Well what kind do you prefer??

For home domestic work I would use a product called Mitox which is distributed in the UK.
It is chinese production but build quality controlled by an English company. Reliable and full parts and warranty back up.
We might not like chinese production but all manufacturers are doing it.
Stihl are big in china for assembly.

Professional I would choose Husqvarna, Efco (Emak) or Stihl.
Kawasaki an option but very expensive over here.
Each manufacturer has good machines for different applications.

Husqvarna for small saws, Stihl for big saws and Emak do good machines but mostly for the 2 stroke engines

I'll go with the Stihl Equipment, used the Echo stuff and it work well But it's not the Stihl power.

I have many but like to use my weedeater from Walmart $70 it light and I only trim grass with it.
A $350 trimmer will not trim any better than a cheap one

I always liked stihl, but now I see that cheaper brands are just as good, so I bought McCulloch 28cc trimmer and MEEC 49cc chainsaw last time. Still have a stihl chainsaw thats the favourit.

we use:

-Echo Blowers, nothing comes close to the PB770

-shindaiwa hedge trimmers, IMO they are by far the best

-echo/shindaiwa line trimmers, they are equal to each other

-SCAG 36" and above mowers

-Honda HRC-216 21" mowers, haven't really tried any other mowers, we have always just bought Honda

-Stihl/echo chainsaws, dont knock too many trees down but they seem to get the job done everytime


I personally am not a fan of any Stihl equipment except their chainsaws. Everything we have bought that was Stihl never really cut it.

Everyone has their own opinion on equipment and their own experiences. This is the equipment we use and we work it like crazy and its the only one thats held up to real commercial standards.
