The #1 BEST Trimmer, Blower & Edger For Lawn Pros
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- A lot of folks always ask me, Brian if you were going to buy a hedge trimmer, leaf blower, string trimmer, or hedge trimmer, which one would you buy? We've used almost everything over the last 15 years, and for me personally, these are the best hand tools for our 2021 lawn care setup and beyond.
I'm not overly "brand loyal" as much as I'm concerned about finding the right tool for the job. That could come from Redmax, ECHO, STIHL or anyone else! The bottom line, everyone makes great products, and you can't REALLY go wrong. The point of this video is to help share some suggestions that if it was "my money" (which it often is), what would I pick TODAY.
You guys know my favorite go to trimmer, backpack blower, edger and hedge trimmer, but what about for you? Love to hear what you guys use as your go to hand tools down in the comments below!

![BUYING GUIDE! ► BEST TRIMMER ► LEAF BLOWER ► LAWN EDGER [STIHL, REDMAX, ECHO]](/img/1.gif)
I use STIHL for just about everything! If you take care of your equipment, it will take care of you 🤙
Teachers’s has used Echo for all power equipment purchased through local dealers since 1997. Trimmers, edgers, blowers, hedge clippers, and shred/vacs. We experimented with other brands as trials with friend’s equipment but we always stayed with Echo for performance, reliability and ease of repair.
Very true. I have a Stihl FS-250R that is twenty years old. Still running like a beast just like the day I bought it.
Shindaiwa! Been running the same ones for 8 years and have never let me down.
I sure do miss shindaiwa, echo isn’t the same. I want my trimmer to be red.
I have used the same Shindaiwa trimmer for 5 years now and it has worked flawlessly
I still have one that's easily 20+ years old and still in weekly service, no joke! I want to say it's a model T30, but I'd have to look.
Me and my dad run a lawn care business. We have all echo hand tools (trimmer, edger, blower) I am 15 years old and my dad bought them when I was born so they are about 15-16 years old. We have never had any problems until last season when the edger started acting up, we decided to wait until it dies before be get a new one. It lasted all last season and got us through the beginning of this season. Last week when I was mowing my yard it decided it didn’t want to work anymore. We have a 2620 waiting at the shop to pick up Monday😂. We bought a carb kit to hopefully keep the old one running as a backup. My point is echo last forever. Our trimmer and blower still run beautifully to this day.
Peace young Man. We have an Echo PAS style trimmer that's about 10 yrs old and still running. We had a regular Echo that was 15 yrs old and just died. Echo is a solid brand
Echo trimmers are the best for sure!
Was a huge stihl fan before they switched to 4 cycle. I.e loved the stihil for 95 pro series. Now it's Redmax for pure performance and torque especially in trimmers
Best trimmer: Stihl KM91R - puts an Echo 2620 and Redmax 260 to shame
Best blower: Echo 9010T - outblows a BR800 and 8550
Best edger: Stihl KM91R with the edger attachment - way more powerful than the comparable Echo and Redmax
Hedge trimmer- Stihl 82T for fine stuff and 82R for thick stuff
Chainsaw - ported Husqvarna 346XP for 28” wood and felling big trees
Favorite brand is Echo. Been buying them since I was 12. Been sold ever since. That 9010 has amazing power!
I bought an 8010 just before they announced the 9010. I feel a little jipped. But then again, I can still blow limestone around with the 8010 so I think I'm ok.
@@danquirke443 I had an 8010 and sold it used for $400 and picked up a 9010 from Arlington Power Equipment online for $559. Both great machines, but the 9010 is just a real piece of engineering.
Top of the line Echo for everything! 👌🏾😎
Yes sir man they are the best
Yessir that’s my choice too
I agree.
Best in the game
Echo PB-9010T for Me
Stihl everything 2 stroke, Toro/Hustler mowers. Pacific Northwest 🦅🌲🌲
Echo for the win💯💯 but for our blowers we use the pb8010 and for the trimmers we use the srm2620t💯💯
Redmax8550 , Stihl 800c
Echo 2620 and redmax 260TS.
Never have any issues. 💯
I personally run sthil for all my stuff, I honestly have never heard of redmax before up in north idaho but they look pretty cool
bruhhhhhh whatttttt!?!?! What do you mean.... you’ve never heard of redmax 😱😱😱😱 brooooo you’re missing out!!!!! I say this in the most kind and peaceful way.... honestly.... but do you literally live under a rock!!!!! Redmax is killer, standard, non negotiable,... again all of this in the kindest way possible!!!!!!! Get you a redmax it will literally bless you bruh!!!
Husqvarna is the parent company of redmax.
@@smrrecordspodcast haha yeah I Dont even think I have seen a single lawn care crew out here running them idk maybe ill find a dealer and check them out see what they have to offer
I feel the echo short shaft hedge trimmer is more balanced, I can run it longer with less fatigue. But still need the typical vertical shaft hedge trimmer for tight places. 8010 blower is great, recently picked up a 910 maryuama, still in the box. Weed eaters I carry 4 echos, a 3020t with .105" line, 2620t with
095" line, a srm 225 with .095" line and for everyday trimming a srm 225 with .080" line. All have the gorilla bar on them. Each weed eater has a specific purpose. I will be upgrading the two small ones for the newer 2320, less slober from the exhaust.
@@smrrecordspodcast yo foreal. Redmax makes great and reliable blowers. Their blowers is the only redmax equipment my company uses but we also have echo blowers. Needless to say The Echo blowers had to get tooken to fix and what not multiple times.. while the redmax did its thing
My Stihl blower needs carb adjustments during the change of the seasons. My Echo PAS with string trimmer has enough power to cut dirt while edging walks and drives. Never serviced in 8 years with residential use. Starts on 6 month old gas every spring.
Echo 8010 is a beast. Haven't run a 9010. I abuse the heck out of my echo weed eater. Literally leave it sit with fuel all winter for 7 or 8 years. Never even pulled the plug. Always fires right up and runs great. No, I don't neglect all my equipment. The trimmer is just an afterthought that always gets ignored.
Brian awesome job on letting us know what equipment you rock. I love the echo equipment, but I've always said use what works the best for you. As long as you go with a good name brand and take care of it, it will take care of you.
I'm rocking the Husky BTs580 BPB, Husky 525L Trimmer, 522hdr 75s Hedge trimmer as well as the
525HE3 Hedge trimmer
(Newest addition to my fleet), 525ECS edger. I can't lie I am a pushover for Husky items I have used all the others but in my opinion Husky has them.
I'm rockin' all echo. Love it. None of it has let me down yet. Been using echo for years. I've used other brands and they all perform well bit i just prefer echo.
All of my 2 cycle stuff is echo machines. I also love the echo red armor oil.
Echo 8010s and 9010s. Echo srm 2320t and 2620t trimmers. Had great luck with all of my echos.
Ive got a few echo trimmers. An echo 2620. Pb8010. And stihl 400. Echo would be my go to.
Stihl BR600 to this day is my favorite go to blower!!
Just had my Husq. blower poop and looking for a replacement. Never used Red Max but don’t like the no right to repair stuff. Sour on Husq. The dealer here sucks. Updated opinion?
@@kevinorr6880 I’m just now seeing this reply from a year ago I’m sorry about that! Updated opinion for my go to blower is now the Redmax 7500 and the Echo PB770T! Yes there is the 8560 and the echo 9010 but they’re not good for everyday use because they’re heavy. Use what your local dealer has most of! The great thing now a days is that there is so many options on the market
@@Born2doom thank you. I did end up buying an Echo.
Stihl is my go to but liking echo . Great video
I run Echo and Honda. I have an echo string trimmer and blower that i have ran for the last 3 years. No issues at all. I have a Honda Honda hht25sltat String Trimer that is a 4 Cycle. Absolutely love it. Lots of power, quiet and lots of torque. No mix required.
The Shindaiwa trimmers are basically Echo's...in red with a 20" trimming swath vs the 17" on OG Echo...
... with a solid steel shaft and larger guard that doesn't throw stuff in your face.
I love use echo for everything I’ve been using them for a long time like 10 years
Brian, I'm like you. Except I run the Redmax EBZ7500RH backpack blower and the Echo SRM-2620 as well. Both are about 4/5 years old and the 2620 has definitely been ridden hard and put up wet. Still runs like a champ. I agree about the durability of Echo's 2 stroke engines. I've owned several Echo trimmers in years past and never have had an issue out of any one. Rock-solid durability all around. As for hedge trimmers, I would go with Echo as well. In fact, last year I ended up purchasing their SHC-225 shafted hedge trimmer. Oh boy, I tell you what the shaft is a game changer for me. My old Mantis hedge trimmer made trimming bushes a total chore. I was fighting it more than making it work for me. The SHC-225's added length makes it easy to trim and shape. Great balance! Again, powered by an Echo made 2 stroke engine. Nothing else needs to be said!
Stihl for Everything !👍
Yeah I personally run sthil for everything loving it so far, warranty support has been good so far
As a small engine mechanic and lawn care business owner, I 2nd your comment Mark 👍🏼
@@fillslawncare thats good to hear !!
Stihl makes good chainsaws hands down! But I give it to Echo for blowers and trimmers! That’s just me though
@@Born2doomcouldnt have said it any better 😊
I run all echo, I have 3 2620s, a small pb580 blower does great for me and hedge trimmers not sure of the model number but I love my echo products
Switched everything to stihl, 600series blower and combo unit trimmer with edger attachment, made switch from echo cause I can’t find anyone around here to work on echo or get there parts anymore,
I run all echo I have a Home Depot srm 225 trimmer that’s 15 years old and runs better than my new stuff
I bought an echo 3020 and I love it. Lots of power and torque.
Stihl for everything. But that's the only dealer in town. A big box store sells echo here, but I support my dealer.
That's km131 is a beast.
Respect for dealer support!
@@Henry.donath1 I support them cause they support me also. Even as a solo guy, they know me by name and they treat me well.
Redmax has made some stout blowers for at least 20 years, they really take a beating. Judging by all the BR600 short blocks, BR800 mufflers, fans and short blocks, PB8010 and PB9010 short blocks Ive done Im positive the Redmax EBZ8550/Husqvarna 580BTS blowers are the best built on the market right now. Shindaiwa were great also but the last one was the EB802. After that its just a red Echo, and their C4 engines were terrible. For what its worth Im running an EBZ7100 thats older than dirt I got all busted up after a landscaper beat it to death for ages. I patched it up and it still runs great and has plenty of power for my job.
Redmax backpack,exmark mowers, echo trimmers, 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My very 1st good weedeater was echo srm225 lasted me maybe 10 seasons. Tru champ! I started with troy built weedeaters because they were cheap after they didn't last me a season I went with the echo srm 225, light weight easy to maneuver I could weedeat all day! Bought a stihl fs91r for the thick over grown yards or establishing new edges that thing is a beast! I rolled like that for a few seasons. Untill old faithful srm225 went ou. Went and purchased the srm-2620T(toryqe) has different gearing in head to produce more torque. I thinknits a bluff doesn't cut any as good as the srm 225 did imo. But I dig it! Went to home depot and purchased another srm225 the trigger on the 2620 was just too stiff and tiring. The 225 gets hot and stops working I'm like wtf. Went and replaced it same one and same issue. Took it back and got a Stihl fs56 I love the trigger on it. Comes with speed head but it's a little weird getting used to the head shape. That's in my current setup.
You guys know my go to’s, what are yours?
Okay bro 👍
STIHL
Echo for sure. They are the BEST
Maruyama trimmers, Shindaiwa and husqvarna blowers this year
I am a homeowner, but I do 2 yards. This stuff just lasts forever. I picked up an Echo 2100-SB which is now their PAS system with an edger and trimmer in 2001. In 2004, I picked up a stihl BG85 blower. in 2011, I picked up a Stihl Kombi 130 with the trimmer, edger and Hedge Trimmer. In 2019 I picked up the Shindaiwa 262 (echo 2620). They all still last. My family borrows the Echo- SB for a couple of seasons at a time. I use good gas and good oil, maintain them. But they are never in the shop. The Shindaiwa 262 is my favorite trimmer. The Stihl 130 is too much power for a weekly trimmer. I know the entry level Echo trimmers aren't as good as what I have, but take care of your stuff and it will work for a long time.
Brian, try attaching the new Apple Air Tags to your equipment to help with lost equipment. Attachment holders are just coming to market.
Awesome idea.
Or the slighly more pricier milwaukee ones would work also
I can personally vouch for the Darwin grips I am 6 foot seven and I was having a terrible time with my back with the three or 4 yards of done with them so far they helped a lot. One of which was 1 hour and a half and my back is fine
We prefer Echo. Easy to maintain, reliable, and affordable. Try out the 2620T. As for the “kombi” system. The echo PAS 2620 units are great.
Red max back packs,, red max string trimmers, stihl hedge trimmers, stihl hand held blowers, ferris mowers
Hey Brian, I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS KEEP GOING AND KEEP HUSTLING!!!!
I watch your videos. Brians awesome too!
@@mannymoney9747 thanks dude! hell ya he is. he motivates me
Maruyama for me , been a Stihl for years but very happy with my Maruyama , runs great , lots of power .
I m sure a lot of people noticed when brian pointed out the weird motion rob makes at 4:41 in the video with the darwins grip, just thought that was funny
My trimmer, small chain saw, and blowers are Echo's. My big saws and combi tree trimmer are Stihl.
My walk behind blower is a Little Wonder 8hp. I have been using all of them for many years, and they have held up very well. I am very serious with preventive maintenance and Good fuel!
I had been favoring stihl trimmers as I like the feel but I always seem to have issues with them ,ive had a old echo trimmer that's never had a issue so this year I parked the stihl and got me a 2620 and man what a difference it just works flawlessly without any problems.. I do still use my stihl blower which hasn't had any issues as well as my stihl edger that's been great so for trimmers though go echo...
Great video Brian, I rock all Stihl equipment, 1 Stihl 131r kombi, 2 Stihl KM 56 RC-E with all Stihl Kombi attachments, Hedge trimmer Hs 82 R, 2 Stihl br 200 1 Stihl 600, 700, 800 C.
Thanks for the review Brian. My brother is in the market for a new weed eater. It was karma that you chose today to show this content. He’s going with your recommendation after I showed him this video. Thanks for the informative,& entertaining content. I live vicariously through y’all, due to health reasons. However, it paid off for my brother lol. Have a great night.💯❤️👍🏾😀🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
Been using Echo everything for over 10 years. Never had one break down and very easy to work on. Very reliable
My son uses an Echo 660 for a weed eater. I know, it's old. I bought it right before my son was born and that was 38 years ago. He has 2 now, but still uses the old one and it still runs great. Only problem is it uses 19:1 gas/oil ratio and all the new stuff uses 50:1. He owns Brian's Lawn Care LLC here where we live in SW MO.
Blowers, trimmers and edgers... all Echo at this point. I have the PAS System which lends to the fact.
My day to day go to blowers are Redmax 8500 hip throttle both of mine are over 8 years old and start almost everytime on the second pull, my string trimmers are maruyama I have the BT23L and the BT27L both are superlightweight and have a ton of torque, my hedge trimmers are stihl I have the HL 91k and the HL 100k both are beast and very reliable, and as for mowers I have the Gravely 260 Proturn 27hp kawasaki,10 years old still cuts like new and I just purchased a Ferris ISX 2200 32 hp vanguard with the oilguard system, loving my setup with about 43 lawns im maintaining.
We have over 300 accounts I agree 100% we go with the red max blower’s and the echo trimmer’s also shindaiwa which was bought out by Ecco but the best hedge trimmer is this stihl hs77 t make sure you get the t That’s the one with the fatter tooth blade they cut night and day I have six of them and this is the only trimmer that I will ever buy
My 4 blowers are steal br800× and the br800c side start model and I also im still rocking the br600. But by far the most powerful one is hands down my. New echo bp9010 that and the br800x are my 2 goto blowers. For trimmers I youse my steal 131r with I've had for almost 5 years, and last year I picked up a steal 240r wich is an absolute beast. Great for running the 170 string when I trim around retention pounds and overgrown properties. For line trimming and edging I love yousing my steal 100rx extremely light. Then I have a little steal 40c curved staff for just quick light duty trimming. For hedge trimmers I got the heavy duty 24" attachment for the 131r with the articulating attachment. I also have the steal ht56 hedge trimmer I want the ht 82 wich will cut really heavy duty stuff. But yeah thats what I run for power hand tools in landscaping.
I got my darwins grip yesterday and dude it makes such a huge difference used it for 10mins last night and love it best $60 ever for weed eating
Shindaiwa T235 for trimming and M262 for edging, pole saw, etc. Husqvarna 535L for overgrown trimming (it’s a beast). Husqvarna 350BT blower. Husqvarna 122HD60 hedge trimmers. Stihl MS310 and MS170 chainsaws. Obviously not brand loyal. Just use what works best for me that dealers (I want to deal with) carry. Except the shindaiwa T235, I would drive across the country for that trimmer lol, seriously I would!
Redmax bcz306 trimmers are the way to go. I like the redmax heads, but some people prefer the speed feed heads so you can always put that on. The redmax trimmers are built well and last forever. They also have way more power than my echo trimmers. Only knock is they are slow to start and warm up. Echo wins there.
Redmaxx everything. Trimmers blowers chainsaws best two stroke equipment I've ever owned. My local dealer is awesome they are half the reason it's all I use. I just never have likes stihl stuff it's always felt "lose" and worn out to me. I'd try echo but I don't have a local dealer
I was about to get away from echo trimmers until they came out with the 2620t, hands down I love the fact that it's very powerful and light!! I also use a red max blower but it's the 6500, not big but it still gets the job done.
I use a REDMAX trimmer, Blower and hedge trimmers and use my ECHO trimmer as a back-up.
Also have a Husqvarna line trimmer...Which is a beast for knocking down think brush etc.
Wow I’m 16 years older now going to 17 in June and I bought a red max 8550 and used it today on clumped grass and I love that that back pack blower oh I did buy this week
My favorite blower is the stihl br450. I know it’s not the biggest and baddest blower but it’s been may favorite for years. I’ve owned multiple of them and they are what fits me and my business best.
Just a homeowner here, but I’m an Echo guy. Price is right and both Home Depot and my local dealer stock everything I need to keep up and running. Favorite tool is the PAS system due to the pole saw and brush cutter attachments which are clutch for my wooded lot. I also like my Echo Bearcat chipper a great deal. The only other brand I’m considering is Stihl only for the BR800, but only if I don’t buy a PB-9010 first.
Yeah I had the Darwin's grip 4years & never installed them. I think it's been 3yrs on my Redmax bcz260ts. I will get carried away with it and do a more wider trimming area. Yeap I just lost that grip 2 weeks ago. Gorilla tape is on it until I remember when I'm Walmart to get a bicycle grip. Redmax/Husqvarna blowers gets the job done. I got 10yrs & 8yrs old. Most powerful when bought haven't been in the shop never doing 70 yards Solo. 2017 Redmax bcz260ts is a beast for me. My 2020 Echo pas 2620 isn't bad, just heavier
I run craftsman 140 cc push edgers. Like $400 and will go through anything. Who cares if you have to throw it away after 3 years if you make your money back in the first month. Makes the first edge of the year pretty damn easy with having a push mower engine attached to it. You can also angle the blade for edging beds. I’d look into it. It’s worth it.
I have the stihl HS45 hedge trimmer, it cuts through thick stuff like a champ!
Stihl kombi 131r trimmer, edger, bed edger!!!! 2yrs of ownership no problems
I don't have a go to blower my buddy who had the business used shindaiwa everything, the blowers were pretty good I liked them, I own one Stihl blower because I use to work at a dealer and thought the electric start on it was cool, I never had good luck with echo so for trimmers my go to gas always been the Stihl FS91 and FS131 if I need more power, chainsaws I will only buy Husqvarna, first one was a 272xp and I still have it to this day along with many others
My shindawa weedeater T27 24-26years old commercial use, redmax blowers and edgers, shindawa stick hedge trimmers. Haven't used hand held hedge trimmers in 20 years. We tried stihl equipment for 8-10 years but the suck so we went back to the best.
Mowers
Exmark72 13 yrs old " new bad boy72" backup mowers ,16yo Dixie chopper 50hp 72" ,36hp 72" Dixie chopper 6yo.... yes the 13yo Exmark is still front line and blows everything else away in overall mowing production even the 50 hp Dixie at 16mph
I use all redmax
Echo pb-9010 and of course the 2620, give me these all day and I’ll take them on!
Been running just about everything echo for the last few years.. my oldest 2620 trimmer is at least 4-5 years old and just won’t die lol. I have lately went to a few husqvarna handhelds but after using them this spring I’ve decided I’ll be buying more echo
Brian I can guarantee you someone swiped it. Our stuff is under lock and key because people are mad sketchy nowadays and will steal anything.. It sucks I've lost a blower when I was working on my own same situation someone picked it up and took off probably a quick way to get some money for bad things. Always in permanent marker or some kind of way to mark your equipment that way if it's ever stolen they cannot sell it again find a way to devalue your equipment whether it's putting your name on it you know but doing it in a way they can't just erase it and sell it that's the best tip I have for anyone in the business
I have all stihl products. Long time company been around forever and I'm not necessarily biased to one brand over the other, but I like being able to mix 1 can for all my 2 strokes.
Just got a Shindy T262. Had Echo before. Love the Shindy throttle grip better. Plus the 20" cut. Added the Echo 770. Best blower for the money. Thanks Georgia.
Oldest is SRM-2800 however 322L husqvarna for daily use. Light and powerful, echo 225. But blowers husqvarna 350t and echo 580t love the echo blowers through vent system.
Echo for me all the way but is never to late to try another brand
Love my stihl trimmers for someone that's over six ft tall. Feels more balanced and smooth. I like a little extra weight for control. Head design seems easier to maneuver. I've used echoes but feel is not there.
2620t is the way to go for me trimmer wise. Darwin grips are great for a set trimmer. Not a everyday trimmer for edging ect. Just my opinion.
Sthil BR800C redmax 7500 and Fs91R redmax 260TS are my daily hand tools
And I gotta rock redmax for hedge trimmers my dealer could NOT recommend them enough love it
I’m with u on the blowers, but I’m pretty much red max everything, just does the job very well, lightweight and last as long as maintenance is kept up with. Love the video and thanks for your recommendations. Very nice!!
Red max 8550 has not disappointed me !
We use Stihl FC110- edgers, Stihl FS 131R Weedtrimmers all good but our favorite Weedtrimmers are ‘The’ Shindaiwa T302 *Blower of choice - Shindaiwa EB910-RT (a bit on the heavy side but powerful and love the rugged dirt bike sound with hearing protection of course ..) hedger is Stihl model ? It’s white and I put on my FS 131 R when we hedge .. just ordered the Darwin’s Grip 5.0 which haven’t rec’vd yet probably because ordered yesterday ..!😵💫🤣
I actually purchased a RedMax 8550 today to replace my OG 2001 Shindaiwa EB630. I honestly can say, other than looks there doesn’t seem to be huge performance difference? At lest in the early summer for maintenance. Also, the price was only $65 more than I paid in 01? That’s freaking crazy!
I love the echo Echo 8010s.
Great video like always Brian.
I use the Craftsman all gas trimmer and I love it. I have the craftsman blower also and it's amazing also.
I have the 2620t for an extra 30 bucks its worth it haven't had any problems so far
My Echo 2620T is a BEAST...that gear reduction eats through thick overgrown weeds and them sneaky buckthorns.
I like my stihl br800x, very lightweight and plenty of power. I just picked up a stihl km131r and I really like that too. I am only doing 12-15 houses a week, if I was doing more, I’d be looking into something lighter probably. I like having the detachable unit to swap from trimming to edging from one unit. For hedge trimming and pole saw I use a Milwaukee Quik Lok setup, it’s much lighter and the battery lasts a few hours of hedge trimming. I’ve got several batteries from other Milwaukee tools and could trim hedges all day. I like the ease of maintenance, lack of hassle and upkeep of gas with the hedge trimmer being battery, I don’t use it weekly so it’s a bonus for me. I like the hedge trimmer being on a pole too, the option for an extension for better reach without a ladder.
I ran 110 Kombi with the trimmer attachment for years, it’s heavy but it gets the job done
@@schopscapelawncare9763 I don’t think it’s terribly heavy, I mean comparing to an echo srm-225 it is, but using it for an hour or 2 at a time I can deal with it.
always looking to upgrade our lawn equipment
Shindawa Hedge Trimmers , the best IMO
They also make single sided edge nickel plated trimmers.
Thanks for another great video! We run Stihl products. Edger, trimmer, hedge trimmer and blower (BR 600). Gravely pro stance mower.
Greenworks 80v pro lineup for me love the power of the electric lineup and saves ton on gas and maintenance
Mower: 72" Xmark Lazer X series
Trimmer: Stihl
Blower: Stihl
I use Stihl... but to me... it's all about the dealer and them being there when you need them.
For blowing grass the 770t is a great blower, the 8010t has been great for leaves but doesn’t idle well to be honest(when it’s hot especially). 2620T is the best weed wacker, don’t have red max where I am. Stay away from stihl unless it’s a 200T(all of the 4 mix doesn’t hold up too well). Had the 91r and 94r both had issues.
Schröder. For the price and the 5yr warranty. Got one just to see and not bad at all.
What's up brother love your videos. For my business I use Stihl BR800 backpack blower, Stihl and Husqvarna weedeaters, Stihl and a old shindaiws hedge trimmer. I like Stihl a lot but I will use just about anything to get the job done right.
You should try a dewalt 20v hedge trimmer, reason i tried it is because of weight, easily half of the lightest gas one i could find. With a 5amp batt runs easily and hour probly more like 1.5. On a cemetary we do there are 30 8ft bushes and im 6.5 so i still have to stretch but that's why i wanted the lightest thing. Still cuts 1/2 inch sticks no problem. When we trim in the fall i take 2 batteries and that lasts all day. No 2 stroke smell, really quiet, light. I believe it has to be the best till a brushless one comes out. Not sure if Milwaukee makes one but I'm sure that would be good too. Sorry for this being lengthy, i just think they're that great
