I have a few yard projects coming up and I had a very good expericance at work with a Stihl power broom.

I also learned while using this tool that you can remove the attachment and put on another tool (one motor, weedwacker, hedge trimmer, power broom etc etc) Its a very clever system and i've narrowed down the search to either the Stihl system which I used before or a similar setup from Husqvarna.
Both have similar price points for different motors and attachments.
Does anyone here have any recommendations? (Or any other similar products)
