Ok guys, need a bit of assistance! Nothing to do with metal or wood, but as most of us have gardens Im hoping someone will be more educated on this dilemma than I am!!
I need to buy a new whipper snipper as my FS36 has finally given up the ghost and I also want to buy a blower.
Whipper Snipper:
I know there are a 1001 different units I could have chosen but Ive narrowed it down to two, a 4 stroke Honda unit and 2 stroke Sthil.

Blower:
Likewise, a 4 stroke Honda and a 2 stroke Sthil

The Honda whipper-snipper is a bit heavier and a bit quieter and will start forever after one or two pulls. The Sthil needs 2 stroke fuel mixing and keeping separate from my Honda mower's unleaded. How reliable will it be at starting??? On the plus side, its lighter, has more power and a tap to extend the wire head.
For the Blower, 4-stroke Honda is a bit heavier and again will always start. Still blows a bit more and a bit faster.
My old Sthil was a real pain to get going over the last few years whereas my 15 year old Honda 4 stroke will usually start with about half a pull, never more than 2. Having said that, I know the newest Sthil 2 stroke's are a far cry from the old units.
Any thoughts or experiences? I know both brands are very good but can't decide. I wonder if in reality if there is a practical difference?
Thoughts and advice please.
Thx
Jon
