This is the best selling gas powered trimmer from Tanaka. Another with a 2 stroke engine on-board, the Tanaka is unbelievably powerful, highly user friendly and well worth the price tag.

The honest answer is if you've got 200 bucks to spend on a commercial standard gas weed trimmer, make sure it's one of the two.
