Weed Wackers

Yep..I was wonder what brand of weed wacker do you use?..I have an old one that's just about to give out..I believe that it is an "Echo"..It uses the orange line for the spool and is a 2 stroke. So what make and model do you have that has taken a lot of use?. What would you recommend for the long haul?

Redmax is what I have settled on in my lawn business.

A Black & Decker rechargeable is great for light home yard use.

Yep..Is your redmax used daily in the growing season?

I've had a Stihl for years and like it very much. Run it dry when I put it away for the winter. Fill it with fresh gas in the spring. Pull the rope and it starts.

Another vote for Redmax. I won one 10 years ago, runs as good today as the day I brought it home.

Stihl never any problems

Stihl!

Yep..The light home use is not really an option for me..In the growing season I swear the weeds can grow an inch a day so I'm cutting of 4-5 inches every 5-7 days

Stihl with a straight shaft. Your option on heads is greater.

X2 on the above chose mine is getting 20 years now
10 hours a week use

Mine has been used on 3 half acre lots for the last 8 years every week and now is handling 4.5 acres we just bought this summer. Not light house work, but not commercial use either.

Yep..I burn 91 octane and no ethanol..

Worx, battery one

Stihl. Mine was neglected before I got it and it still runs.

Stihl. Mine is 14 yrs old and still going strong.

Stihl, No ethanol gas.

I got a Ryobi 4 stroke, I like the multiple attachments. Edger, hedge trimmer, pole saw

I bought a Husqvarna 4 stroke a few years ago and love it. No messing with oil/gas mix, plenty of power, pretty quiet, starts easy, string feeder actually works. I now use only 100% gas but when I used ethanol running it dry at the end of season was the ticket.

Stihl

131R Stihl for 2 stroke is what I run. I like my wheeled string trimmer 375 Husqavarna 4 stroke.

I roll with Stihl.

Stihl , best iv ever owned

Our trimmers trim 25-30 yards a day around 30-35 weeks a year. Us OPTI mix oil with non ethanol gas, usually needs a tune up every 10-15,000 yards.

Stihl

I would guess stihl are by far the most popular because they are sold every where.

Stihl

Yep..What horsepower on a "Redmax?"..I see they are up to 1 1/2 HP..for the string trimmers.

Run the 260ts

I run a 4 stroke Dolmar.I've tried all the rest, only one for me.

I have the original old "Weedeater" brand. Not commercially, and I avoid weedeating as much as possible, but it's lasted years.

I sprayed Round up around all the places the rider couldn't get to and sold the trimmer.

Jonsered here and it works great.

I have an Echo, good trimmer. I had some carb. issues, wouldn't run right. Bought a new carb. with fuel lines from Amazon for $16.00 runs like new again.

My wife has a nice Stihl and a lighter weight Black and Decker - I touch neither and wait for frost to get it every year if she misses some weeds. I only chop my yard weeds down when they get about a foot tall a couple times a year. If I could, I'd graze all the way around the house. Mowing and weed whipping is a waste of time.

I have a stihl. 17yrs old this year.

Still for Sure!!!

Stihl Kombi. Gives me a lot of options. Best purchase I could have made when I needed a new trimmer.

Stihl. Dependable.

Avoid bent shafts. Those are mostly smaller and wear out quickly. Stihl and Echo are good models. If you use a blade, be very cafeful not to hit your toe, but if you do, it will still be in your shoe when the doctor removes you blood soaked shoe. Happened to a friend.
