. But in our experience, width isn't the only number that matters. The engine size is what determines how easily you’re going to clear that heavy, wet drift at the end of the driveway… or if you’ll slow to a crawl trying to carve your way through. This is where the Cub Cadet 2X 28HD really stands out. It pairs a manageable 28-inch frame with a massive 420cc...

The 2025 Holiday Gift Guide: Practical Gear for Every Outdoor Lover
Finding the right gift can be a headache, especially when you’re shopping for the type of person who already seems to have every tool in the shed. Whether you are shopping for a die-hard griller, a professional landscaper, or someone who just loves a quiet morning coffee on the deck, practical gifts are usually the ones that get used the most. We aren't interested in stocking cheap gag gifts that end up in the landfill by February. We look for products built for the winters we actually experience here in the Maritimes. To help you sort through the noise, we’ve...
