Echo. Have had 0 problems with mine in 7 years.

 

I bought an Echo and I like it so far. Starts right up every time.

Echo x3

 

Echo all the way. If you are on the SW side of town Action Sales and Service are great people to deal with.

 

I have a shindawa, has been exceptional, lawn crew co. owner told me it was the only one that would hold up in a cemetery

I was kinda hoping that once I'm dead, I wouldn't have to use a trimmer anymore. It's getting really hard to get a break.

 

Buy an Echo but not from home depot...
University lawn mower off of the so. loop or , tunney's in pearland
all commercial model #'s

 

I have a Stihl fs80 that's been flawless.....

 

I have a 5 year old Troy-Bilt 25cc 2-Cycle 17-in Straight gas String Trimmer I paid around $124.

It's always started up on the first or second pull and has never had a problem.

Considering the price of Echoes and Stihls I'd say I made a pretty good deal. Heck this thing might last another 5 years or more.

Not bad for a $124.00, eh?

 

Echo, Echo, Echo

 

X2!! going on 11 years...start on second pull.

 

Komatsu RedMax: Going on 8 years, still starts on the 3rd pull every time. Replaced spark plug once. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

 

Gilbert....

 

cant be Gilbert will not take photos without his lawn mower!!! Go Gilbert

 

I have the echo 265t. It will trim anything you put out infront of it.
I'm probably going to get the 280t

Here is the new version of the one I have

It always starts on second pull just like the rest of my echo equipment.

 

i have a hand me down echo weed wacker, blower, and chainsaw. it was pass from my grandpa! I live by craftsman and echo here! also just fyi pick up a small bottle of fuel stablizer just had an issue with the mower, blower, chainsaw, and weedwacker. I tried changing up the fuel but it has to do something about the ethanol. but been using the fuel stablizer in all equipment and still have no problems just a tip i wanted to share and for anyone else that is experience some problems. a little maintenance here and there still good like new!

 

Echo...make sure that you get the newer string loading head...MUCH improvement.

 

Echo. Love my 265T. First pull primes it, second pull starts it. Nothing gets in its way.

 

Echo hands down. Order from Wisesales.com and save some money/tax plus it's shipped to your front door. We've purchased several Honda Generators, a mower and a Echo trimmer from them over the years and are 100% satisfied. Check them out @

Just look close at the next landscape trailer and see what they have, almost always Echo.

 

My Echo has been bullet proof.
But .... I honestly expected that your Stihl would be.

 

Every tool I own is of, what I think to be, the highest quality.

After 30 years of marriage, nothing I own has been able to withstand the treatment from my wife.

 

Kinda surprising to hear about that unless you totally abuse it. What's the issue with them?

I have my dad's 25 year old Echo that I use. I rebuilt the carb last year and it runs great. Its pre-primer bulb and a little harder to start than newer ones, but still works and the price was right.

 

I wonder if Stihl is making a sub-par line for the big box stores like many use-to-be quality brands are doing these days...
