I have a shindaiwa that I have owned for 15 years. It’s a pretty big weed trimmer as I got it when I lived on farm. I do routine maintenance every year, and don’t store it with fuel in it at end of year. It has never not started.
Last year I got a kobalt for my wife to use as she doesn’t like lugging around the heavy Shindaiwa. It was pretty weak strength wise honestly. Took it back. Need to re-evaluate what’s available this year
My opinion is for a small yard with little trimming go electric. Otherwise stay gas or use chemicals
