Wife's New Stihl FS 131

[fantastic]

anyone who thinks Stihl makes the best equipment is delusional. its by far the least reliable. redmax shindawia were the best . now We are forced to buy echo. no way am ever buying another Stihl product ever. zama carbs!

The only person whining about Stihl being the best, in this thread, is you. Last time I checked even a Redmax is capable of failure as well.

Stihl is having that "Double Warranty" promotion. Buy either a 6 pack of their Ultra Oil or 1 Gal of Moto Mix to get 4 years of warranty. We got that 4 yr warranty on our FS40C too. Another note is what's holding both weed eater's on the wall are guitar holders.

The double warranty has been a thing for many years, not sure when it started. What's new is that they doubled the base warranty on "power tools" (not chainsaws or cut-quicks) from 1yr to 2yr. The 1yr & 2yr warranties can be doubled with the purchase of an oil six-pack or a gallon of MotoMix. (non commercial use only, ie home owners)
