Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

The $100 cheapy's aren't cutting it anymore. Looking to spend around $300-$350. I know I want a straight shaft. Any suggestions on brand and models. Was looking at Echo, Stihl and Redmax. Have no idea which is better. Being used for large residential home. 2 times a week.

In my experience, Echo is now the best bang for the buck.  I own at least five pieces of Echo equipment including two trimmers.  Great equipment at good prices.
