Ok, so I've been a bit embarrassed to respond, but here we go.
I needed a new trimmer, but the big names just seemed pricey. In a moment
of weakness, I picked up a Maruyama trimmer at Costco about four years ago.
Nice big 2 cycle engine, trimmer only, I think it was $79, so I figured I'd
get a few years out of it. It's still going strong, I try to empty the tank
each year, but definitely empty the carb. It starts every time and runs
like a champ. The string feed mechanism is not the greatest, so I'm
replacing it this year, but otherwise, a stupid simple and consistent
device.
The only real downside is that it's kind of a royal blue; real wimpy color.
. . . . <grin>
