SECTLANDSCAPING is on a distinguished road

The only echo product I would take over stihls is a hedge trimmer and the newer backpacks. The br600 just dont have enough power to compete and the hedge trimmer price isnt justified.

Other then that I would go with stihl and redmax for everything else.

Both are good but it well worth the extra $$ to get the Stihl.
