[QUOTE="Solid State, post: 1081725, member: 22186"] WOW! Tremendous responses. Thanks for all your inputs. I went to Home Depot where they have three types of Echo's on display - a homeowner curved shaft, a commercial straight shaft and a heavy duty commercial straight shaft. The homeowner one was very light and the line reel used two strips of line that were pre-cut and inserted by hand with no auto line feed so that wont work for me. The commercial straight shaft one felt OK, but seemed to need a strap as it was heavier than my old Echo. It also had a reduced starter pull feature that was good, but did not have a strap or a link on the shaft to attach a strap (maybe you can purchase optionally?). It used a auto feed dual line deal. The heavy duty one was indeed heavy duty without the reduced pull feature. It was pretty heavy and had a link for a strap, but it appeared that the strap was not included. I think this one is too heavy. I did like that it had 20% more output and an engine vibration reduction feature. So Goldilocks thinks maybe the straight shaft lighter commercial Echo with a strap. Thanks for all you help. I’m surprised that so many DRN’ers have distinct loyalties to weed wacker brands – almost a Honda vs. Yamaha vs. Suzuki vs. Kawasaki thread! [/QUOTE]
