6 commentsIf I were to buy that Ego T6, I expect that it would be unserviceable e-waste within 5 years, or less.
I switched to electric yard stuff and am super happy with it.
No more mixing various ratios of gas and oil, then storing the flammable and aromatic gas in the garage.
Electric chainsaw, weedeater, hedge trimmer - all low maintenance, easy to use, lots quieter. The batteries are shared with all my other tools.
