Husqvarna Trimmer

I dont own one nor know anyone that owns one. However, I can tell you this. For a homeowner, that will be 100% fine for what you need. Lowes carries Husq and HD carries Echo. Both will last many many years and suit a homeowner just fine.

If you have 30+ yards and 3 crews running them, well, Redmax.

I have owned that exact model for 2 years now zero complaints and starts as it should.

Same. No complaints.

Good solid units, buy the set of carb adjustment tools below because 99% of them come out of the box lean and need more fuel to run perfectly.

Carb Adjustment Tool

I have this exact model and have had zero issues out of it. You can't go wrong with either brands.

Id get a stihl.

Had one for 6-7 years without a single problem. A nagger stole it out of my truck at my office at 3pm on a Tuesday about 8 months ago (seen him on the adjacent buildings security system). Got a new one, and it's been shitty ever since. Just exchanged it at Lowe's yesterday for another new one.

I got an echo couple yrs back it’s the pas 225 that you can put different attachments on. I use Trufuel and no complaints.

I have one...wish I would have bought a Stihl

Had it for about 5 years. No problems, it starts and runs like a champ.

It will last as long as you follow the maintenance schedule in owner's manual. Don't toss it ... read it and follow it religiously.

Should only have to change the plastic prime bulb at or around year 4. Then when you're buying the bulb, buy a new head for it since your string prob won't be coming out as good as it used to bc the plastic sprocket teeth are getting worn.

Those engines do not tolerate bad gas (water or trash) which is 99% of all problems.

Happy trimming
