Chrome won't get you home
I have been using a husqvarna 232R brush cutter to trim around my place for the last 12 years. It's a good machine and owes me nothing. It is overkill for weekly trimming and I feel it slows me down - a conventional trimmer would be faster.
I have been eyeing a Redmax BCZ260TS. It's light and gets good press. It's the most expensive unit I am considering at 399.00
The Husqvarna 525LST is supposedly the orange version of the redmax offered at 339.00. With a $60 price difference, I don't know how it could be the same machine.
I have the opportunity to buy an Echo or Shindaiwa at 20% off MSRP. They have lots of choices.
Leaning towards a Shindaiwa T282 for 312.00 out the door.
Willing to consider the Echo trimmers as well if anyone has a compelling review.
I appreciate your feedback and opinions!
