Echo Brand is the best, in gas powered weed trimmers. I am now the proud owner of two of these fine machines. The best thing about Echo brand without a doubt, they are always reliable with the easiest starting of any gas powered piece of equipment I own. I have their blower as well with the same comment. I have rentals but I am not a professional landscaper. J.B.

If your looking for a "professional" grade machine with a more affordable price, this is the unit for you! I've owned some of the higher cost competitors machines and this Echo performs just as well... I bought my first Echo trimmer second hand approx. 10 yrs. ago and it's still running strong; no reason not to expect the same from this one. Flash forward 6 years! Started having some issues with the trimmer after my second season of use. Seemed to lose power and became increasingly difficult to start. After trying to clean the carburetor with no real results, I replaced it. The repair seemed to work for a while, but then the same issues started up. I'm not sure what Echo did to their products, but it wasn't helpful. I have since switched back to Stihl and haven't used the Echo for a while now. Looks like it might end up being an expensive decoration for the barn... kinda sucks. Read full review

The Echo SRM-225 is the best weed trimmer I have ever used. It starts easily. It runs great without any hesitation or stalling. It has plenty of power to tackle even heavy grass. The line is easy to load. No complaints whatsoever with this trimmer

After installation I put through it threw 3 1/2 hours of rigorous use and I guarantee to match it up against any other weed eater on the market today and it will maintain evenness or outbeat any other brand. Built to run!! Thanks!!!

So although I am an Echo fan I am less than impressed with this trimmer head. The SRM-225 Power head is awesome, hedge trimmer attachment is nice, Blower is ok for your average homeowner. But the trimmer head on this just doesn't cut it for me. This is my only complaint. I will invest hopefully in one to replace it as long as Echo makes one I can deam good.
