The stihl fs55 and fs90 etc have horrendous vibration levels! I used one for an hour and got rid of it instantly.

 

I have a tanaka tbc230s for verti strimming and it's much better, though I have still not actually found a small straight shaft loop handle strimmer that's low on vibes.

 

The tanaka is on it's 3rd year without a single repair required. Starts easily and is mega light in weight.
