I'm going to buy an Echo gas powered pole saw. I've never owned a pole saw but I sure could have used one last year.
Echo has a few models and I am not sure why I would pick one over the other.
The PPF-2620 is fixed shaft, 8' reach.
The PPT-260 telescopes to 12' and has a loop handle, whereas PPT-260H is the same with a straight handle.
I could easily use the 12' version, unless there is a good reason to avoid telescoping tools. The straight vs loop handle has me stumped.
Do Stihl or Husky make a better tool for the same price? I have been very happy with my Echo tools over the years but I will entertain suggestions.
