On my trailer I now have echo 2601, redmax 2500 and stihle fs 85!.
The echo is older and it had replaced a sthl fs 74 years ago. The redmax is 2 weeks old. It didn't really impress me as great but I figure it will still be a good trimmer and plan to keep it. The stihl is new today and seems to do a really nice job.
I will be switching to all stihl as attrition requires in the future. The jd bp40 decide to break in the handle/throttle control today. It will make it through the season but will probably be relegated to back up during leaf season.
It sure would be nice to "test drive" these dang hand helds instead of having to buy to find out how they work...
