I've used a tanaka which is made by echo or is it the other way around. Either way... the look identical and they feel identical. I had good luck with. Just make sure you keep the chain oiled and tighten properly..

I have the Stihl. I bought the longest one they make and although I don't use it on a regular basis I really like it. Echo makes one also which could also go by the Power Pruner name. That looks like a good product also. I also bought the hedge trimmer attatchment for my pruner and that comes in handy although it's pretty heavy to be using it all day. Great for trimming thee tops of evergreens that have gotten to high.

We also have a stihl pole pruner and we love it. It seems it would be a very good money maker and it speeds up production. It does get a bit heavy on the arms if you dont have the strap positioned right, only when its fully extended though.

Ive been real pleased with my pruner attachment
that goes on the ryobi. It does a good quick
job on 5inch and under.

We ordered a Toro (Maruyama) this week. Mainly bought it because they are on sale for $329. Kinda tough not to buy it for that price.

Maruyama is supposed to be a top brand nothing wrong with them

I opted to purchase the Echo over the Stihl. It has a longer reach than Stihls biggest model and has a 12" bar as opposed to a 10" bar on the Stihl. The handle setup is a little more comfortable to use as well.

One word: STIHL!

I tried the stihl and echo pole trimmers and bought the echo for the same reasons runner did. I am very happy with the job mine does, although it does get a little heavy when using it for a while.I was also impressed at how quick it cuts through the larger branches.
