Husqvarna 223L 18-Inch 24.5cc 2-Stroke Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer

Lightweight trimmer that is perfect for landowners and semi-professionals looking for the quality of Husqvarna's E-Tech engine and the ergonomic features unique to a straight shaft. Easy starting with air purge. Strong, braided wire cable drive and durable gear box that increases reliability. Comes with easy loading T35 bump trimmer head. Blade capable.
Customer Review: Light and Powerful
I just bought the 223L to replace a 5 year old, lightly used Echo SRM-210i which froze-up (piston is hung in the cylinder). Wished I had bought the Husqvarna when I bought the Echo. Pros: * Easy to start and stay running. (The Echo would start easy but it would tend to stall (and sometimes quit until it warmed up.) * Very lightweight. * Easy to maneuver - it just glides across the ground. * Powerful - this machine cuts through 1/4" brush with no problems using stock string. Cons: Only has a two year warranty compared to Echo's 5 years. However, the place I bought the Husq (Home Improvement store starting with L) had a 3 extended warranty for $39. The total price of the Husqvarna and the extended warranty was about in line with Echo's compatible model (which has a smaller engine).
