I have a small yard and not a ton of money to spend so don't really feel the need to buy an commercial grade heavy duty trimmer, which would be great, but not in the budget.
For several years now, I've gotten by with a Craftsman battery powered trimmer. Most of the time it got the job done but I was never really satisfied with it. Now I'm looking to replace it with an economical 2-cycle.
Today I was at Home Depot and saw three curved shaft trimmers in the price range I'm thinking. A Homelite for $70, a Ryobi for $100 and an Echo for $149. Then as I recall, I saw another area store that had a Husqvarna on sale for around $150.
So, I'm curious what experiences you all have and if you can make some recommendations for me.
Thanks!
