    This is a review of Stihl's FS 240 R two stroke trimmer. This trimmer is so advanced with the latest technology and advancements, it is not even funny. It will be your pleasure to own one and use one! Yet, there is one major problem with this unit.

    My 240r lives in my loungeroom, along with the 94r, bg86, ms231. I need a shed. You convinced me a couple of years ago, still loving it

    I have a FS250r still screaming after 22 years. It did end up with fresh top end after some confusion that ended up with me replacing it with a FS240r a few years ago, then I got a call the 250 was fixed. I still like the 250 overall for raw, violent power and lower weight, but the 240 is right there and a bit more… refined.
    Love them both.

      The 250 is also my all time favorite; Raw power baby, awesome unit. Never get rid of it! Thanks for watching and have a great week!

    I just bought one about a week ago and I love it I’m 6’7 so the longer shaft definitely helps super comfortable to use and has insane power if anybody’s thinking about buying one just know it’s better than all of the four mix weed eaters and it’s better than all the Echo weedeaters I’ve used them all trust me the 240 is the way to go

    • @briancocks1408
      @briancocks1408 Před 2 lety +1

      What cutting head and line diameter do you use? I have 2 FS240R's and i use the Auto Cut 36-2 with a .130 line and it cuts through just about anything. I've cut through clumps of grass, poison oak and even through barbed wire (by accident, of course). Stihl in their infinite wisdom has stopped producing the 36-2 and as far as i can tell they have no replacement cutting line that will accept .130 line. Running anything less is like putting a 1960's VW Bug engine in a Ferrari. Way to go Stihl. ECHO SRM-410X here i come.

    For a couple bucks more, the Echo SRM 410U comes with a 47.5 cc motor, steel guard, made in Japan and a 5 year warranty. If STIHL is so great, why do they offer a 1 year warranty?

Bright a strong flashlight with lots of batteries because it better to cut at night because it is cooler. Yeah baby. Peace out my new friend.
