What kind of weed-eater do you use? Or what's the best weed eater in your opinion? I need some ideas because my previous one has bought the farm. :frown:
It has a number of attachments - I like the hedge trimmer head that works like a sickle bar and does not throw the grass clippings all over - Nice if you have poison ivy or oak.
Can't go wrong with Stihl. I have a John Deere that has been trouble free for years. Only thing I don't like about it is the nylon shoulder strap that cuts into the side of my neck. So whatever brand you decide on be sure to get a padded shoulder strap.
My vote is for echo. Mine has been put through the wringer. I out a circular saw blade on it and use it for clearing saplings and heavy briars. Works great, cuts them right down to the ground. Any string trimming that it sees is usuall very overgrown stuff inthe woods or fence rows. I have been very happy with it. I have just kept the shaft lubed and replaced the air filter and that's about it.

Stihl huh? It sounds like that is everyone's weed-eater of choice. I need to get one for my yard, I think I'll take everyone's advice. If I can get 10 years out of mine I'll be happy.:thumbsup:
