Crap in what respect?

Power, weight, balance, quality of cut etc.

Seemed gutless and not as well balanced in your hands

The balance is something you cannot do anything about except get used to it, it may be not as bad as you think, just different.

 

Gutless? An Echo will be tight to begin with (both engine and blades) and will improve with use. Always assuming that it has been correctly set up by the supplying dealer in terms of carb adjustment.

Cheers for the info about the tightness cos in its defence it did seem a bit better as the day wore on

Give it a weeks work, then let us know what you think.

Hi Gary we picked up an Echo hedge trimmera few months back. We thought exactly the same as you but yes when it loosens up it will run a lot better you won't be dissapointed

I like my Echo kit, the only kit I haven't modified and always works as it should:thumbup:

I like my echo hedge trimmers. The only kit I haven't had problems with.

Unlike all the others.
