I would go Stihl. I was looking through my Warranty file for something else and noticed the dates on my Stihl owners manuals. The newest was 9 years old and they all get used. I have never done anything with any of the 4 tools but blow the dust out of the air filter. And keep them full of real gas and Stihl oil. They all Start.easily and run till I get tired of running them.
