I bought this echo cause it was affordable. 199.99 plus 5 year warranty with it. I've had it 6 months now and all I can say about it is I love it. I've knocked down 3 ft tall grass with it I've ran it for 6 hours strait. Have not had 1 problem with it.

We switched to Echo products in 2014 and have not looked back. Everything we have bought or replaced we did with Echo. I have had some products that we had issues with but overall it has been a great experience. I have 2 PAS 225 units and 2 PAS 266 units. I also have a regular 266 SRM I think it is. I tried a PAS 280 unit and could not get it to run and finally my dealer gave me another one in its place and it would not run either. Not sure to this day why not. My dealer too care of me on a trade in to get rid of it. I also have two hand held blowers and a 760 I think the number is back pack blower as well as a 590 Timberwolf chainsaw and two sets of hedge trimmers. So far my overall Echo experience has been great.
I have E the 225 also as my backup trimmer . I love using on my big accounts because it's so much lighter then my Stihl fs 90. The only problem I have is I have to use it every other yard. It doesn't want to start back up till it cools down I guess. It's like 2 years old.
Yeah mine is always fine the next day also. It's strange
When I bought my stander last year they gave me a free husqavarna trimmer. Idk the model number but it's super light as well. But I think it needs a carb cleaning. It doesn't want to stay running
