Best weed eater/trimmer

About 10 years ago I bought a commercial grade stihl. Aside from some carb kits through out the years its been bulletproof

If you want a more powerful model, Stihl. Just about any of the FS90+ models will be good for what you’re doing.

If you want a very good, high end residential, Echo-225.

Stihl and Echo are the only two brands that have never given me trouble with anything I've purchased from them.

My 90 stihl is a dam work horse. 10+ years of usage with just 1 service.

I have the echo pas 225 and personally if you want “high end” I’d get more CC’s then 21CC’s. I’d look hard at the Stihl Kombi with the 28 or 30 cc motor. Reason I say those is it’s great to throw on the brush cutter easily a handful of times a year. I also have the blower, if I had one more powerful I’d get a trimmer/ saw and some other stuff.

Either way I’d get a 25+CC for 2 acres. 21 is enough you just have to full throttle the entire time for thicker grass.

Have had an ECHO PAS model for 8 years and I am not gentle with it. Primary use is weed eating, edger and extension pole saw. Also, primarily use ethanol gas in it. Change spark plug and clean air filter are the only maintenance items done over this time. Zero carb issues
This thing has been the tits

On the rec of this board (outdoor board at the time) I bought an echo and Tru fuel about 4 years ago now. I've put it through hell and have had 0 issues with it. Starts every time.

STIHL USA


The best.
