STIHL FS 38
#13 in GasFull review
A small, light gas trimmer for tidying the edges of a typical suburban lot. Buyers with thick weeds or long fence lines should look at a straight shaft model.

STIHL FS 91 R
#15 in GasFull review
For acreage, ditches and thick weeds where a 27 cc trimmer bogs down. Too heavy and costly for an ordinary yard.
