    I'm running a Shindaiwa 22T home pro that I inherited when my dad died more than 25 years ago . I remember the time I asked my dad why he bought a no name trimer , he told me "This is good stuff" . Dad was right, it is good stuff.

    I haven’t run many, but what I’ve learned is that Echo/Shin is at the top of the heap for blowers and trimmers

    Yep, it’s on there. They could put some words to the picture but most people wouldn’t read it anyways.

    You are definitely right the most people look at is to make sure it the size line they want
