Looking For Cheap, but Reliable String Trimmer.

Four day weekend, so hopefully I will be able to get to the shop on Friday. With the Echo, does anyone know how the warranty works? I know it says 2years for commercial and 5years for homeowner, or whatever, but I don't understand which I would fall under. And also, do you have a link to the Husqvarna, I had quickly searched for it and only saw one from 2003? Thanks.
 
Sure looks nice, but it is a bit out of budget.
Oh, I guess what I meant with the warranty is if they have like a definition for commercial and homeowner. Like if someone lived on a huge farm and had a mile length of fence to trim with heavy brush, which I don't know how long that would take, but let's say 3 hours continuous every two weeks, they would fall under homeowner, even though me being "commercial" would only be at about 2 hours tops a week, which would be 4 hours total every two weeks, just one hour more than our farmer friend. So I suppose it makes sense being a business that I would be commercial, but I hadn't look into the warranty much, so I was just wondering. Thanks
 
Re: Looking For Cheap, but Reliable String Trimmer. Kawasaki?

I just went to the lawn mower shop and he showed me a few models. He said that the Echo is a good one, but that most professionals are switching to a Kawasaki something 27, I think, because it is light for its size and has a more powerful engine. I'll look up the model, but it is $229, and he has one left, and he said that the new shipment will be a little bit more expensive, but only about ten dollars. Do any of you know anything about this model?

Hey LMF, thats the one we got. It is an excellent trimmer. I had to get use to it but once I did, I couldn't believe I procrastinated as long as I did. The chainsaw attachment works a lot better than I could have imagined. All around excellent choice for a trimmer. Cheers:thumbsup:
 
See what mean. Carscw agrees that I don't know what I am talking about. Take it for a grain of salt.

LOL! I know I don't know anything! If I did, I wouldn't have married my first wife, dropped out of college or ever touched alcohol!:ashamed: But I digress. A good trouble free trimmer will save your day. Have you ever struggled to get one started first thing in the morning? It can crash your whole day if you let it. Get good gear, have a dealer in your pocket and be diligent in all equipment maintenance.
