I have 5 professional trimmers 3 Stihl and 2 Husqvarna. If I had to choose just 1 it would be the Husky 525LS. It has been ran hard and never once given me a moments trouble. It cranks super easy and has instant throttle response. It also has an adjustable carburetor if you have a splined screwdriver.
The Stihl FS94R is also a great lightweight trimmer with an adjustable carburetor. The only problem I had with it is that the head bolts came loose but some threadlocker fixed that. It starts and runs great.
I have a new Stihl FS111RX 4-Mix. It's still too new to tell but it starts and runs great. The low end torque made by this trimmer is awesome. It will turn over 9100 RPM with 9" of string out the head. It's a tad heavier than the other trimmers I already mentioned.
I always run Speed Feed heads on my trimmers. They allow you to load line really fast without taking the head apart.
Bottom line whatever trimmer you get make sure you have a servicing dealer nearby. Good luck on your search for a trimmer.
